Unsere Penny ist eine lebensfrohe und freundliche Hündin, die mit ihrem offenen Wesen alle Herzen im Sturm erobert. Sie liebt den Kontakt zu Menschen, versteht sich bestens mit ihren Artgenossen und bringt eine ordentliche Portion Lebensfreude mit. Penny ist aktiv und neugierig. Sie möchte die Welt entdecken und gemeinsam mit ihrer zukünftigen Familie viele schöne Abenteuer erleben. Vor Kurzem durfte sie erstmals einen Ausflug außerhalb des Tierheims machen. Anfangs war sie dabei noch etwas unsicher und vorsichtig, da sie vieles zum ersten Mal kennenlernen durfte. Doch ihre Neugier war größer als die Angst und sie erkundete ihre Umgebung mit wachsendem Interesse. Besonders angetan hat es ihr das Wasser. Für Penny wünschen wir uns ein liebevolles Zuhause bei aktiven Menschen, die Spaß daran haben, mit ihr die Welt zu erkunden und ihr die Aufmerksamkeit und Zuwendung schenken, die sie verdient. Wer eine fröhliche, soziale und bewegungsfreudige Hündin sucht, wird in Penny die perfekte Begleiterin finden.

About Penny

What life with Penny looks like

Penny is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierrettung Portugal e.V. in Mühlheim am Main.

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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Penny, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Penny?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierrettung Portugal e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Penny on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Penny if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierrettung Portugal 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Penny 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 Penny 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 Tierrettung Portugal e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Penny 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.
