Adopt Santy

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 2 years

Ref. No.: w-preveza-santy-f-0324 Update October 2025: Our Santy is still waiting - could it be because she often stands in her own way? Sometimes she takes a treat, but sometimes she just can't bring herself to do it when visitors come to her enclosure. With the staff at the shelter, it's a completely different story. If only she could finally be with her people… Update June 2025: Santy is now 1.5 years old and has never had a family of her own. When will the beautiful female dog finally get her chance with loving people? Update August 2024: Santy currently has a shoulder height of about 57cm and weighs 24.6kg. She shows herself, like her siblings, to be friendly and playful. March 2024: Bella, Lisa, Santy & Rex are likely siblings and originally come from Preveza on the mainland. The dogs are usually cared for on the street by animal welfare workers there, and we support them as much as possible. To give them a safe and dog-friendly life, we took them into the our shelter on Corfu. The group of puppies is typically playful and good-natured. We hope for loving people who will give these dog children a wonderful home and explore the world with them! All dogs are vaccinated, microchipped, and have an EU pet passport.

I-Nr.: w-preveza-santy-f-0324 Update Oktober 2025: Unsere Santy wartet leider immer noch - liegt es daran, dass sie sich oft selbst im Weg steht? Manchmal nimmt sie ein Leckerchen, aber manchmal kann sie sich einfach nicht überwinden, wenn Besucher in ihr Gehege kommen. Bei den Mitarbeiterinnen im Shelter sieht das ganz anders aus. Wenn sie doch endlich bei ihren Menschen ankommen dürfte… Update Juni 2025: Santy ist mittlerweile 1,5 Jahre alt und hat ihr ganzes Leben lang noch keine eigene Familie gehabt. Wann bekommt die schöne Hündin endlich ihre Chance bei liebevollen Menschen? Update August 2024: Santy hat aktuell eine Schulterhöhe von etwa 57cm bei 24,6kg Gewicht. Sie zeigt sich wie ihre Geschwister als freundlich und verspielt. März 2024: Bella, Lisa, Santy & Rex sind vermutlich Geschwister und kommen ursprünglich aus Preveza auf dem Festland. Die Hunde werden dort von Tierschützern in der Regel auf der Straße betreut und wir unterstützen nach Möglichkeit. Um ihnen ein sicheres & hundegerechtes Leben zu ermöglichen, wurden sie von uns im Tierheim auf Korfu aufgenommen. Die Rasselbande ist welpentypisch verspielt und gut drauf. Wir wünschen uns für die Hundekinder liebevolle Interessenten, die ihnen ein schönes Zuhause schenken und mit ihnen gemeinsam die Welt entdecken! Alle Hunde sind erstgeimpft, gechipt und haben einen EU-Heimtierausweis. 20251026 02 Santy Oktober 2025

About Santy

What life with Santy looks like

Santy is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierhilfe Korfu e.V. in Ratingen.

An young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. 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 Santy, answered.

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