How do I contact the shelter about Özilie?

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 Özilie on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Özilie 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 Özilie 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 Özilie 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 Özilie 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.

Özilie

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 9 years

Özili can now be rehomed as a second dog with your family in Gerichshain after a successful castration! …………………………………………………………………………………………………. My name is Özilie. I am female, will only be rehomed with a castration condition, microchipped, and was born in January 2017. I will be around 30cm in size. I am looking for a new home starting in mid-April 2017. My caretakers say about me: Özilie is a surrender dog from the surrounding area. The exact origin is unclear, but she definitely did not come from the best breeding circles originally. The brood already has two healed old fractures, and the coat is not perfect. For safety, a flea treatment has already been carried out, and we are waiting for the skin and coat to regenerate.

Özili konnte nach erfolgreich abgeschlossener Kastration nun endgültig an Ihre Familie in Gerichshain als Zweithund vermittelt werden! …………………………………………………………………………………………………. Mein Name ist Özilie. Ich bin weiblich, werde nur mit Kastrationsauflage vermittelt, gechipt und bin im Januar 2017 geboren. Ich werde circa 30cm groß. Ich suche ab Mitte April 2017 ein neues Zuhause. Das sagen meine Betreuer über mich: Özilie ist ein Abgabehund aus dem Umland. Die genaue Herkunft ist ungeklärt, sicher kommt sie aber ursprünglich nicht aus den besten Zuchtkreisen.Die Rute hat schon zwei verheilte alte Brüche aufzuweisen, auch das Fell ist nicht perfekt.Sicherheitshalber wurde schon eine Milbenbehandlung durchgeführt, wir warten gerade darauf, das Haut und Fell sich regenerieren. Da eine Herkunft aus Welpenhändlerkreisen nicht auszuschliessen ist, werden wir noch einen Bluttest auf Reisekrankheiten vor

About Özilie

What life with Özilie looks like

Özilie is a small senior mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Schkortitz in Grimma.

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.
