Simona

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 12 years

Simona konnte im März 2017 den rumänischen Shelter verlassen und zu uns auf die Casa kommen. Die schüchterne Fellnase braucht Zeit und Geduld und hat sicher wenig oder schlechte Erfahrungen mit Menschen gemacht. Leckerlis traut sie sich nun aber schon aus der Hand nehmen. Simona ist mit allen Hunden gut verträglich und kann ihren Platz in der Gruppe auch behaupten, wenn es sein muss. Für die scheue Maus suchen wir hundeerfahrene, geduldige Menschen, die ihr die Zeit geben, die sie braucht. Sie ist ja gerade mal erwachsen und wird sicher bei einer guten Betreuung noch viel lernen können. Ein souveräner Zweithund wäre sicher optimal und würde ihr dabei helfen, neue Dinge zu entdecken und zu erlernen. Wer mag der schüchternen Fellnase bis dahin ein wenig unter die Arme greifen mit einer Versorgungspatenschaft?

About Simona

What life with Simona looks like

Simona is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at Casa Animale e.V. in Gefrees.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇩🇪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 Simona, answered.

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