Bordercoli-Mix, 3 1/2 Jahre alt, muss leider abgegeben werden, da er im Dezember 2025 vom Hund des Sohnes gebissen wurde. Seit dem hat Miro nur noch Angst und ist ständig gestresst. Es wird eine Familie oder Person gesucht, die Zeit hat und bereit ist mit ihm zu trainieren. Es sollten keine anderen Haustiere vorhanden sein. Miro ist ängstlich, aber mit allen anderen Hunden beim Gassigang verträglich. Freut sich auf jede Person und ist absolut lieb. Kann überall mitgenommen werden, sei es Hotel, Restaurant oder Büro. Miro ist kein Kläffer. Weitere Infos von Gerlinde Schulz unter oder

About Miro

What life with Miro looks like

Miro is a young adult border collie dog waiting at Die Tierinsel e.V. in Bornheim.

A 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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Miro, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Miro?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Die Tierinsel e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Miro on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Miro if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Die Tierinsel 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Miro 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 Miro 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 Die Tierinsel e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Miro 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.
