MIRTA

Mixed Breed · Female

MIRTA, born on 27.04.2022, shoulder height approx. 65 cm, weight approx. 22 kg, neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, dewormed, further details (MMK) to follow. MIRTA is a Galgo who was recently surrendered to the shelter by her previous owner. Due to the experiences she has had so far, she approaches new situations and people cautiously and with reserve. With patience and loving attention, however, she is gaining more and more trust and is slowly beginning to enjoy attention and petting. Behind her shy manner is a very gentle, loving and sensitive female dog. In everyday shelter life, MIRTA is pleasant and uncomplicated: she gets along excellently with the other dogs at the shelter, and during the occasional short, low-stimulus walks she walks quite calmly on the leash. For MIRTA, we wish for a calm and understanding home where she is given the time to settle in at her own pace. An already present, confident dog in the family or in the foster home would help her greatly to find her bearings and to reduce her insecurities step by step.

MIRTA MIRTA, geboren am 27. 04. 2022, SH ca. 65 cm, Gewicht etwa 22 kg, kastriert, geimpft, gechipt, entwurmt, weitere Daten (MMK) folgen. MIRTA ist eine Galga, die vor Kurzem von ihrem bisherigen Besitzer an das Tierheim übergeben wurde. Durch die Erfahrungen, die sie bisher machen musste, begegnet sie neuen Situationen und Menschen noch vorsichtig und zurückhaltend. Mit Geduld und liebevoller Zuwendung fasst sie jedoch immer mehr Vertrauen und beginnt langsam, Aufmerksamkeit und Streicheleinheiten zu genießen. Hinter ihrer schüchternen Art steckt eine sehr sanfte, liebe und sensible Hündin. Im Tierheimalltag zeigt sich MIRTA angenehm und unkompliziert: Sie versteht sich im Tierheim hervorragend mit den anderen Hunden und bei den hin und wieder stattfindenden, kurzen und reizarmen Gassirunden läuft sie recht ruhig an der Leine. Für MIRTA wünschen wir uns ein ruhiges und verständnisvolles Zuhause, in dem man ihr die Zeit gibt, in ihrem eigenen Tempo anzukommen. Ein bereits vorhandener, souveräner Hund in der Familie oder auf der Pflegestelle würde ihr dabei sehr helfen, sich zu orientieren und ihre Unsicherheiten Schritt für Schritt abzubauen.

About MIRTA

What life with MIRTA looks like

MIRTA is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein Galgo-Friends e.V. in Germany.

An 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 MIRTA, answered.

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