Mara

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Senior · 12 years

Unsere liebenswerte Mara kam als Abgabetier zu uns und versteht nun die Welt nicht mehr. Auch wenn sie Menschen gegenüber aufgeschlossen ist und mit uns wirklich gut klar kommt, ist sie im Tierheim sehr unglücklich und möchte schnellstmöglich ihre Köfferchen packen. Mara zeigt sich sehr umweltsicher, egal ob LKW, Traktor oder Jogger, sie bleibt ruhig und möchte ihren Spaziergang genießen. Gegenüber anderen Hunden ist sie an der Leine etwas aufmüpfig und pöbelt gerne mal. Man merkt, dass sie wenig Frustrationstoleranz und Impulskontrolle hat. Auf Korrekturen reagiert sie jedoch schon ganz gut, was bedeutet, dass sie in Zukunft konsequente und liebevolle Erziehung benötigt. Grundsätzlich ist Mara eine sehr coole Hündin und kommt mit Menschen gut klar, allerdings ist sie keine „typische Kuschelerin“ - sie genießt das ganze mal (vor allem von bekannten Personen), möchte aber auch ebenso, dass ihr Freiraum und ihre Grenzen akzeptiert werden. Da Mara noch nicht lange bei uns ist, lernen wir sie weiter kennen und aktualisieren ihre Beschreibung zeitnah.

About Mara

What life with Mara looks like

Mara is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Ransbach-Baumbach in Germany.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇩🇪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 Mara, answered.

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