MINNIE

Chihuahua · Female · Young · 2 years

MINNE ist gerade etwa 25 cm klein. Hundefänger brachten die zierliche Hündin in die Tötung - einen Ort, an dem sie nun zwischen all den anderen Hunden beinahe untergeht. Dabei ist MINNIE eine freundliche kleine Hündin und mit Artgenossen verträglich. ❤️ Wir möchten nicht zulassen, dass sie dort einfach übersehen und vergessen wird. Deshalb suchen wir dringend einen Rettungspaten und vor allem Menschen, die MINNIE ein liebevolles Für-immer-Zuhause schenken möchten. Für ihre Ausreise benötigt MINNIE eine Rettungspatenschaft in Höhe von € 250,00. Weitere Informationen dazu finden Sie am Ende des Textes oder auf der Homepage des Vereins: seelentiere. org/ihre-unterstuetzung/patenschaften/ MINNIE könnte bereits am 24. 10. 2026 ausreisen - vielleicht wartet am Ende dieser Reise nicht nur die Freiheit auf sie, sondern endlich ein eigenes Körbchen und Menschen, bei denen sie nie wieder verloren zwischen vielen anderen sein muss. MINNIE ist vielleicht nur 25 cm klein - aber ihr Wunsch nach einem sicheren Leben ist riesengroß. Wer mag ihr diesen Wunsch erfüllen? Ihr Vermittler Harald Merkel freut sich auf Ihre Anfrage unter 61 oder per Email an h. merkel. org Bewerben können Sie sich auch direkt über unsere Selbstauskunft, die Sie hier finden: www. seelentiere. org/vermittlung/selbstauskunft (Link kopieren und in neuem Fenster einfügen). MINNIE wird kastriert, vollständig geimpft, entwurmt und gechipt mit einem EU-Heimtierpass nach positiver Vorkontrolle gegen Schutzgebühr in Höhe von € 500,00 vermittelt. Ein 4DX-Snaptast auf Mittelmeerkrankheiten wird vor Ausreise durchgeführt. In Zwinger- oder Außenhaltung wird MINNIE natürlich nicht abgegeben. Rettungspatenschaft: Mit einer Rettungspatenschaft über € 250,00 werden alle Kosten zur Vorbereitung für die

About MINNIE

What life with MINNIE looks like

MINNIE is a small young adult chihuahua dog waiting at Seelentiere e.V. 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 MINNIE, answered.

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