Selli

Collie · Female · Adult · 6 years

Selli – from the shy soul to the loyal companion! Around 5-6 years old, neutered! Selli is a wonderful short-haired Collie mix lady who has undergone a remarkable transformation. When she came to us, she was a shy female dog who retreated from many things. However, with patience, consistent training, and loving affection, she has become a more confident and lively companion. At first, Selli is cautious with new people – but who wants her heart must know the right key: treats. Once she has trust, she shows her whole loving, clingy side, actively seeking closeness and demanding cuddles. Selli loves long walks, is well-leash trained, travels comfortably in the car, and shows her best side at the vet. She loves water and is ready for almost anything with a treat – "Sit" is already mastered like a little model student. Selli gets along well with other dogs. In her new home, a confident male dog can live alongside her, providing guidance. Her future home should ideally be in a rural location, with its own garden, so she can relax there in peace. There shouldn’t be too many stairs, as she tries to avoid them. With her steady walking companion, Selli regularly experiences small adventures, but now she is more than ready for the next step: her own home, where she can finally settle in. Selli in numbers: - around 5-6 years old, female, neutered - shoulder height at 04539 Groitzsch OT Oellschütz ca. 55 cm Contact: Deborah Ziegel (Animal Shelter Manager) feel free to send a WhatsApp message) Email:

Selli – vom schüchternen Seelchen zur treuen Gefährtin! Ca. 5-6 Jahre,kastriert! Selli ist eine wunderschöne Kurzhaarcollie-Mix-Dame, die eine beeindruckende Entwicklung hinter sich hat. Als sie zu uns kam, war sie eine ängstliche Hündin, die sich vor vielen Dingen zurückzog. Doch mit Geduld, konsequentem Training und liebevoller Zuwendung hat sie sich zu einer selbstbewussteren und lebensfrohen Begleiterin gewandelt. Bei neuen Menschen ist Selli anfangs noch vorsichtig – doch wer ihr Herz gewinnen möchte, muss nur den richtigen Schlüssel kennen: Leckerlis. Hat sie einmal Vertrauen gefasst, zeigt sie ihre ganze liebevolle, anhängliche Seite, sucht aktiv Nähe und fordert Streicheleinheiten ein. Selli liebt lange Spaziergänge, ist gut leinenführig, fährt problemlos im Auto mit und zeigt sich auch beim Tierarzt von ihrer besten Seite. Wasser findet sie großartig und für ein Leckerli ist sie zu fast allem bereit – ''Sitz'' beherrscht sie bereits wie eine kleine Musterschülerin. Mit anderen Hunden ist Selli gut verträglich. In ihrem neuen Zuhause darf gerne ein souveräner Rüde an ihrer Seite leben, an dem sie sich orientieren kann. Ihr zukünftiges Heim sollte möglichst ländlich gelegen sein, am besten mit eigenem Garten, damit sie dort in Ruhe entspannen kann. Viele Treppen sollte es nicht geben, da sie diese möglichst vermeiden sollte. Mit ihrer festen Gassigeherin erlebt Selli regelmäßig kleine Abenteuer, doch nun ist sie mehr als bereit für den nächsten Schritt: ein eigenes Zuhause, in dem sie endgültig ankommen darf. Selli in Zahlen: - ca 5-6 Jahre alt, weiblich, kastriert - befindet sich in 04539 Groitzsch OT Oellschütz Schulterhöhe ca. 55 cm Kontaktaufnahme: Deborah Ziegel (Tierheimleitung) gerne eine WhatsApp schreiben) E-Mail: Zurück

About Selli

What life with Selli looks like

Selli is a large adult collie dog waiting at Collies suchen ein Zuhause in Oldenburg.

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 Selli, answered.

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