Melly (mit Video)

Mixed Breed · Female

Melly is a delicate female dog weighing 14.5 kg. She is very lively, enjoys playing and cuddling, but does not approach strangers. You first need to overcome her initial shyness and reserve. In the dog group, she generally submits—except when it comes to food; then she knows no friends and fiercely guards her food bowl. She was often neglected in her previous life. Melly was born in 2017. If you have any questions, please call us: / 41890. Please arrange your visit by phone at our Waldtierheim; we are open every Saturday and Sunday from 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. (directions), with last admission at 3:00 p.m.

Melly ist eine zarte Hündin mit einem Gewicht von 14,5 kg. Sie zeigt sich sehr lebendig, spielt und schmust gern. Auf Fremde geht sie nicht zu. Man muss erst ihre anfängliche Scheu und Zurückhaltung überwinden. In der Hundegruppe ordnet sie sich im allgemeinen unter - nur wenn es um's Futter geht, kennt sie keine Freunde und verteidigt ihren Fressnapf. Sie ist in ihrem früheren Leben oft zu kurz gekommen. Melly wurde 2017 geboren. Wenn Sie Fragen haben, rufen Sie uns an: / 41890Bitte vereinbaren Sie telefonisch einen Besuchstermin bei uns im Waldtierheim, wir haben jeden Samstag und Sonntag jeweils von 11.00 bis 16.00 Uhr geöffnet (Anfahrt), letzter Einlass ist um 15.00 Uhr.

About Melly (mit Video)

What life with Melly (mit Video) looks like

Melly (mit Video) is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Waldtierheim (Tierheim Verlorenwasser) in Germany.

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. 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 Melly (mit Video), answered.

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