Currently in foster care in 26629 Großefehn. Mila has been eagerly waiting for her happy ending for several years already. Unfortunately, she’s always overlooked so far—perhaps because she doesn’t exactly greet strangers with joy; instead, she first eyes them suspiciously and even barks at them. But whoever wins her heart will get to see the sweet, cuddly, and spirited treasure she truly is inside. Mila is a little stubborn through and through. She loves to argue when she doesn’t want something. Then it’s all about not giving in and standing your ground. Because eventually, Mila does give in—and grumbling, she’ll do exactly what you ask of her. Somehow, that makes her all the more special and often brings a smile to your face. Walking on a leash is no problem at all for Mila. She’s superbly leash-trained, walks right by your side, stays calm during encounters with other dogs, and responds very well to recall. Although she’s alert outdoors, indoors she’s calm and unobtrusive and can also handle being left alone just fine. She loves nothing more than being with her people and adores snuggling endlessly. As you may have noticed in the photos, Mila’s head is slightly tilted. This is due to a neurological head tilt, but we’ve managed to get it under control quite well with exercises. It’s not completely gone, but it doesn’t hinder her from living an active life in any way. • Gender: Female • Does she like children? Yes, as long as they know how to interact with dogs • Gets along with cats? No • Gets along with other dogs? Yes, depending on compatibility • Location: 26629 Großefehn We’re looking for experienced dog owners for Mila who can give her plenty of time to build trust, take her stubborn nature with humor, and guide her lovingly yet consistently. Could you be just the person Mila needs for her happy ending? 📞 WhatsApp: Mila is waiting for a home where she can learn, play, and cuddle—maybe with you? .avia-image-container.av-ms5vh6g0-e3cbadae5693ec5b99c34c42dc4402c1 img.avia_image{ .avia-image-container.av-ms5vh6g0-e3cbadae5693ec5b99c34c42dc4402c1 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{

Auf Pflegestelle in 26629 Großefehn. Mila wartet schon sehnsüchtig mehrere Jahre auf ihr Happy End. Bisher wird sie leider immer übersehen, vielleicht weil sie Fremde nicht gerade freudestrahlend begrüßt, sondern diese erstmal misstrauisch beäugt und verbellt werden. Doch wer ihr Herz gewinnt bekommt den sympathischen, verschmusten und temperamentvollen Schatz zu sehen, der sie im inneren ist. Mila ist ein kleiner Sturkopf durch und durch. Sie diskutiert sehr gerne, wenn sie etwas nicht will. Dann heißt es nicht nachgeben und sich durchsetzen. Denn dann gibt Mila schließlich nach und führt meckernd das aus, was man von ihr möchte. Irgendwie macht sie das auch so besonders und zaubert einem dadurch oftmals ein Schmunzeln ins Gesicht. An der Leine laufen ist für Mila gar kein Problem. Sie ist super leinenführig, läuft so gar bei Fuß, verhält sich ruhig bei Hundebegegnungen und ist ziemlich gut abrufbar. Draußen ist sie zwar wachsam, aber drinnen ist sie dafür ruhig und unauffällig und kann auch prima allein bleiben. Am liebsten ist sie bei ihren Menschen und kuschelt für ihr Leben gerne. Wie du in den Bildern vllt. schon entdeckt hast ist Milas Kopf etwas schief. Das liegt an einer neurologischen Kopfschiefstellung, doch die haben wir mit Übungen sehr gut in den Griff bekommen. Ganz ist es nicht weg, aber es hindert sie auch in keiner Weise an einem aktiven Leben. • Geschlecht: Weiblich • Mag Kinder: Ja, wenn diese mit Hunden umgehen können • Verträglich mit Katzen: Nein • Verträglich mit anderen Hunden: Ja, kommt auf die Sympathie an • Aufenthaltsort: 26629 Großefehn Für Mila suchen wir Hundeerfahrene Menschen, die ihr viel Zeit geben, um Vertrauen zu fassen, ihren Sturkopf mit Humor nehmen und sie liebevoll konsequent führen können. Bist du vielleicht genau dieser Mensch für Milas Happy End? 📞 WhatsApp: Mila wartet auf ein Zuhause, in dem sie lernen, spielen und kuscheln darf – vielleicht bei dir? .avia-image-container.av-ms5vh6g0-e3cbadae5693ec5b99c34c42dc4402c1 img.avia_image{ .avia-image-container.av-ms5vh6g0-e3cbadae5693ec5b99c34c42dc4402c1 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{

About Mila

What life with Mila looks like

Mila is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Free Dogs - Vergessene Tiere in Not e.V. in Großefehn.

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 Mila, answered.

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