Peca

Unknown

Peca was one of the emergency puppies from Almeria. We found nice people who will give her a great home. From the moment of her arrival, it was clear that human and dog had found each other. We are sure that Peca will have a very nice time in her new home. We wish Peca and her new family a worry-free and happy future together. We celebrated Peca's first birthday at her new home on February 2nd, and I thought I would report back. So, she is doing great, she is lively, friendly to all people and other dogs, and she is mainly interested in playing and running around. Food is often not so interesting. We also had her neutered on January 23rd at the practice of Fr. Meyer-Götz, and she handled it all very well. We were surprised how fit she already was on the same evening at the pick-up. This was very different from Ricky, who didn't go near the wound and we didn't need a collar either. We are often approached on the street because of her, and everyone is full of praise. "What a handsome boy," we often hear. She also responds well to "Here," and she can be walked off-leash in the field without a problem. She has also accepted the whistle well. The training sessions and regular training have definitely paid off. At home, she is very cuddly and will lie down next to anyone who is sitting or lying down. So, all in all, she is a wonderful dog, and we didn't want to miss her. Here are a few pictures and also some videos. To enlarge an image, please click on it.

Peca war einer der Notfallwelpen aus Almeria. Für sie haben wir nette Menschen gefunden die ihr ein tolles Zuhause geben. Schon bei der Ankunft war uns klar, hier haben sich Mensch und Hund gefunden. Wir sind sicher Peca wird es in ihrem neuen Zuhause sehr schön haben. Wir wünschen Peca und ihrer neuen Familie eine sorgenfreie und glückliche Zukunft miteinander. Post aus dem neuen Zuhause mit Peca haben wir ja jetzt am 2.Februar ihren ersten Geburtstag gefeiert und da dachte ich mir ich berichte mal wieder. Also ihr geht es prächtig, sie ist munter lebhaft, freundlich zu allen Menschen und anderen Hunden und vorrangig am Spielen und Toben interessiert. Futter ist oft nicht so interessant. Wir haben sie auch am 23.1. kastrieren lassen in der Praxis von Fr. Meyer-Götz und die Maus hat alles bestens überstanden. Wir haben uns gewundert wie fit sie schon am gleichen Tag Abends zur Abholung bereits wieder war. Das sah bei Ricky damals ganz anders aus. Sie ging auch nicht an die Wunde und einen Kragen haben wir auch nicht gebraucht. Wir werden oft auf der Strasse wegen ihr angesprochen und alle Welt ist voll des Lobs. „Was ein schönes Kerlchen“ hören wir oft. Sie hört auch gut auf „Hier“ und man kann sie ohne Weiteres ohne Leine im Feld laufen lassen. Die Pfeife hat sie auch gut akzeptiert. Die Trainerstunden und regelmässiges Training haben sich doch ausgezahlt. Zuhause ist sie sehr verschmust und legt sich zu einem sobald man irgendwo sitzt oder liegt. Also rundum ein Prachthund und wir wollten sie nicht mehr missen. Hier ein paar Bilder und auch Videos. Zur Vergrößerung bitte ein Bild anklicken.

About Peca

What life with Peca looks like

Peca is a medium-sized adult dog waiting at Tierschutzverein Second Chance Dogs e.V. in Zornheim.

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 Peca, answered.

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