How do I contact the shelter about Mirjam?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Animal Happyend handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Mirjam on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Mirjam if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Animal Happyend 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 Mirjam 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 Mirjam 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 Animal Happyend early rather than rehoming privately; they know Mirjam 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.

Mirjam

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy · 4 months

Mirjam, a lovely Hungarian mixed breed, was found roaming the streets of Pilis on August 28, 2026, in search of food. She was reported to the animal shelter by concerned citizens and fortunately arrived there unharmed. During the microchip check, no match was found, and she was not reported missing. It is assumed she was abandoned. Her quarantine period has ended, and Mirjam is waiting for loving people to share her life journey and rely on her for life. Mirjam has unfortunately experienced the darker side of life, but seems to have coped well. Initially, she is shy, but once she opens up, she is a playful, cheerful, and affectionate puppy. New situations can sometimes overwhelm her. She needs a lot of closeness and love and enjoys petting and attention. Although still green behind the ears, she needs to be taught everything a young dog needs to know for a happy family life with patience and love. She has the best prerequisites to become a great companion who will stand by her humans through thick and thin. However, her new owners should be aware of the responsibility and work involved in bringing a puppy into the family. Mirjam gets along well with her peers and loves to play and romp with them, but not too wildly. We are looking for loving and enthusiastic dog lovers to welcome her into their families forever. She should be allowed to arrive in peace and without expectations. In due course, she needs appropriate activity, wants to be challenged and promoted age-appropriately, and go on discovery trips with her humans. In addition, many cuddle hours, sufficient rest phases, a lot of play and fun, dog school, great walks, and Mirjam can leave the past behind and start a happy future. Who shows Mirjam the bright side of life? She is still too young for neutering, which must be done by the new owners when she is old enough. The estimated final size is 45-55cm and weight 16-24kg. On September 11, 2026, Mirjam is 35cm and 6.8kg. Mirjam can travel from around late October/early November 2026 if she has found a home or foster home.

Ursprungsland: Ungarn Die allerliebste Mirjam irrte am 28.8.2026 herrenlos und auf der Suche nach etwas fressbarem in Pilis umher und wurde von aufmerksamen Menschen dem Menhely gemeldet. Zum Glück konnte sie unverletzt gesichert und ins Tierheim gefahren werden. Bei der Chipkontrolle wurde man nicht fündig und es hat sie niemand als vermisst gemeldet. Muss man nicht verstehen, aber wir gehen davon aus, dass sie ausgesetzt wurde. Ihre Quarantänezeit ist vorbei und Mirjam wartet auf liebe Menschen, welche mit ihr ihren weiteren Lebensweg gehen und auf welche sie sich ein Leben lang verlassen kann. Mirjam hat leider schon die Schattenseiten des Lebens kennenlernen müssen, doch sie scheint das alles ganz gut verkraftet zu haben. Anfangs ist sie etwas schüchtern, aber wenn sie sich öffnet, ist sie ein lustiges, verspieltes, aufgestelltes und fröhliches Hundekind. Neue Situationen können sie auch mal beeindrucken. Sie braucht viel Nähe und Liebe und freut sich über Streicheleinheiten und Aufmerksamkeit. Noch ganz grün hinter den Ohren, muss ihr alles liebevoll und geduldig beigebracht werden, was so ein junger Vierbeiner für sein weiteres Leben als geliebter Familienhund wissen muss. Sie bringt beste Voraussetzungen mit, eine tolle Begleiterin zu werden, welche mit ihren Menschen durch dick und dünn gehen wird. Ihre neuen Besitzer sollten sich aber der Verantwortung und Arbeit bewusst sein, was es heisst, einen Welpen/Junghund in die Familie zu holen. Mit ihren Artgenossen versteht sich Mirjam prima und liebt es, mit ihnen zu spielen und zu toben, aber nicht zu wild. Für unsere bezaubernde Mirjam suchen wir liebe und begeisterte Hundefreude, welche sie für immer in ihren Familien willkommen heissen. Sie sollte in Ruhe und ohne Erwartungen an sie zu stellen, erst mal ankommen dürfen. Dann zu gegebener Zeit braucht sie artgerechte Beschäftigung, sie möchte altersgerecht gefordert und gefördert werden und mit ihren Menschen auf Entdeckungsreise gehen. Dazu viele Schmusestunden, genügend Ruhephasen, viel Spiel und Spass, Hundeschule, tolle Spaziergänge und Mirjam kann die Vergangenheit für immer hinter sich lassen und in eine glückliche Zukunft starten. Wer zeigt Mirjam die Sonnenseiten des Lebens? Aktuell ist sie noch zu jung für eine Kastration, die muss von den neuen Besitzern nachgeholt werden, wenn sie alt genug ist. Endgrösse von 45-55cm und Endgewicht von 16-24kg sind nur geschätzt. Am 11.9.2026 ist Mirjam 35cm und 6,8kg Mirjam kann ab ca. Ende Oktober/Anfang November 2026 reisen, wenn sie ein Zuhause oder eine Pflegestelle gefunden hat.

About Mirjam

What life with Mirjam looks like

Mirjam is a puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Animal Happyend in Animal Happyend.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇨🇭Adopting from Switzerland

Swiss shelters require a home visit (Platzkontrolle) and proof of suitable accommodation. Cantons each have their own additional dog-keeping requirements (e.g. SKN training in some areas). Animals leave sterilized and chipped.
