Zecke

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 15 years

Charakter: Zecke ist ein recht fitter, aber schon fast tauber Senior, der seine Menschen erst einmal geduldig kennenlernen muss. Hat er Vertrauen gefasst, ist er aufgeschlossen und loyal. Anderen Hunden gegenüber zeigt er ein gutes Sozialverhalten. Pöbler werden ignoriert, das hat Zecke in seinem Alter nicht mehr nötig. Keine

About Zecke

What life with Zecke looks like

Zecke is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Hinterste Mühle in Neubrandenburg.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇩🇪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 Zecke, answered.

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