Paca

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 5 years

Paca is a beautiful mixed-breed female dog who was used for hunting. She lived with a hunter in very poor conditions. In November 2021, animal welfare workers were able to rescue Paca from there and take her to the our shelter. She is very mistrustful of people and one must give her time. Her heart and soul can only be won with much love and patience, but it is definitely worth it. Paca is compatible with other dogs, but does not need to be. We should test her for cat compatibility. Paca enjoys life in the house and the warm, soft bed for sleeping.

Paca ist eine hübsche Mischlingshündin, die zur Jagd eingesetzt wurde. Sie lebte bei einem Jäger in sehr schlechter Haltung. Im November 2021 konnten die Tierschützer Paca von dort rausholen und mit ins Refugium nehmen. Sie ist dem Menschen gegenüber sehr misstrauisch und man muss ihr Zeit geben. Ihr Herz und ihre Seele kann man nur mit viel Liebe und Geduld gewinnen aber es lohnt sich auf jeden Fall. Paca ist verträglich mit anderen Hunden, braucht sie aber nicht. Katzenverträglichkeit müsste man testen. Paca genießt das Leben im Haus und das warme weiche Bett zum Schlafen.

About Paca

What life with Paca looks like

Paca is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Pfotenhilfe Sachsen e.V. in Germany.

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 Paca, answered.

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