How do I contact the shelter about Merry?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Nordic Strays e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Merry on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Merry if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Nordic Strays 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 Merry 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 Merry 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 Nordic Strays e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Merry 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.

Load More .fusion-body .fusion-builder-column-395 > .fusion-body .fusion-flex-container Hello, I'm Merry! ❤🐾 If you're looking for a best friend for life - here I am! I'm a real cuddle mouse and love humans more than anything. Cuddling is my number one hobby, and when my person is around, I'm the first to run over - even before my dog friends! Speaking of friends: I'm friendly with everyone and would like to be best friends with every dog. Whether big, small, dominant or shy - I get along well with all (even if the little ones steal my toys! 😁). Sometimes I make myself very small or let the other dog go first. City or country, I'm ready for anything! I was once a city stray, but now I've become housebroken quickly in the shelter. My past? I've left it behind - I trust people again and look forward to my own forever home. I've already taken some walks on a leash, but I still need to practice a bit. But since I love your attention so much, I will definitely learn quickly! Do you love cuddles as much as I do? Then contact me - I'm waiting for you! ❤ ****************************************************************** Hello fur friends! Today there's a new update about Zelda and Merry - the two girls from the shelter. The two sweet ones were warmly welcomed by Svjetlana and her dog gang and are really blooming. According to Svjetlana's assessment, the mice still need their time before they can pack their bags. They should first calm down and recover from the trauma they experienced. Merry is still very restless and is losing hair due to the stress that has affected her so much. She will be examined by a vet soon. Both of them still have terrible fears of harnesses and leashes, which we can't blame them for, as they were caught aggressively and kept confined with other dogs while waiting for their fate. Svjetlana is patiently, step by step, and positively teaching them that harnesses, collars, etc., can be nice things. Because of this experience, we want the two girls to have the time they need. We wish the two the best and hope that through Svjetlana's and your help, they will soon be able to lead a happy, worry-free life. .fusion-body .fusion-button Interested in adoption?

Load More .fusion-body .fusion-builder-column-359 > .fusion-body .fusion-flex-container Hallo, ich bin Merry! ❤🐾 Falls du auf der Suche nach einer besten Freundin fürs Leben bist – hier bin ich! Ich bin eine echte Kuschelmaus und liebe Menschen über alles. Kuscheln ist mein Hobby Nr. 1, und wenn meine Bezugsperson da ist, bin ich die Erste, die angerannt kommt – noch vor meinen Hundekumpels! Apropos Kumpels: Ich bin mit allen freundlich und möchte am liebsten mit jedem Hund Best Friend sein. Egal, ob groß, klein, dominant oder schüchtern – ich komme mit allen gut zurecht (sogar wenn mir die Minis mein Spielzeug klauen! 😁). Manchmal mache ich mich ganz klein oder lasse den anderen den Vortritt. Ob Stadt oder Land, ich bin für alles bereit! Früher war ich ein Stadt-Streuner, aber jetzt bin ich ganz schnell stubenrein geworden im Tierheim. Meine Vergangenheit? Die habe ich hinter mir gelassen – ich vertraue den Menschen wieder und freue mich auf mein eigenes Für-Immer-Zuhause. Erste Spaziergänge an der Leine habe ich schon gemacht, aber da muss ich noch ein bisschen üben. Da ich aber deine Aufmerksamkeit sehr lieben werde, lerne ich sicher super schnell! Magst du Kuscheleinheiten genauso sehr wie ich? Dann melde dich – ich warte auf dich! ❤ ****************************************************************** Hallo ihr Fellfreunde! Heute gibt es ein neues Update über Zelda und Merry – die zwei Mädels aus der Deponie. Die zwei süßen wurde herzlichst von Svjetlana und ihrer Hundebande aufgenommen und die zwei blühen richtig auf. Nach Einschätzung von Svjetlana brauchen die Mäuse noch ihre Zeit bevor sie die Koffer packen können. Sie sollen erst richtig zu Ruhe kommen und sich von dem Trauma erholen, bei dem was sie erlebt haben. Merry ist noch sehr unruhig und verliert Haare durch den Stress der sie soooo heftig mitgenommen. Sie wird demnächst Tierärztlich untersucht. Vor Geschirr und Leine haben beide (noch) furchtbare Angst, was wir ihnen nicht verübeln können, da sie eben aggressiv eingefangen worden waren und eingepfercht mit anderen Hunden auf ihren Tot warteten. Svjetlana bringt ihnen geduldig, kleinschrittig und positiv bei, dass Geschirr, Halsband und Co. etwas nettes sein können. Aufgrund dieser Erfahrung wollen wir den zwei Mädels die Zeit geben die sie brauchen. Wir wünschen den beiden nur das beste und wünschen uns, dass sie durch Svjetlanas und eurer Hilfe schon bald ein glückliches, sorgenfreies Leben führen dürfen. .fusion-body .fusion-button Interesse an einer Adoption?

About Merry

What life with Merry looks like

Merry is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Nordic Strays e.V. 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.
