Mischling Lou &#8211

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

I am male, microchipped, and born around 2019. I am approximately 60 cm tall. I have been in search of a sponsor since November 2021. My caretakers say about me: Lou is a foster dog from a neighboring shelter. Originally, he came from abroad. The actual foster shelter found it challenging to manage the husbandry of the anxious dog. Lou is not yet adoptable; his handling is difficult. He lives with us alongside a male dog who has a similar past. Lou still has a long way to go. He enjoys his playtime with his canine buddy. He is also watchful, though not a barker. He finds people interesting but needs to maintain a certain distance. Occasionally, he does approach and sniff a person to see if they might be nice. If he feels threatened, he will run away. He calms down quickly in familiar surroundings. However, since he likes food, we still have room for improvement in building trust. We cannot yet say when he will start his first leash walks, and we would be very happy if Lou could receive your support for his stay with us. This includes accommodation, food, and upcoming vet visits. Who would like to financially support Lou's stay with us and take on a sponsorship for our Snow Leopard?

Ich bin männlich , gechipt und circa 2019 geboren. Ich bin circa 60 cm gross. Ich bin seit November 2021 auf der Suche nach Paten. Das sagen meine Betreuer über mich: Lou ist ein Übernahmehund eines Nachbarvereins.Ursprünglich stammt er aus dem Ausland. Der eigentliche Übernahmeverein sah sich mit der Haltung dem Angsthund überfordert. Lou ist noch nicht vermittelbar, sein Handling gestaltet sich schwierig. Er lebt bei uns mit einem Rüden zusammen der eine ähnliche Vergangenheit hat. Lou hat noch einen weiten Weg vor sich.Er genießt seine Auslaufzeiten mit dem Hundekumpel.Dann ist er auch wachsam, allerdings kein Kläffer. Menschen findet er interessant benötigt jedoch noch genügend Abstand. Ab und an traut er sich schon ran und schnuppert schon mal am Menschen, ob der nicht doch toll sein könnte. Fühlt sie sich bedrängt, ergreift er die Flucht. Er beruhigt sich in gewohntem Umfeld jedoch schnell wieder. Da er jedoch auf Futterstücke steht, sehen wir noch Luft nach oben, benötigen jedoch noch einiges an Zeit für den Vertrauensaufbau. Wann er die ersten Gehversuche an der Leine machen wird können wir noch nicht sagen und würden uns freuen, wenn Lou Eure Unterstützung bekommt. Für Unterbringung, Futter und auch kommende Tierarztbesuche. Wer möchte Lous Aufenthalt bei uns finanziell unterstützen und eine Patenschaft für unseren Schneelöwen übernehmen?

About Mischling Lou &#8211

What life with Mischling Lou &#8211 looks like

Mischling Lou &#8211 is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Schkortitz in Grimma.

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. 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 Mischling Lou &#8211, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Mischling Lou &#8211?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Schkortitz handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Mischling Lou &#8211 on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Mischling Lou &#8211 if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Schkortitz 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 Mischling Lou &#8211 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 Mischling Lou &#8211 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 Tierheim Schkortitz early rather than rehoming privately; they know Mischling Lou &#8211 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.
