How do I contact the shelter about Masha &#8211?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Schkortitz handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Masha &#8211 on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Masha &#8211 if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Schkortitz 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 Masha &#8211 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 Masha &#8211 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 Schkortitz early rather than rehoming privately; they know Masha &#8211 and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.

Masha &#8211

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 4 years

I am female, microchipped, vaccinated, and born around 2006. I am approximately 35 cm tall. I have been searching for a new home since June 2022. My caretakers say about me: Omitier Masha came to us from Tierfreunde to make room for emergency cases. The age is just an estimate; she seems younger to us. But one doesn’t ask ladies their age, does one? Masha is heartwarming in her gentleness and affection towards everyone. She prefers a laid-back daily routine with small walks and lots of cuddles. She is occasionally a bit head-shy when someone approaches from above… but if you pay attention to this, she is very cuddly. She is compatible with dogs and would love to move with her Opifreund Nico… cats and other animals are no problem either. Her blood values are without findings, her teeth are brushed, and soon she must still master an operation. We assume that she will continue to be happy with her Opifreund after the operation, just as she has been with her current family. Since we don’t want to waste time, we are already looking for a loving place for her golden years and hope… Who would like to give our gentle Omitier a beautiful golden age full of love?

Ich bin weiblich, gechipt, geimpft und circa 2006 geboren. Ich bin circa 35 cm gross. Ich suche seit Juni 2022 ein neues Zuhause. Das sagen meine Betreuer über mich: Omitier Masha haben wir von Tierfreunden übernommen, um Platz für Notfelle zu schaffen.Die Altersangabe ist ein reiner Schätzwert, uns erscheint sie jünger. Aber Damen fragt man ja eh nicht nach dem Alter. Masha ist herzerwärmend sanft und liebevoll mit Jedermann. Sie bevorzugt einen gemütlichen Tagesablauf mit kleinen Gassirunden und vielen Kuscheleinheiten. Sie ist ab und an etwas kopfscheu wenn die Hand von oben kommt…beachtet man dies bei Annähherung ist sie sehr kuschelbedürftig. Sie ist verträglich mit Hunden und würde am allerliebsten mit ihrem Opifreund Nico umziehen…auch Katzen und andere Tiere sind kein Problem. Ihre Blutwerte sind ohne Befund, die Zähne geputzt und in Kürze muss sie noch eine Operation meistern. Wir gehen davon aus das sie sich danach auch weiterhin mit einem kleinen Ichfreumichsogalopp über ihre Menschen freuen wird wie bisher. Da wir keine Zeit verschwenden möchten schauen wir jetzt schon nach einem liebevollen Platz für ihren Lebensabend um und hoffen …. Wer möchte unserem sanften Omitier einen schönen Lebensabend voller Liebe schenken ?

About Masha &#8211

What life with Masha &#8211 looks like

Masha &#8211 is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Schkortitz in Grimma.

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.
