Adopt Pearl

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 5 years

Pearl – the female dog who sees the world in her own unique way → Breed: mixed breed → Gender: female → Born: 04/2021 → Size / Weight: 56 cm / 20 kg → Neutered: yes → Vaccinated: yes → Identification: Chip → Compatible with: male dogs and female dogs → Incompatible with: N/A → Sponsorships possible: yes Description: Pearl is a medium-sized female dog who immediately captivates with her elegant demeanor. She carries her handicap with dignity. Pearl has only one eye. For dogs, this primarily means a limited field of vision – but Pearl has learned to handle it with confidence. She orients herself securely, moves curiously through her environment, and quickly finds solutions when her angle of view doesn't suffice. Just as she has long adapted to her special way of seeing, her people will soon realize: It's simply part of her – and living with it is wonderful. Pearl has not yet experienced life in a house. Many things will be new for her: everyday sounds, living together with humans, the small rituals that provide security. She needs people who give her time, let her settle in calmly, and show her step by step the beautiful sides of life. It is important that her people pay attention to not surprising Pearl from her blind side when speaking to or touching her – a gentle word or a light movement from the front gives her security. Outside, she enjoys exploring the world:

Sie trägt ihr Handicap mit Würde. Pearl hat nur ein Auge. Für Hunde bedeutet das in erster Linie ein eingeschränktes Sichtfeld – doch Pearl hat gelernt, damit souverän umzugehen. Sie orientiert sich sicher, bewegt sich neugierig durch ihre Umgebung und findet schnell Lösungen, wenn ihr Blickwinkel einmal nicht reicht. So wie sie selbst sich längst an ihre besondere Sichtweise gewöhnt hat, werden auch ihre Menschen schnell merken: Es gehört einfach zu ihr – und es lebt sich wunderbar damit. Pearl kennt das Leben in einem Haus bisher noch nicht. Für sie wird vieles neu sein: Geräusche im Alltag, das Zusammenleben mit Menschen, die kleinen Rituale, die Geborgenheit geben. Sie braucht Menschen, die ihr Zeit schenken, sie in Ruhe ankommen lassen und ihr Schritt für Schritt die schönen Seiten des Lebens zeigen. Wichtig ist, dass ihre Menschen darauf achten, Pearl nicht von ihrer blinden Seite überraschend anzusprechen oder zu berühren – ein sanftes Wort oder eine leichte Bewegung von vorne geben ihr Sicherheit. Draußen genießt sie es, die Welt zu erkunden: der Geruch von frischem Gras, die Wä

About Pearl

What life with Pearl looks like

Pearl is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein Franz von Assisi 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 Pearl, answered.

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