How do I contact the shelter about Malin?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierhilfe Franken e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Malin on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Malin if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierhilfe Franken 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 Malin 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 Malin 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 Franken e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Malin 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.

Malin

Mixed Breed · Female

Malin is a handsome, friendly puppy dog with a heartwarming gaze that melts hearts. The young fellow is well-bred but needs people who can guide him with love and consistency, as he shows some insecurity in certain situations. As a primary caregiver, he clearly prefers the female gender, while male companions are still a bit of a mystery to him at the moment. Our handsome is a sporty type, active, dynamic, and loves long walks in nature. At home, he shows himself as a loving, very well-mannered roommate who seeks the closeness of his human. Malin wants a home with people who understand dogs, can give him the necessary security, and work with his nature. Since the young fellow is somewhat hunting-motivated and also likes to be the boss sometimes, cats, small pets, or a second fellow animal in the household would not feel comfortable. A house with an enclosed garden would be ideal for him as a home. Malin is a great dog with a lot of potential and a faithful companion – just like the saying goes: "Heaven loves those who send them a friend!"

DE·Show original

Malin ist ein bildhübscher, netter Hundebub mit einem treuherzigen Blick, der Herzen schmelzen lässt. Der junge Mann ist gut erzogen, benötigt jedoch Menschen, die ihm liebevoll, aber konsequent den Weg weisen, da er in manchen Situationen etwas Unsicherheit zeigt. Als Bezugsperson bevorzugt er eindeutig das weibliche Geschlecht, Männer sind ihm, warum auch immer, im Moment noch etwas suspekt. Unser Hübscher ist ein sportlicher Typ, aktiv, dynamisch und liebt dementsprechend ausgiebige Spaziergänge in der Natur. Zu Hause angekommen zeigt er sich als liebevoller, sehr verschmuster Mitbewohner, der die Nähe seines Menschen sucht. Malin möchte ein Zuhause bei Menschen mit etwas Hundeverstand, die ihm die nötige Sicherheit geben, mit ihm arbeiten und seinem Wesen nach auslasten. Da der junge Mann etwas jagdlich motiviert ist und auch gerne mal Chef spielt, würden sich Katzen, Kleintiere oder ein zweiter Artgenosse in der Wohngemeinschaft u. E. nicht wohlfühlen. Ein Haus mit eingezäuntem Garten wäre für ihn als Domizil ideal. Malin ist ein toller Hund mit viel Potential und ein treuer Weggefährte – ganz nach dem Sprichwort: „Wen der Himmel liebt, dem schickt er einen Freund“!

About Malin

What life with Malin looks like

Malin is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierhilfe Franken e.V. in Lauf.

An 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.
