Mia

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Senior · 20 years

Mia would love to leave the huge animal shelter behind and finally escape the concrete floor and cage bars of her kennel for a cozy dog bed of her own; no longer be exposed to constant noise (barking of many dogs) but have a nice, dog-friendly home with her Forever People. She would enjoy dog company. Nothing is known about this pretty young female's past. So all we can do is consider the present and future. The present at the shelter is not a place Mia should stay long. Her future should be a life where she can play, run freely and sniff in the grass (in her own garden or park), learn more - for a happy life with her new people, making it as pleasant as possible for everyone. Yes, a life above all with loving people who approach her with patience, love, time and without pressure, to whom she can build real trust. Mia would surely give everything to become a wonderful companion. She is not yet familiar with walking on a leash. But who should practice with her? With the right motivation (treats (?), being able to be out in nature, ...), as an intelligent, curious little girl, Mia will learn it without any problems. Working together, playing and learning to become a real team will be a wonderful task. © 2006-2026 by Tierschutzverein Europa e.V. - All rights reserved

DE·Show original

Mia möchte so gerne das riesige Tierheim verlassen, um endlich keinen Betonboden und Gitterstäbe des Zwingers mehr ertragen zu müssen, sondern ein eigenes kuscheliges Hundebett zu haben; keinem ständigen Lärm (Bellen der vielen Hunde) mehr ausgesetzt sein, sondern ein schönes, hundefreundliches Zuhause bei ihren Für-Immer-Menschen haben. Hundegesellschaft würde sie genießen. Über die Vergangenheit dieser hübschen, jungen Hündin ist nichts bekannt. Also bleibt uns nur die Gegenwart und die Zukunft zu betrachten. Die Gegenwart im Tierheim ist kein Ort, in dem Mia lange bleiben sollte. Die Zukunft sollte für sie ein Leben sein, in dem sie spielen darf, frei laufen und im Gras schnüffeln kann (in einem eigenen Garten oder im Park), in dem sie noch viel lernen darf – für ein zufriedenes Leben mit ihren neuen Menschen, damit es für alle so angenehm wie möglich ist. Ja, ein Leben vor allem mit liebevollen Menschen, die ihr mit Geduld, Liebe, Zeit und ohne Druck begegnen, zu denen sie echtes Vertrauen aufbauen kann. Mia würde dafür sicherlich alles geben, um eine wunderbare Begleiterin zu werden. An der Leine zu laufen, kennt sie noch nicht. Aber wer sollte auch mit ihr üben? Mit der entsprechenden Motivation (Leckerlies (?), in der Natur unterwegs sein dürfen, …) wird es Mia als intelligentes, neugieriges Hundemädchen problemlos lernen. Gemeinsam „arbeiten“, spielen und lernen, um ein echtes Team zu werden, wird eine wunderbare Aufgabe sein. © 2006-2026 by Tierschutzverein Europa e.V. - All rights reserved

About Mia

What life with Mia looks like

Mia is a medium-sized senior mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein Europa in München.

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 Mia, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Mia?
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 Mia on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Mia 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 Mia 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 Mia 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 Mia 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.
