How do I contact the shelter about Mattie?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Ein Herz für Streuner e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Mattie on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Mattie if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Ein Herz für Streuner 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 Mattie 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 Mattie 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 Ein Herz für Streuner e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Mattie 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.

Mattie

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 3 years

adoption requirements adoption process Now request this animal! adoption requirements adoption process Mattie has found her home! Her story: The unique Mattie was discovered a few weeks ago on the roadside, together with her little daughter Carolin, by our fabulous shelter staff on site. What was done to the little family beforehand remains in the dark, but Mattis Rute is short, and at the beginning, she was very scared and shy. Now, in the safety of the shelter, the brave mouse is gradually building trust and opening up. We wish for Mattie's future to be bright and for her to finally find a loving human heart that will protect her and give her a dignified female dog life. The cute Mattie with her white-gray-brown fluff coat and sweet ears is a medium-sized furred-nose, about 40 cm in size and weighing around 14 kg, who can be happy in either rural or urban areas. Important are extended walks and empathetic lessons of the dog ABC, because we do not know whether and to what extent Mattie knows the basic commands. Also, a cozy dog bed and species-appropriate toys are something that Mattie has probably never experienced and will endlessly enjoy. Fellow animals and felt paws, she currently likes very much in the shelter. Still, the friendly Magic Paw is in medical treatment because Mattie was found with demodectic mange, a parasitic skin disease. Care and hygiene usually ensure that the symptoms fully subside. Due to her short tail, she unfortunately cannot enter Switzerland. Has our Mattie already snuggled into your heart? Her luggage is packed by the end of October. Then she will travel with her EU pet passport, microchipped, vaccinated, dewormed, treated for fleas, and spayed, and can only travel if the health check is positive. She would also be very happy with a foster home. We thank you, Nani! You gave Mattie a very nice name, thus giving her an identity and hope for love. Status: 19.09.

Vermittlungsvoraussetzungen Vermittlungsablauf Jetzt dieses Tier anfragen! Vermittlungsvoraussetzungen Vermittlungsablauf Mattie hat ihr Zuhause gefunden! Ihre Geschichte: Die einzigartige Mattie wurde vor einigen Woche gemeinsam mit ihrem kleinen Töchterchen Carolin am Straßenrand entdeckt und von unseren fabelhaften Tierschützern vor Ort gerettet. Was man der kleinen Familie zuvor alles angetan hat, bleibt im Dunkeln, doch Mattis Rute ist kurz, zu Beginn war sie sehr verängstigt und schüchtern. Nun, in der Sicherheit des Shelters, beginnt die tapfere Maus allmählich Vertrauen aufzubauen und sich zu öffnen. Wir wünschen uns, dass Matties Zukunft hell erstrahlt und sie endlich ein liebendes menschliches Herz findet, das sie beschützt und ihr ein würdevolles Hündinnen-Leben schenkt. Die niedliche Mattie mit ihrem weiß-grau-braunen Wuschelfell und den süßen Öhrchen ist mit einer Größe von ca. 40 cm und einem Gewicht von ca. 14 kg eine mittelgroße Fellnase, die im ländlichen oder städtischem Gebiet glücklich werden kann. Wichtig sind ausgedehnte Spaziergänge sowie empathische Lerneinheiten des Hunde-ABC, denn wir wissen nicht, ob und inwiefern Mattie die Grundkommandos kennt. Auch ein eigenes Kuschel-Körbchen und artgerechtes Spielzeug sind etwas, das Mattie bisher wohl nie kennenlernen durfte und unendlich genießen wird. Artgenossen und Samtpfoten mag sie aktuell im Shelter recht gerne. Noch ist die freundliche Zauberpfote in ärztlicher Behandlung, denn Mattie wurde mit einer Demokitose, das ist eine parasitäre Hauterkrankung, aufgegriffen. Pflege und Hygiene sorgen in der Regel dafür, dass die Symptome vollständig abklingen. Wegen ihrer kurzen Rute darf sie leider nicht in die Schweiz einreisen. Hat sich unsere Mattie schon in dein Herz gekuschelt? Ihr Koffer ist ab Ende Oktober gepackt. Dann reist sie mit ihrem EU-Heimtierausweis, ist gechippt, geimpft, entwurmt, entfloht sowie kastriert und kann nach positiver Vorkontrolle und gegen eine Schutzgebühr von 500 Euro zu dir tapsen. Auch über eine Pflegestelle würde sie sich sehr freuen. Wir sagen Danke, Nani! Du hast Mattie einen sehr schönen Namen, damit eine Identität und die Hoffnung auf Liebe geschenkt. Stand: 19.09.2025

About Mattie

What life with Mattie looks like

Mattie is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Ein Herz für Streuner e.V. in München.

An 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. Animals leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with a valid EU pet passport. Adoption fees usually fall between €250 and €450, covering veterinary preparation.
