Louisa

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 3 years

I-No.: h-korfu-louisa-f-0125 Update May 2025: Louisa is currently well-adjusted with the appropriate medication and has been seizure-free for a few weeks. Nevertheless, a shelter is not the right place for a dog with epilepsy. Louisa is completely compatible with other dogs. January 2025: Louisa is about 2 years old and weighs around 40kg with a shoulder height of approximately 65cm. She was found tied to a gate outside the animal shelter. At present, Louisa is housed alone as it was discovered that she has epilepsy. The pretty lady dog is very friendly towards humans. Due to her condition, Louisa is an emergency case and is in urgent need of a quiet, loving home! All dogs are initially vaccinated, microchipped, and have an EU pet passport.

I-Nr.: h-korfu-louisa-f-0125 Update Mai 2025: Louisa ist mit entsprechenden Medikamenten zur Zeit gut eingestellt und ist schon seit ein paar Wochen anfallsfrei. Trotzdem ist ein Shelter nicht der richtige Ort für einen Hund mit Epilepsie. Mit anderen Hunden ist Louisa total verträglich. Januar 2025: Louisa ist ca. 2 Jahre alt und wiegt etwa 40kg bei einer Schulterhöhe von ca. 65cm. Sie wurde auf der Straße zum Tierheim an einem Tor angebunden ausgesetzt. Zur Zeit ist Louisa noch alleine untergebracht, da sich herausgestellt hat, dass sie Epilepsie hat. Zum Menschen ist die hübsche Hundelady sehr freundlich. Aufgrund ihrer Erkrankung ist Louisa ein Notfall und sucht besonders dringend ein ruhiges, liebevolles Zuhause! Alle Hunde sind erstgeimpft, gechipt und haben einen EU-Heimtierausweis. 20260708 03 Louisa Juli 2026 20260708 02 Louisa Juli 2026 20260708 01 Louisa Juli 2026 20260529 02 Louisa Mai 2026

About Louisa

What life with Louisa looks like

Louisa is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierhilfe Korfu e.V. in Ratingen.

An young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇩🇪Adopting from Germany

German rescues typically require an in-person home visit (Vorkontrolle) or detailed video home check before approving adoption. Animals leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with a valid EU pet passport. Adoption fees usually fall between €250 and €450, covering veterinary preparation.

Frequently asked

Adopting Louisa, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Louisa?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierhilfe Korfu e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Louisa on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Louisa if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierhilfe Korfu e.V. will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Louisa already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Louisa isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Tierhilfe Korfu e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Louisa and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (DE). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
