About Mia

Mia has likely been passed around several times before finally ending up with us. This impressive dog generally loves people. However, she doesn't cope well with frustration and quickly becomes agitated, making her unresponsive. Other dogs are a major trigger for this. Even just seeing another dog sets her off. This behavior, combined with her breed, makes Mia a very poor fit for the shelter; she struggles to settle down. But Mia is eager to learn and has made great progress in recent weeks! Of course, she still needs a lot of training and practice to become a relaxed dog. We want to make it very clear: Mia has the potential to become a wonderful dog. She is eager to learn, loves people, and wants to do everything right. However, she also has the potential to become increasingly dangerous. Mia, or rather we, are urgently seeking responsible, experienced dog owners who feel confident in guiding her in the right direction. To make matters worse, she is classified as a Category 2 listed dog in Bavaria. This means she must pass a temperament test before she can be kept as a pet.

Original (de)

Mia wurde vermutlich schon mehrfach herumgereicht und landete schlussendlich bei uns. Die imposante Hündin mag Menschen grundsätzlich sehr gerne. Allerdings kann sie nicht gut mit Frust umgehen und schaukelt sich schnell in Gemütszustände, in denen sie nicht mehr gut ansprechbar ist. Ein großer Auslöser hierfür sind andere Hunde. Schon beim Sichtkontakt mit einem Artgenossen fährt sie schnell hoch. Durch dieses Verhalten gepaart mit ihrer Rassekombination ist Mia im Tierheim denkbar schlecht aufgehoben, sie findet schlecht zur Ruhe. Aber Mia möchte lernen und hat in den letzten Wochen schon tolle Fortschritte gemacht! Es bedarf aber trotzdem natürlich noch viel Training und Übung, um aus ihr einen entspannten Hund zu machen. Wir möchten hier ganz deutlich machen: Mia hat viel Potential, ein toller Hund zu werden. Sie ist gelehrig, liebt Menschen und möchte alles richtig machen. Genauso viel Potential hat sie aber, zunehmend gefährlicher zu werden. Mia bzw. wir suchen ganz dringend verantwortungsbewusste, hundeerfahrene Menschen, die sich zutrauen, sie in die richtigen Bahnen zu lenken. Erschwerend kommt hinzu, dass sie in Bayern ein Listenhund der Kategorie 2 ist. Das heißt, dass sie einen Wesenstest ablegen muss, damit sie gehalten werden darf.
