Mariajo

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 2 years

Mariajo, a Podenca mix female, is estimated to be around 4 years old. She was rescued from a killing station in Castile-La Mancha along with another Podenca mix in December last year. Unfortunately, due to the animals being picked up by the local police, nothing is known about her past. Mariajo will travel to a foster home in Saarland on 20.09.2024. She can be visited there from then on. The local animal welfare organization describes her as a friendly, very active and affectionate dog who is looking for a suitable home. Mariajo gets along well with other dogs. Upon arrival, she was extremely thin. She is full of energy and would love to be with people all the time. Would you like to offer Mariajo a home of her own? She could be chipped, vaccinated, dewormed, spayed, and have an MMK test.

About Mariajo

What life with Mariajo looks like

Mariajo is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Casa Animalis in Germany.

A young 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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Mariajo, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Mariajo?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Casa Animalis handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Mariajo on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Mariajo if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Casa Animalis 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Mariajo 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 Mariajo 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 Casa Animalis early rather than rehoming privately; they know Mariajo 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.
