Marie Curie

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 3 years

Marie Curie - gentle, strong and ready for a new chapter Breed: Mixed Gender: Female Born: 01/2023 Size / Weight: 55 cm / 30 kg Neutered: yes Vaccinated: yes Microchip: yes Compatible with: Male and female dogs Incompatible with: unknown Sponsorship possible: yes Description Marie was found on December 30, 2025, just a few hundred meters from one of our shelters - together with her eight newborn puppies. Luckily, they were discovered quickly and could be immediately brought to safety, warmth, and a place where they could just arrive. There, Marie finally had time to recover and take care of her babies. And she did. With calmness, patience, and a loving nature, she raised her eight little protégés: Rachel Carson, Aristotle, Galileo Galilei, Ada Lovelace, Charles Darwin, Isaac Newton, Lise Meitner & Rosalind Franklin. The little ones were allowed to spend their first months together with their mom - protected, cared for, and safe. This is a great gift for a start in life. Marie herself is a very pleasant, friendly dog. She is compatible with other dogs, likes to make contact with people, and shows a balanced, calm character. A dog that likes closeness without being pushy, and who just likes to be there. However, she does not yet know life in a house. All the things that are self-evident for many dogs.

Marie Curie – sanft, stark und bereit für ein neues Kapitel → Rasse: Mischling → Geschlecht: weiblich→ Geboren: 01/2023 → Grösse / Gewicht: 55 cm / 30 kg→ Kastriert: ja→ Geimpft: ja→ Kennzeichnung: Chip→ Verträglich mit: Rüden und Hündinnen→ Unverträglich mit: k.A.→ Patenschaften möglich: ja Beschreibung Marie wurde am 30. Dezember 2025 nur wenige hundert Meter von einer unserer Pensionen entfernt gefunden – zusammen mit ihren acht neugeborenen Welpen. Zum Glück wurden sie schnell entdeckt und konnten sofort in Sicherheit gebracht werden, ins Warme, in Ruhe, an einen Ort, an dem sie einfach nur ankommen durften. Dort hatte Marie endlich Zeit, sich zu erholen und sich ganz um ihre Babys zu kümmern. Und das hat sie getan. Mit Ruhe, Geduld und einem liebevollen Wesen hat sie ihre acht kleinen Schützlinge großgezogen: Rachel Carson, Aristoteles, Galileo Galilei, Ada Lovelace, Charles Darwin, Isaac Newton, Lise Meitner & Rosalind Franklin. Die Kleinen durften ihre ersten Monate gemeinsam mit ihrer Mama verbringen – behütet, versorgt und sicher. Für einen Start ins Leben ist das ein großes Geschenk. Marie selbst ist eine sehr angenehme, freundliche Hündin. Sie ist verträglich mit anderen Hunden, sucht gern den Kontakt zu Menschen und zeigt einen ausgeglichenen, ruhigen Charakter. Eine Hündin, die Nähe mag, ohne aufdringlich zu sein, und die einfach gern dabei ist. Was sie allerdings noch nicht kennt, ist das Leben in einem Haus. All die Dinge, die für viele Hunde selbstverständlich

About Marie Curie

What life with Marie Curie looks like

Marie Curie is a large young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein Franz von Assisi e.V. in Germany.

An young 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 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 Marie Curie, answered.

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