Melina

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Senior · 12 years

Nordmazedonien Melina wurde auf dem Schulhof eines Dorfes ausgesetzt. Dort gab es bereits Katzen und einen anderen Hund. Der Schulhof war sehr klein, und die Eltern der Kinder waren über die vielen Tiere nicht erfreut. Ich wurde also gefragt, ob ich sie mitnehmen kann, und das habe ich getan Melina ist sehr intelligent, verspielt, lustig und lernt schnell. Sie ist eine wunderhübsche Hündin, die allerdings viel Fellpflege benötigt, was zur Zeit leider völlig flach fällt, da im Shelter einfach die Zeit fehlt. Wir suchen jetzt Menschen, die Melina gerecht werden können, die ihre Intelligenz fördern, die viel mit ihr unternehmen und sich viel im Freien aufhalten. Kinder in der Familie sollten schon 12 Jahre alt sein. Wer sich jetzt ernsthaft für Melina interessiert, melde sich gern bei mir in Form einer Selbstauskunft und dann schauen wir mal, obs passt.... Schutzgebühr inkl. Transportkosten: 640€

About Melina

What life with Melina looks like

Melina is a medium-sized senior mixed breed dog waiting at Hundeliebe Grenzenlos e.V. in Germany.

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 Melina, answered.

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