Marta (w) (A)

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 4 years

Marta, around 4 years old, around 50 cm (as of 09/14), reserved and shy but friendly. (K) 04/11: Marta is a beautiful female dog. She is absolutely compatible and also curious. She only wants to be touched a little bit, but with a bit of understanding and time, she will become a great companion. Marta has grown older. After a bite attack, she could no longer return to her enclosure. But she has discovered her fondness for puppies and is now regularly a foster mother for the little ones.

Marta, ca. 4 Jahre, ca. 50 cm (Stand 09/14), zurückhaltend und scheu, aber freundlich . (K) 04/11: Marta ist eine wunderschöne Hündin. Sie ist absolut verträglich und auch neugierig. Nur so ganz anfassen lassen möchte sie sich noch nicht, aber mit ein bißchen Verständnis und Zeit wird sie eine tolle Begleiterin werden. Marta ist in die Jahre gekommen. Nach einer Beißattacke konnte sie nicht mehr in ihr Gehege zurück. Aber sie hat ihre Vorliebe für Welpen entdeckt und ist inzwischen immer wieder Ziehmutter für die Kleinen.

About Marta (w) (A)

What life with Marta (w) (A) looks like

Marta (w) (A) is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tiernothilfe Casa Katharina e.V. in Nürnberg.

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 Marta (w) (A), answered.

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