How do I contact the shelter about Shakira?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Ein Herz für Streuner e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Shakira on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Shakira if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Ein Herz für 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 Shakira 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 Shakira 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 Ein Herz für Streuner e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Shakira 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.

adoption requirements adoption process Adopt this animal now! Happy End for Shakira! Her story: Sweet! Sweeter!! Shakira!!! The name “Shakira” means “the Grateful” among other things – but we thank the Dog-God that he sent us this wonderful creature. Shakira is a female dog who warms every heart. She was rescued from the public shelter in Zalau and now waits in cramped conditions for a loving home or family. How she ended up at the public shelter, we don’t know. But we suspect that Shakira had a very difficult past, as her teeth bear witness to deprivation and suffering: many are worn and blunt, which usually means that a desperate attempt was made to bite through a chain or fence to gain freedom. Therefore, we are now doing everything we can to offer our Shakira a beautiful future with all the things that make dogs happy. Our local helpers are absolutely thrilled with Shakira. She is described as incredibly lovable, approachable, and unobtrusive. Shakira already shows herself in Zalau as a dream companion, quietly and attentively observing the world with her beautiful sparkling button eyes. Our sweet mouse already walks quite well on the leash. A few training sessions would ensure that she becomes even more secure. Overall, Shakira still needs to learn some basic dog lessons. An initial dog by her side could be supportive. We currently don’t know how Shakira reacts to cats. Our cuddly sweetness is 47 cm tall and weighs 17 kg. What we are sure of: Shakira is an incredibly affectionate, young female dog who deserves the best and must finally arrive in a comfortable and reliable home. Shakira’s little suitcase is packed. She brings her EU pet passport, is neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, dewormed, and flea-treated. She can also be fostered. Shakira would initially be very happy with a foster home. Would you like to grin at Shakira in competition, show her the world on extended walks, and fluff the pillow in the dog bed for the sweet mouse at night? Thank you Ker W. for giving Shakira this beautiful name and thus an identity and the chance at a wonderful dog life. Status: 22.05.

Vermittlungsvoraussetzungen Vermittlungsablauf Jetzt dieses Tier anfragen! Vermittlungsvoraussetzungen Vermittlungsablauf Happy End für Shakira! Ihre Geschichte: Süß! Süßer!! Shakira!!! Der Name „Shakira“ bedeutet unter anderem „die Dankbare“ – doch wir bedanken uns beim Hunde-Gott, dass er uns dieses wunderbare Geschöpf geschickt hat. Shakira ist eine Hündin, die jedes Herz erwärmt. Sie wurde aus dem öffentlichen Shelter in Zalau gerettet und wartet nun in beengten Verhältnissen auf einen Lebensmensch oder eine Familie. Wie sie ins öffentliche Shelter kam, wissen wir nicht. Wir ahnen aber, dass Shakira eine sehr schwierige Vergangenheit hatte, denn ihre Zähne geben Zeugnis von Entbehrung und Leid: viele von ihnen sind abgenutzt und stumpf, was meist bedeutet, dass der verzweifelte Versuch unternommen wurde, eine Kette oder einen Zaun durchzubeißen, um in Freiheit zu gelangen. Deshalb setzen wir nun alles daran, unserer Shakira eine schöne Zukunft mit all den Dingen, die Hunde glücklich machen, zu bieten. Unsere Helferinnen und Helfer vor Ort sind absolut begeistert von Shakira. Sie wird als unglaublich liebenswert, zugänglich und unaufdringlich beschrieben. Shakira zeigt sich bereits in Zalau als Traum-Gefährtin, die die Welt ruhig und aufmerksam mit ihren wunderschönen funkelnden Knopfaugen beobachtet. Unsere süße Maus läuft bereits recht passabel an der Leine. Die ein oder andere Trainingseinheit würden dafür sorgen, dass sie noch sicherer wird. Insgesamt muss Shakira noch einige Lektionen des Hunde-1×1 lernen. Ein Erst-Hund an ihrer Seite könnte dabei unterstützend sein. Wie Shakira auf Katzen reagiert, wissen wir aktuell leider nicht. Unsere kuschelige Süßigkeit ist 47 cm groß und wiegt 17 kg. Was wir ganz sicher wissen: Shakira ist eine unglaublich zugewandte, noch junge Hündin, die nur das Beste verdient und endlich in einem gemütlichen und zuverlässigen Zuhause ankommen muss. Shakiras kleiner Koffer ist gepackt. Sie bringt ihren EU-Haustierausweis mit, ist kastriert, gechipt, geimpft, entwurmt, entfloht und kann nach positiver Vorkontrolle und gegen eine Schutzgebühr von 500 Euro ihren Charme bei ihrem neuen Lebensmensch versprühen. Auch über eine Pflegestelle würde sich Shakira zunächst sehr freuen. Möchtest du mit Shakira um die Wette grinsen, ihr während ausgedehnter Spaziergänge die Welt zeigen und der süßen Maus am Abend das Kissen im Körbchen aufschütteln? Danke Ker W., dass du Shakira diesen wunderschönen Namen und ihr somit eine Identität und die Chance auf ein schönes Hunde-Leben geschenkt hast. Stand: 22.05.2025

About Shakira

What life with Shakira looks like

Shakira is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Ein Herz für Streuner e.V. in München.

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.
