Adopt Peppa

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 10 years

Peppa Female Estimated to be 10 years old or younger Peppa came to us as a stray and in very poor condition; she was emaciated, her hind legs were not functioning, and she was incontinent. It is suspected that she was used as a breeding dog and when she was no longer useful for that purpose, she was abandoned. Despite this, she is a super loving and food-driven female dog who appreciates any attention. We have nursed her back to health, first practicing walking with a wheelchair, and now she can manage quite well without it. The current veterinary diagnosis is myelopathy. However, she remains incontinent, and it is unlikely to improve, unfortunately due to her breed and age. Anyone interested in her must be aware that she is not an easy dog and requires full-time care. Some symptoms here are age-related.

Peppa Weiblich Schätzungsweise 10 oder jünger Peppa kam als Fundhund und in sehr schlechtem Zustand zu uns, sie war abgemagert, ihre Hinterbeine funktionierten nicht und sie war inkontinent. Man vermutet, dass sie als Zuchthund verwendet wurde und als sie dafür nicht mehr nützlich war, wurde sie ausgesetzt. Trotzdem ist sie eine super liebe und verfressene Hündin, die sich über jede Aufmerksamkeit freut.Wir haben sie wieder aufgepäppelt, zuerst haben wir laufen mit dem Rollstuhl geübt und mittlerweile klappt es auch wieder ziemlich gut ohne.Der aktuelle Befund des Tierarztes lautet Myelopathie.Allerdings ist Sie inkontinent und es wird wahrscheinlich auch nicht mehr besser, leider ist das Rasse- und Altersbedingt. Wer Interesse an ihr hat, muss sich bewusst sein, dass sie kein einfacher Hund und Vollzeit pflegebedürftig ist.

About Peppa

What life with Peppa looks like

Peppa is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein Marienberg und Umgebung e.V. in Germany.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇩🇪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 Peppa, answered.

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