Roxalie &#8211

Mixed Breed · Female

Roxalie had great luck coming to us. The sudden death of her owner in the Oberpfalz drastically changed her life and that of her brother Baltos. After barely knowing each other in the past few years, they now discover how exciting life can be. Roxalie has since warmed up wonderfully in her foster family and has made a lot of new experiences. Whether it's a horse stable, a mountain, or a beer garden, whether it's garden work or chatting with the neighbors … she is always calm and close to her people. Roxalie is balanced, quiet, and affectionate, a charming roommate. She inspects new things with caution and masters them together with her people. She likes to drive, can also be left alone sometimes, and runs super well on a leash and will surely be able to go freely later … retrieving is already more than good. Joggers and cyclists play no role. Dog encounters are simple, but for playing, the chemistry must be very good 😊. The neighbor's cat is, however, chased off the premises. Roxalie can handle the basics of dog training and learns quickly and willingly. Nevertheless, she needs confident people who give her security. The lovely female dog now wishes for her own home with a large garden or yard, where she can observe everything in peace and looks forward to her own people (preferably with a dog), to whom she entrusts her big dog heart for more adventures.

Roxalie hatte großes Glück, zu uns zu kommen. Der plötzliche Tod ihrer Besitzerin in der Oberpfalz veränderte ihr Leben und das ihres Bruders Baltos drastisch. Nachdem die beiden in den letzten Jahren wenig kennengelernt haben, erfahren sie nun, wie spannend das Leben sein kann. Mittlerweile ist Roxalie in ihrer Pflegefamilie wunderbar aufgetaut und hat jede Menge neuer Erfahrungen gemacht. Egal ob Pferdestall, Berg oder Biergarten, egal ob Gartenarbeit oder Schwatz mit den Nachbarn … sie ist immer gelassen und nah bei ihren Leuten. Roxalie ist ausgeglichen, ruhig und anschmiegsam, ein liebenswürdiger Mitbewohner. Neues wird bedächtig inspiziert und gemeinsam mit ihren Leuten gemeistert. Sie fährt gern Auto, kann gut auch mal allein bleiben. Läuft SUPER an der Leine und kann bestimmt auch später frei gehen … das Abrufen klappt schon MEHR als gut. Jogger und Radfahrer spielen keine Rolle. Hundebegegnungen sind einfach, fürs Spielen muss die Chemie schon sehr stimmen 😊. Die Nachbarskatze wird jedoch aus dem Grundstück verjagt. Roxalie kann das Grund 1*1 der Hundeerziehung und lernt schnell und gern. Dennoch braucht sie souveräne Menschen, die ihr Sicherheit geben. Die liebenswerte Hündin wünscht sich jetzt ein eigenes Zuhause mit großem Garten oder Hof, wo sie in aller Seelenruhe alles beobachten kann und freut sich auf ihre eigenen Leute (gern auch mit Hund), denen sie ihr großes Hundeherz für weitere Abenteuer anvertraut.

About Roxalie &#8211

What life with Roxalie &#8211 looks like

Roxalie &#8211 is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierhilfe Franken e.V. in Lauf.

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. 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 Roxalie &#8211, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Roxalie &#8211?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierhilfe Franken e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Roxalie &#8211 on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Roxalie &#8211 if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierhilfe Franken 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 Roxalie &#8211 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 Roxalie &#8211 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 Tierhilfe Franken e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Roxalie &#8211 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.
