MARA

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 4 years

Mara, a lovely and affectionate female dog, is looking for the right person. She needs exercise and mental stimulation. Her previous owners kept her locked in a crate or bathroom and rarely took her for walks. Mara deserves a better life and the chance to enjoy being a dog. Mara is a country girl and will not be placed in a big city, except for a green area on the outskirts.

DE·Show original

Tolle Hündin sucht nach dem richtigen Menschen. Mara ist eine sehr liebe und anhängliche Hündin, die Bewegung und Beschäftigung braucht. Ihre vorherigen Besitzer haben sie in eine Box oder ins Badezimmer gesperrt, spazieren geführt wurde sie kaum. Mara soll es jetzt endlich besser haben und ein schönes Hundeleben genießen dürfen. Mara ist ein Landei und wird nicht in die Großstadt vermittelt, ausgenommen Grünlage am Stadtrand.

About MARA

What life with MARA looks like

MARA is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Krems in Krems an der Donau.

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 Austria

Austrian shelters follow the federal Tierschutzgesetz framework: adopters sign a Schutzvertrag (protection contract) committing to the animal's welfare. Spay/neuter, microchip, and vaccinations are included; fees typically range €150–€350.

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 Krems 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 Krems 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 Krems 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.
