How do I contact the shelter about Lucy (HSH)?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Ludwigsburg handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Lucy (HSH) on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Lucy (HSH) if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Ludwigsburg 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 Lucy (HSH) 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 Lucy (HSH) 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 Tierheim Ludwigsburg early rather than rehoming privately; they know Lucy (HSH) 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.

Lucy (HSH)

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 4 years

Lucy, a Kangal-mix female dog, spayed, born December 1, 2022. Lucy is a petite, very shy Kangal-mix puppy, born on December 1, 2022, weighing around 27 kilograms and of medium size. She has been spayed and was incredibly fortunate to be adopted by a loving family. Unfortunately, Lucy had to leave her home again because her owner became seriously ill. Lucy is accustomed to apartment living and enjoys riding in the car, which demonstrates her adaptability. However, she shows fear and feels uncomfortable around children. In contrast, she gets along wonderfully with other dogs and loves their company. Therefore, we are looking for a calm home for Lucy—ideally one with a fenced-in garden where she can move around safely. An arrangement as a second dog would be ideal, as she appreciates the company of other dogs. Lucy loves long walks and can already stay alone for several hours, making her a great fit for responsible working individuals. Due to her sensitive and shy nature, Lucy needs people who will give her time and patience and carefully build trust with her. Who will give this gentle, currently very anxious Lucy a second chance at a loving, permanent home?

Lucy, Kangal-Mix, Hündin, kastriert, geb. 01.12.2022 Lucy ist eine zierliche, sehr schüchterne Kangalmischlingshündin, geboren am 1. Dezember 2022, etwa 27 Kilogramm leicht und mittelgroß. Sie wurde kastriert und hatte das große Glück, von einer liebevollen Familie adoptiert zu werden. Leider musste Lucy ihr Zuhause wieder verlassen, da ihr Herrchen schwer erkrankt ist. Lucy kennt das Leben in der Wohnung und fährt gerne im Auto mit, was ihre Anpassungsfähigkeit zeigt. Bei Kindern zeigt sie jedoch Angst und fühlt sich unwohl. Im Umgang mit Artgenossen ist sie hingegen sehr verträglich und freut sich über Gesellschaft. Für Lucy suchen wir daher ein ruhiges Zuhause, idealerweise mit einem eingezäunten Garten, in dem sie sich sicher bewegen kann. Ein Platz als Zweithund wäre optimal, da sie die Nähe zu anderen Hunden schätzt. Lucy liebt ausgiebige Spaziergänge und kann bereits einige Stunden alleine bleiben, was sie für verantwortungsbewusste Berufstätige geeignet macht. Aufgrund ihrer sensiblen und schüchternen Natur benötigt sie Menschen, die ihr Zeit und Geduld schenken und behutsam Vertrauen aufbauen. Wer gibt der sanften, momentan sehr ängstlichen Lucy eine zweite Chance auf ein liebevolles, dauerhaftes Zuhause?

About Lucy (HSH)

What life with Lucy (HSH) looks like

Lucy (HSH) is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Ludwigsburg in Ludwigsburg.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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.
