How do I contact the shelter about Paulinchen?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierhilfe Lebenswert e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Paulinchen on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Paulinchen if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierhilfe Lebenswert 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 Paulinchen 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 Paulinchen 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 Lebenswert e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Paulinchen 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.

Paulinchen

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 3 years

Hometown: Romania Breed: mixed breed Gender: female, neutered Color: black Shoulder height: 60 cmDate of birth: around December 2023Location: 49143 Bissendorf Paulinchen is an impressive female dog with a shoulder height of about 60 cm and a very big heart. In her familiar surroundings and with people she trusts, she shows her wonderful nature: she is a loyal soul who greatly enjoys the company of her trusted people and visibly delights when she sees her people. Once she has built trust, she turns into a real cuddle bug who values cuddles and shared moments on the couch. She also shows her best side when living with other animals, as she is absolutely cat-friendly and shows no prey drive. While she moves securely around the house, the outside world currently challenges her. Paulinchen is an insecure female dog outdoors, who needs time to adjust in unfamiliar situations or when meeting strangers. However, she also shows her charm here: a treat quickly finds a way into her heart, and she warms up quickly. Paulinchen is looking for people who can take her by the hand, offer her consistent guidance, and teach her that she can entrust her responsibility in difficult moments to her primary caregiver. A crucial factor for Paulinchen’s well-being is the presence of a confident fellow animal. She is highly attuned to other dogs and draws her own security from their calm demeanor. Best placed with a resident dog (second-dog home).

Herkunftsland: Rumänien Rasse: Mischling Geschlecht: weiblich, kastriert Farbe: schwarz Schulterhöhe: 60 cmGeburtsdatum: ca. Dezember 2023Standort: 49143 Bissendorf Paulinchen ist eine beeindruckende Hündin mit einer Schulterhöhe von etwa 60 cm und einem ganz großen Herzen. In ihrem gewohnten Umfeld und bei Menschen, denen sie vertraut, zeigt sie ihr wunderbares Wesen: Sie ist eine treue Seele, die die Nähe zu ihren Bezugspersonen sehr genießt und sich sichtlich freut, wenn sie ihre Menschen sieht. Hat sie erst einmal Vertrauen gefasst, entpuppt sie sich als richtige Schmusemaus, die Streicheleinheiten und gemeinsame Momente auf dem Sofa sehr schätzt. Auch im Zusammenleben mit anderen Tieren zeigt sie sich von ihrer besten Seite, denn sie ist absolut katzenverträglich und zeigt keinerlei Jagdtrieb. Während sie sich im Haus sicher bewegt, fordert die Außenwelt sie derzeit noch heraus. Paulinchen ist draußen eine unsichere Hündin, die in unbekannten Situationen oder bei Begegnungen mit fremden Menschen Zeit braucht. Hier zeigt sie jedoch ihre Bestechlichkeit: Über ein Leckerli findet man schnell einen Zugang zu ihr und sie taut zusehends auf. Paulinchen sucht Menschen, die sie souverän an die Hand nehmen, ihr konsequente Führung bieten und ihr vermitteln, dass sie die Verantwortung in schwierigen Momenten an ihre Bezugsperson abgeben darf.Ein ganz entscheidender Faktor für Paulinchens Wohlbefinden ist die Anwesenheit eines souveränen Artgenossen. Sie orientiert sich wahnsinnig stark an anderen Hunden und zieht aus deren Gelassenheit ihre eigene Sicherheit. Ein Zweithund im neuen Zuhause ist daher eine Grundvoraussetzung für ihre

About Paulinchen

What life with Paulinchen looks like

Paulinchen is a large young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierhilfe Lebenswert e.V. in Oberwies.

An young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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.
