Mina

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

Mina is one of those girl-dogs we just can't part with after taking her in for spaying from the streets. She's exactly the kind of dog who wins your heart from the very first moment. Gentle and modest, she doesn't ask for much but knows how to worm her way into people's hearts. She's friendly with other dogs, and playing with her new friends is one of her favorite activities. Currently, Mina lives in a foster home, where she's even made friends with the cats. At first, she wasn't quite sure what to make of them and would occasionally chase them out of curiosity. But now, there's harmony between them. Mina loves cuddles and being close to people. She wishes so much to be scratched, but waits patiently for her turn. Even if another dog is being stroked, she quietly joins in and hopes for a little attention. Although she can be a bit shy at first, she adapts quickly to new situations and finds her place. All she needs now is a loving family that will give her security, patience, and a few daily cuddles.

Mina ist eines dieser Hunde-Mädchen, von denen wir uns nicht mehr trennen konnten, nachdem wir sie zur Kastration von der Straße aufgenommen hatten. Sie ist genau die Art von Hund, die einem vom ersten Moment an direkt ins Herz geht. Sanft und bescheiden verlangt sie nicht viel, versteht es aber, sich in die Herzen der Menschen zu schleichen. Sie ist freundlich zu anderen Hunden, und das Spielen mit ihren neuen Freunden gehört zu ihren liebsten Beschäftigungen. Derzeit lebt Mina auf einer Pflegestelle, wo inzwischen auch die Katzen ihre Freunde geworden sind. Anfangs wusste sie nicht so recht, was sie von ihnen halten sollte und jagte sie gelegentlich aus Neugier. Mittlerweile herrscht jedoch Harmonie zwischen ihnen. Mina liebt Streicheleinheiten und die Nähe zu Menschen. Sie wünscht sich so sehr, gekrault zu werden, wartet aber geduldig auf ihren Einsatz. Selbst wenn gerade ein anderer Hund gestreichelt wird, kommt sie leise dazu und hofft auf ein wenig Aufmerksamkeit. Obwohl sie anfangs etwas schüchtern ist, passt sie sich schnell an neue Situationen an und findet ihren Platz. Alles, was ihr noch fehlt, ist eine liebevolle Familie, die ihr Sicherheit, Geduld und ein paar tägliche Streicheleinheiten schenkt.

About Mina

What life with Mina looks like

Mina is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Pfotenglück Bayern in Germany.

An young 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 Mina, answered.

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