However, she shows no aggressive behavior. The foster home reports that she gets along well with children, as well as being compatible with dogs and cats. Additionally, she is house-trained, leading the foster home to assume that she has lived in a house and was likely abandoned. Background Mishka was found on the street by our veterinarian. She temporarily took in the shy female dog. It is believed that she was abandoned. Notes: The parentage is unknown, so no information can be given about the included breeds.

Allgemein Name: Mishka Geschlecht: Hündin Kastriert: Bei Ausreise kastriert Geboren ca. : 2024/2025 Größe ca. : klein (etwa 7kg) Aufenthaltsort: Pflegestelle in Rumänien seit April 2026 Paten: nein reserviert: nein Charakter Mishka zeigt sich auf ihrer Pflegestelle aktuell noch sehr zurückhaltend und schüchtern. Sie zeigt dabei jedoch keinerlei aggressives Verhalten. Die Pflegestelle meldet uns, dass sie mit Kindern zurecht kommt, sowie verträglich mit Hunden und Katzen ist. Außerdem ist sie stubenrein, weswegen ihre Pflegestelle davon ausgeht, dass sie ein Leben im Haus kennt und ausgesetzt wurde. Vergangenheit Mishka wurde von unserer Tierärztin auf der Straße gefunden. Sie hat die verschüchterte Hündin vorübergehend aufgenommen. Vermutlich wurde sie ausgesetzt. Hinweise Die Elterntiere sind nicht bekannt, sodass zu den enthaltenen Rassen keine Auskunft gegeben werden kann.

About Mishka

What life with Mishka looks like

Mishka is a small young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Freundeskreis Notfellchen e.V. in Dorsten.

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 Mishka, answered.

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