How do I contact the shelter about Poppy?

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

Can I adopt Poppy if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Kleine & große Pfoten 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 Poppy 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 Poppy 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 Kleine & große Pfoten e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Poppy 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.

Poppy

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

Hündin – ca. 1,5 Jahre alt (Stand: September 2026) – ca. 45-50cm – kastriert – in Bulgarien Herkunft Gefunden wurde Poppy zusammen mit ihren Geschwistern in einem Feld. Ohne Mama saßen sie dort und wussten nicht wohin mit sich. Wir vermuten, dass der Mama etwas zugestoßen ist, oder sie einfach eingefangen wurde. Eine tierliebe Bulgarien nahm sie bei sich auf und bat uns, sie nach Deutschland zu vermitteln. Wesen Poppy ist zurückhaltender als Sunny und Lupin. Sie schickt ihre Brüder gern erst einmal vor, um die Lage auschecken zu lassen. Poppy sitzt dabei etwas außerhalb und schaut sich das Geschehen von dort aus an. Poppy ist zwar sehr sozial, lässt sich von ihrer Pflegestelle auch anfassen, fremde Menschen sind ihr aber erst einmal suspekt. Wenn du dich für Puppy interessierst, solltest du also etwas Zeit und Einfühlungsvermögen mitbringen, damit Poppy sich schnell bei dir einlebt. Ideal wäre ein Haus/eine Wohnung mit eingezäuntem Garten in einer ruhigen Wohngegend. Auch Poppy muss noch einiges lernen, wie Stubenreinheit, Leinenführigkeit etc. – wir sind uns jedoch sicher, dass sie all diese Dinge mit Liebe, Fürsorge und Geduld gerne lernen wird! Besonderheiten Poppy wurde positiv auf Ehrlichiose getestet. Ein positives Ergebnis im Schnelltest sagt nicht, dass die Krankheit ausgebrochen ist. In einem persönlichen Gespräch erzählen wir dir gerne mehr darüber. Behandlung: 4 Wochen mit Doxycyclin. *Wir weisen ausdrücklich darauf hin, dass sich Verhaltensweisen in einem neuen Umfeld nach einiger Zeit ändern können. Dies sollte bei jeder Adoption berücksichtigt werden! Du interessierst dich für Poppy? Dann füll gleich unsere Selbstauskunft aus. *Geschwister: Sunny & Lupin Selbstauskunft Adoption Selbstauskunft Pflegestelle

About Poppy

What life with Poppy looks like

Poppy is a large young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Kleine & große Pfoten e.V. in Germany (national, Bulgaria rescue focus).

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.
