Miss Pookie

Mixed Breed · Male

Miss Pookie is a lovely dog girl who lost her home due to a family move. She used to live with a male shepherd and gets along with most fellow animals. Being somewhat prey-driven, she isn't necessarily friends with cats. The little one is very intelligent, knows her basic commands, walks nicely on a leash, and handles car rides without problems. The cuddly, affectionate girl wants to be wherever everyone is. No wonder she finds being alone very difficult and sometimes shows a bit of jealousy. The fun mouse greets all women joyfully, while the male gender is initially viewed with some skepticism. Miss Pookie is now looking for a loving home with active people who will spoil her a little but also show her the right way and give her security.

DE·Show original

Miss Pookie ist ein entzückendes Hundemädchen, das wegen einem bevorstehenden Umzug der Familie ihr Zuhause verloren hat. Sie lebte bisher mit einem Schäferhundrüden zusammen und versteht sich mit den meisten Artgenossen. Nachdem sie etwas jagdlich motiviert ist, sind Katzen nicht unbedingt ihre Freunde. Die Kleine ist sehr intelligent, beherrscht ihre Grundkommandos, läuft schön an der Leine, auch das Autofahren meistert sie problemlos. Das verschmuste, anhängliche Mädel möchte am liebsten überall dabei sein. Kein Wunder, dass ihr das Alleine Bleiben sehr schwerfällt und sie manchmal ein wenig zur Eifersucht neigt. Die lustige Maus begrüßt alle Frauen freudig, das männliche Geschlecht wird anfänglich etwas skeptisch betrachtet. Miss Pookie wünscht sich nun ein liebevolles Zuhause bei aktiven Menschen, die sie ein wenig verwöhnen, ihr aber auch den richtigen Weg weisen und Sicherheit geben.

About Miss Pookie

What life with Miss Pookie looks like

Miss Pookie is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierhilfe Franken e.V. in Lauf.

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 Miss Pookie, answered.

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