Maxi

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 9 years

Estimated born in 2017, Maxi is a female Jindo mix who has been at the shelter for a very long time. Maxi has even experienced two relocations of the shelter while the organization has grown. Although Maxi has grown up at the shelter, she is still innocent about the outside world and people. Maxi is afraid of everything new, including people and environments. However, she warms up enough to show a small smile during walks as long as she is with her familiar kennel buddies. Maxi has the potential to be a great companion for someone special, but she just needs someone to show her the way. Here's what one of the volunteers had to say about Maxi: "That's Maxi. Maxi is a very nervous dog. She pulls a lot on the leash and runs from left to right, so she definitely needs leash training. Maxi easily startles at loud noises like other dogs, cars, and passing people. Despite her fear of the environment, she enjoys sniffing and exploring. She doesn't mind being close to her kennel buddies and shows no aggression towards other dogs. She definitely needs a lot of love and affirmation from a family who can give her a lot of time." Maxi is looking for a forever home where she can learn the life lessons for happiness with love and patience. The Korean animal welfare workers prepare the dogs well for a home. They are house trained, social, and friendly. The dogs go to foster homes in Korea so they can feel safe and secure in a home quickly. If you are interested in Maxi, please download the corresponding self-disclosure and send it back to us completed. Thank you! Maxi is looking forward to your inquiry! ♥ More information: the dogs come with flight sponsors via Traces and the prescribed health documents to Germany. They are vaccinated, chipped, and dewormed. The animal welfare concerns and legal requirements are strictly adhered to. Important information: The exact date of birth will be communicated shortly before the flight, we only know the year of birth.

DE·Show original

Geschätzt im Jahr 2017 geboren, ist Maxi eine weibliche Jindo-Mischlingshündin, die bereits sehr lange im Tierheim ist. Maxi ist schon so lange im Tierheim, dass sie sogar zwei Umzüge des Tierheims miterlebt hat, während das Tierheim als Organisation gewachsen sind. Obwohl Maxi im Tierheim aufgewachsen ist, ist sie immer noch unschuldig gegenüber der Außenwelt und Menschen. Maxi hat Angst vor allem Neuen, einschließlich Menschen und Umgebungen. Sie taut jedoch soweit auf, dass sie während des spazieren gehen sogar ein kleines Lächeln zeigt, solange sie mit ihren vertrauten Zwingerkumpels zusammen ist. Maxi hat das Potenzial, eine großartige Begleiterin für jemanden Besonderen zu sein, aber sie braucht nur jemanden, der ihr den Weg zeigt.Hier ist, was einer der Freiwilligen über Maxi zu sagen hatte:„Das ist Maxi. Maxi ist ein sehr nervöser Hund. Sie zog viel an der Leine und lief von links nach rechts, also braucht sie definitiv Leinen-Training. Maxi erschrickt leicht bei lauten Geräuschen wie anderen Hunden, Autos und vorbeigehenden Menschen. Trotz ihrer Angst vor der Umgebung genießt sie es, herumzuschnüffeln und zu erkunden. Sie hat nichts dagegen, in der Nähe ihrer Zwingerkameraden zu sein und zeigt keine Aggression gegenüber anderen Hunden. Sie braucht definitiv viel Liebe und Bestätigung von einer Familie, die ihr viel Zeit schenken kann.“Maxi sucht eine einladende Familie für immer, die ihr liebevoll und geduldig die Lebenslektionen für Glück beibringen und ihr zeigen kann, dass die Welt sicher und voller Liebe ist. Die koreanischen Tierschützer bereiten die Hunde gut auf ein Zuhause vor. Sie sind stubenrein, sozial und freundlich. Die Hunde gehen in Korea teilweise auf Pflegestellen, damit sie sich schnell in einem Zuhause wohl und sicher fühlen. Wenn Sie sich für Maxi interessieren, laden Sie bitte die entsprechende Selbstauskunft herunter und senden Sie uns diese ausgefüllt zu. Vielen Dank! Maxi freut sich auf deine Anfrage! ♥ Weitere Informationen: die Hunde kommen mit Flugpaten via Traces und den vorgeschriebenen Gesundheitsdokumenten nach Deutschland. Sie sind geimpft, gechipt und entwurmt. Es werden die Belangen des Tierschutzes und die gesetzlichen Vorgaben strikt eingehalten. Wichtige Info: Das genaue Geburtsdatum bekommen wir erst kurz vor Flug mitgeteilt, wir wissen nur das Geburtsjahr.

About Maxi

What life with Maxi looks like

Maxi is a medium-sized senior mixed breed dog waiting at German Hands meet Korean Paws e.V. in Ebstorf.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇩🇪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 Maxi, answered.

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