Malou

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 6 years

January 2020 | 17kg | 50cm | Rhodos Animal Shelter This little fluffy mouse was brought to the animal shelter with her eight puppies in the summer of 2022. She was probably abandoned. All eight puppies have already found their forever homes, and as unfortunately is often the case, the mother has not yet found her place. But that should change, of course! Name is really a very easygoing and content dog. She doesn't need much, just attention and being petted. She comes up to people openly and curiously and immediately leans against them. When she looks at you with her round eyes, you are immediately in love. She is also open and very caring towards other dogs. Whether with other female dog or males, she gets along with everyone. We can imagine her very well as a first-time dog and also with (smaller) children due to her gentle nature. The perfect family dog. PAW HEROES e.V.

*Januar 2020 | 17kg | 50cm | Tierheim Rhodos Diese kleine strubbelige Maus wurde zusammen mit ihren acht Welpen im Sommer 2022 ins Tierheim gebracht. Vermutlich wurde sie ausgesetzt. Alle acht Welpen haben bereits ihr Für Immer Zuhause gefunden und wie das leider immer so ist, hat die Mama noch nicht ihren Platz gefunden. Aber das soll sich natürlich ändern! Name ist wirklich eine sehr unkomplizierte und genügsame Hündin. Sie möchte nicht viel, nur Aufmerksamkeit und gestreichelt werden. Sie kommt offen und neugierig auf Menschen zu und lehnt sich sofort an. Schaut sie einen dann mit ihren Kulleraugen an, hat man sich sofort verliebt. Auch anderen Hunden gegenüber ist sie offen und auch sehr fürsorglich. Egal ob mit anderen Hündinnen oder Rüden, sie versteht sich mit jedem. Wir können sie uns sehr gut als Anfängerhund vorstellen und durch ihre sanfte Art auch mit (kleineren) Kindern. Die perfekte Familienhündin. PAW HEROES e.V.

About Malou

What life with Malou looks like

Malou is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at og:image in Germany.

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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Malou, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Malou?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. og:image handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Malou on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Malou if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — og:image 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 Malou 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 Malou 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 og:image early rather than rehoming privately; they know Malou 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.
