Macchia

Beagle · Male

Macchia was surrendered together with his companion Monica and her son. Supposedly, the owners were no longer able to care for the dogs. Now Mama, Papa, and the child are sitting in our partner animal shelter, hoping to be seen and that the gate will open for them forever. Macchia is a charmer. He is very people-oriented, walks well on the leash, and keeps an eye on his humans during walks. He gets along well with all other dogs and shows himself to be friendly. Macchia also approaches strangers without worry and lets himself be petted and cuddled. We are looking for a family or single person for Macchia who will love him, support him, and never abandon him again. Macchia loves being with his people, enjoys varied walks, and of course cuddle time must not be missing. A first-time dog owner may live in the family. Children should be of primary school age and know how to handle animals responsibly. If you have questions about Macchia, please feel free to get in touch. All dogs are microchipped, vaccinated upon departure, and travel with an EU pet passport in a transport registered with the German Veterinary Office.

Macchia wurde zusammen mit seine Freundin Monica und ihrem Sohn abgegeben. Angeblich konnte man sich nicht mehr um die Hunde kümmern. Es sind Mama, Papa und das Kind, die nun in unserem Kooperationstierheim sitzen und hoffen, dass sie gesehen werden und sich die Gittertür für immer öffnet. Macchia ist einer Charmeur, er ist sehr menschenbezogen, geht gut an der Leine und achtet beim Gassigang auf seine Menschen. Er kommt mit allen Artgenossen gut zurecht, zeigt sich freundlich. Macchia geht auch auf fremde Menschen unbekümmert zu, lässt sich streicheln und knuddeln. Wir suchen für Macchia eine Familie oder Einzelperson, die ihn liebt, fördert und nie mehr im Stich lässt. Macchia liebt es, bei seinen Menschen zu sein, sie freut sich über abwechslungsreiche Spaziergänge und natürlich dürfen Kuschelstunden nicht fehlen. Gerne kann ein Ersthund in der Familie leben. Kinder sollten im Grundschulalter sein und den verantwortungsvollen Umgang mit Tieren kennen. Haben Sie Fragen zu Macchia, dann nehmen Sie gerne Kontakt auf. Alle Hunde sind bei Ausreise gechipt, geimpft und reisen mit einem EU Ausweis in einem beim deutschen Veterinäramt registrierten Transport.

About Macchia

What life with Macchia looks like

Macchia is a small beagle dog waiting at Tierschutzverein Furbys FellFreunde in Bornheim.

A 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. Many dogs and cats leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport, but this varies by shelter, so confirm what is included with the shelter.

Frequently asked

Adopting Macchia, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Macchia?: Use the "View on shelter website" button on this page, which takes you to the shelter's own page. Tierschutzverein Furbys FellFreunde handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Macchia on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Macchia if I live in another country?: Often, but it depends on the shelter and the countries involved. Some rescues place animals abroad and some only adopt out locally, so ask Tierschutzverein Furbys FellFreunde whether they will for Macchia, what they require (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Macchia already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: Tierschutzverein Furbys FellFreunde lists Macchia as vaccinated and microchipped. The adoption fee, and what it covers, is set by Tierschutzverein Furbys FellFreunde, so confirm with them what is included (vaccinations, microchip, sterilization, paperwork) and ask about specific vaccines, recent bloodwork or chronic conditions.
What happens if Macchia isn't the right fit?: Many rescues take an animal back if an adoption doesn't work, but policies differ, so ask Tierschutzverein Furbys FellFreunde about its return policy before you adopt. If things aren't working, talk it through with them early rather than rehoming privately; they know Macchia 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.
