adoption requirements adoption process Now request this animal! adoption requirements adoption process Now request this dog! Minna is a beautiful, sensitive young female dog who has long been eagerly waiting for her chance in the shelter in Baia Mare. Now, there have been cautious but very important advancements: Minna can now be touched and stroked. However, she remains a very shy female dog who needs time, calmness, and empathy. Her trust is not something that can be given easily—it must be earned carefully. We know nothing about Minna's past. What we do know is that she has not had good experiences. The loud, overcrowded shelter was a significant burden for her for a long time. Therefore, it is now more important than ever to find people for Minna who will meet her with patience, respect, and empathy and guide her step by step into a new life. Even though she can now be touched, it is possible that in a new home, she may initially take a step back and not allow touch at first. This should be accepted and respected. With a shoulder height of about 55 to 60 cm, Minna is a medium-sized female dog. She has short black fur with white patches on her paw tips, chest, and chin.

Minna ist eine wunderschöne, sensible Hündin von mittlerweile etwa 1,5 Jahren, die im Shelter von Baia Mare auf ihre Chance wartet. Lange Zeit war die Nähe zu Menschen für sie kaum vorstellbar. Inzwischen gibt es jedoch kleine, aber sehr bedeutende Fortschritte: Minna lässt Berührungen zu und kann mittlerweile sogar vorsichtig gestreichelt werden. Für eine so unsichere Hündin ist das ein großer Schritt und zeigt uns, dass in ihr durchaus die Bereitschaft steckt, Vertrauen aufzubauen. Dennoch ist Minna nach wie vor sehr schüchtern und braucht Zeit, Ruhe und viel Einfühlungsvermögen. Ihr Vertrauen bekommt man nicht innerhalb weniger Tage geschenkt. Es muss behutsam wachsen – ohne Druck und ohne Erwartungen, die sie noch nicht erfüllen kann. Über Minnas Vergangenheit wissen wir nichts. Wir können deshalb nicht sagen, warum sie Menschen gegenüber so vorsichtig geworden ist oder welche Erfahrungen sie bisher gemacht hat. Sicher ist lediglich, dass das laute und hektische Leben im Shelter für eine sensible Hündin wie sie keine guten Voraussetzungen bietet, um dauerhaft Sicherheit zu entwickeln. Mit einer Schulterhöhe von etwa 55 bis 60 cm gehört Minna zu den mittelgroßen bis größeren Hündinnen. Ihr kurzes schwarzes Fell wird durch kleine weiße Abzeichen an Brust, Kinn und Pfoten ergänzt. Besonders auffällig sind ihre warmen braunen Augen und ihr sanfter, vorsichtiger Blick. Ihre Rute ist verkürzt, weshalb eine

About Minna

What life with Minna looks like

Minna is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Ein Herz für Streuner e.V. in München.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 Minna, answered.

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