Rita (mittelgroß)

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 3 years

curious, inquisitive, shy, friendly Our young female dog Rita with the cute curly tail is looking for a home. Rita is still a bit shy and unsure, but she only approaches people when others are around. Otherwise, she can be easily bribed with a treat. We are looking for a home for this pretty girl with loving people who have dog experience and can help her shed her shyness. A securely fenced garden and a confident only-dog environment, where Rita could find her way, would certainly be beneficial. This animal can be anxious in unfamiliar situations.

unsicher, neugierig, ängstlich, freundlich Unsere junge Hündin Rita mit dem süßen Kringelschwanz sucht nach einem Zuhause. Rita ist noch ein wenig schüchtern und unsicher, wirklich nah an den Menschen heran traut sie sich nur, wenn die anderen dabei sind. Ansonsten lässt sie sich aber gerne mit einem Leckerli bestechen. Wir suchen für das hübsche Mädel ein Zuhause bei liebevollen Menschen mit Hundeerfahrung, die ihr dabei helfen, ihre Schüchternheit abzulegen. Ein sicher eingezäunter Garten und ein souveräner Ersthund, an dem Rita sich orientieren könnte, wären sicherlich von Vorteil.

About Rita (mittelgroß)

What life with Rita (mittelgroß) looks like

Rita (mittelgroß) is a large young adult mixed breed dog waiting at SOKO Streuner e.V. in Bochum.

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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Rita (mittelgroß), answered.

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