Ronja

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 8 years

Ronja originally comes from the public animal shelter in Greece. Our hearts broke when we found the open-hearted Herdimix lady in that small kennel. Not much is known about her background. What we do know is that Ronja is very friendly, playful and full of joy for life. Since she has been with our animal welfare volunteer Giota, where she gets daylight and contact with people, she has truly blossomed. Now all that is missing is her suitable family, who will make Ronja's happiness complete. She enjoys being with her people. She also responds wonderfully to children, though given her size they should already be steady on their feet. We can well imagine children aged 12 and up who already know how to handle dogs living in the same household. With male dogs she is playful and curious; with female dogs, it depends on sympathy. Ronja has not yet gotten to know many things. She still needs to learn to walk on a lead and certain basic rules. She is a large female who needs consistent leadership and clear rules. Since there is surely some Livestock Guardian Dog mix in Ronja, we are looking for people who have familiarized themselves with this breed. Sufficient space and a garden are a must. Are you the one person who would like to show Ronja the good life of a dog?

DE·Show original

Ronja kommt ursprünglich aus dem öffentlichen Tierheim in Griechenland. Uns brach es das Herz als wir die aufgeschlossene Herdimix-Dame in diesen kleinen Zwinger vorgefunden haben. Zu ihrer Vorgeschichte ist nicht viel bekannt. Was wir jedoch wissen ist, dass Ronja sehr freundlich, verspielt und lebensfroh ist. Seit sie nun bei unserer Tierschützerin Giota ist, Tageslicht und Kontakt zu Menschen bekommt, blüht sie förmlich auf. Nun fehlt nur noch ihre passende Familie, die Ronjas Glück vollkommen macht. Sie genießt es bei ihren Menschen zu sein. Auch bei Kindern reagiert sie toll, jedoch sollten diese aufgrund ihrer Größe bereits standfest sein. Kinder ab 12 Jahren, die den Umgang mit Hunden bereits kennen, können wir uns gut im gleichen Haushalt vorstellen. Bei Rüden reagiert sie verspielt und neugierig, bei Hündinnen entscheidet die Sympathie. Ronja hat noch nicht viel kennengelernt. An der Leine laufen und gewisse Grundregeln muss sie noch lernen. Sie ist eine große Hündin, die konsequente Führung und klare Regeln braucht. Da in Ronja sicher ein Herdenschutzhund-Mix steckt, suchen wir für sie Menschen, die sich mit dieser Rasse auseinandergesetzt haben. Ausreichend Platz und Garten sind ein Muss. Bist du dieser eine Mensch, der Ronja das schöne Hundeleben zeigen möchte?

About Ronja

What life with Ronja looks like

Ronja is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Fellnasen Stuttgart e.V. in Stuttgart.

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

Frequently asked

Adopting Ronja, answered.

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