Maxi

Mixed Breed · Female

Maxi (ca. 8 Jahre, kastriert) ist ein Zwergspitz, wie er im Buche steht: menschenbezogen, verschmust und mit einem ganz eigenen Kopf. Er liebt es, mit seinen Menschen zu kuscheln und die gemeinsame Zeit zu genießen. Auch ausgedehnte Spaziergänge findet er richtig toll und ist gerne unterwegs. Allerdings bringt Maxi nicht nur seine liebenswerten Seiten, sondern auch ein paar Ecken und Kanten mit. In seinem bisherigen Leben hat er vermutlich nicht allzu viel konsequente Erziehung kennenlernen dürfen. Dabei ist er ein schlaues Kerlchen, das schnell versteht, was erlaubt ist und wo seine Grenzen liegen, wenn man ihm diese liebevoll, klar und konsequent aufzeigt. Mit Artgenossen ist Maxi nicht besonders verträglich. Ob er sich mit einer Hündin verstehen könnte, müsste man individuell ausprobieren. Katzen kennt er wohl. Was Maxi in seinem neuen Zuhause braucht: * Menschen mit Geduld, Verständnis und Freude daran, mit ihm zu arbeiten. * Eine liebevolle, aber konsequente Erziehung. * Kinder sollten bereits im Schulalter sein. * Menschen, die sich der aufwendigen Fellpflege eines Zwergspitzes bewusst sind und diese regelmäßig sicherstellen können. * Verständnis dafür, dass Maxi noch nicht zuverlässig stubenrein ist. Mit Geduld, Routine und konsequentem Training lässt sich daran hoffentlich gut arbeiten. Maxi sucht Menschen, die ihn so nehmen, wie er ist, und bereit sind, gemeinsam mit ihm an seinen Baustellen zu arbeiten. Dafür bekommt man einen kleinen, anhänglichen Begleiter, der die Nähe seiner Menschen sehr genießt und gerne mit ihnen unterwegs ist.

About Maxi

What life with Maxi looks like

Maxi is an adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Landshut in Landshut.

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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

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. Tierheim Landshut 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 — Tierheim Landshut 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
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 Tierheim Landshut 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.
