Maya

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Puppy · 4 months

Maya, a loving and playful dog, was discovered with her six newborn puppies on a field in Portugal by walkers. The puppies were just a few days old and needed their mother's care. Fortunately, the finders did not turn away and asked our partner animal shelter Adoromimos for help. Maya and her puppies were brought to safety. In the shelter, the small family had a protected place where Maya could raise her puppies in peace. Some time has passed and five of her children have found their families. Only Maya and her daughter Daisy are still waiting. So far, there has not been even serious interest in the two - and these two cheerful dog girls have so much to offer. Maya is an open, outgoing and people-oriented dog who goes through life with curiosity. She is playful and active, wants to experience something and enjoys the people around her. She has so much joy in life and a desire to learn about the world. Although Maya has already experienced a lot, she is still young and her real life is yet to begin. Walks through woods and meadows, joint excursions, perhaps a visit to a dog school, exuberant playing and then lying content in her own basket - all these normal things of a beloved family dog are still waiting to be discovered by her.

Manchmal beginnt eine Geschichte mit einem großen Glück im Unglück. Maya wurde gemeinsam mit ihren sechs Welpen von Spaziergängern auf einem Feld in Portugal entdeckt. Ihre Kleinen waren zu diesem Zeitpunkt gerade einmal wenige Tage alt und auf den Schutz und die Fürsorge ihrer Mama angewiesen. Zum Glück schauten die Finder nicht weg und baten unser Partnertierheim Adoromimos um Hilfe. So konnten Maya und ihre sechs Hundekinder in Sicherheit gebracht werden. Im Tierheim hatte die kleine Familie einen geschützten Ort, an dem Maya ihre Welpen in Ruhe großziehen konnte. Inzwischen ist einige Zeit vergangen und fünf ihrer Kinder haben ihre Familien gefunden. Nur Maya und ihre Tochter Daisy warten noch immer. Bisher gab es für die beiden nicht einmal ernsthaftes Interesse – und dabei haben diese zwei fröhlichen Hundemädchen so viel zu bieten. Maya ist eine offene, aufgeschlossene und menschenbezogene Hündin, die neugierig durchs Leben geht. Sie ist verspielt und aktiv, möchte etwas erleben und freut sich über die Menschen um sie herum. In ihr steckt so viel Lebensfreude und Lust darauf, die Welt kennenzulernen. Denn auch wenn Maya bereits einiges erlebt hat, ist sie noch jung und ihr eigentliches Leben soll doch jetzt erst richtig beginnen. Spaziergänge durch Wald und Wiesen, gemeinsame Ausflüge, vielleicht der Besuch einer Hundeschule, ausgelassenes Spielen und danach zufrieden im eigenen Körbchen liegen – all diese ganz normalen Dinge eines geliebten Familienhundes warten noch darauf, von ihr entdeckt zu werden.

About Maya

What life with Maya looks like

Maya is a medium-sized puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein Europa in München.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇩🇪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 Maya, answered.

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