Martha

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 7 years

Update zu Martha: Martha befindet sich seit dem 20.06. in Deutschland auf einer Pflegestelle. Ein ausführliches Update zu ihr folgt!Martha (geb.12/2019), etwa 50–55 cm groß, ist eine ruhige, freundliche und anfangs zurückhaltende Hündin, die schon viel zu lange übersehen wurde. Sie stammt aus der großen Rettungsaktion aus dem Public Shelter Targu Jiu – vor genau drei Jahren. Dort war sie eine von vielen: schwarz, still, vorsichtig. Für manche „ängstlich“, für uns einfach eine Hündin, die nie die Chance bekommen hat, zu zeigen, wer sie wirklich ist.Doch dieses Bild stimmt längst nicht mehr.Seit ihrem Umzug nach Gradistea hat Martha bemerkenswerte Fortschritte gemacht. Sie lässt sich problemlos anfassen und streicheln, sucht vorsichtig Nähe und zeigt, wie sehr sie sich bemüht, Vertrauen zu fassen. Das Video beweist, wie weit sie schon gekommen ist. Martha hat gearbeitet, gehofft, durchgehalten.Jetzt steht sie an einem Punkt, an dem ihre Seele fast geheilt ist – es fehlt nur noch eines: ein liebevolles Zuhause oder eine einfühlsame Pflegestelle, die ihr zeigt, dass all ihre Mühe nicht umsonst war.Martha ist bereit für ihr eigenes Leben. Für Menschen, die ihr Zeit schenken, Ruhe, Verständnis und ein warmes Plätzchen im Herzen. Wer ihr diese Chance gibt, bekommt eine sanfte, dankbare Begleiterin, die endlich ankommen möchte.Martha wird nach positiver Vorkontrolle geimpft, gechippt und kastriert über den Tierschutzverein Vierbeiner in Not e. V. vermittelt.

About Martha

What life with Martha looks like

Martha is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Vierbeiner in Not e.V. in Germany.

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 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 Martha, answered.

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