Sissilein

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Senior · 14 years

I am Sissilein, a Havana-Yorkshire Terrier mix, and was born on 02.05.2012. My mistress always called me Mausi or Princess. I am healthy, house-trained, very smart, very easy to groom, and very playful. But I am also a little spoiled and love-dependent. I bark only out of joy or fear and sleep a lot. Due to my laid-back nature, I was always allowed to be part of everything in my previous life. I love two daily rounds outside because I can really sniff around. I also feel perfectly at home in a garden. Other dogs are no problem for me if the chemistry is right. I hunt cats, but only if they run away, and otherwise, I get along well with them because I also have a cat friend. In traffic, I behave calmly. With consistency, I can be very well trained, as I will do almost anything for treats, which is why I can also perform tricks like paw, roll over, sit, shame you, turn around, and play dead. Being alone is not something I enjoy at all. I have a fear of things like vacuum cleaners and brooms, and I hide until the danger passes. Bathing does not bring me much joy, just like car rides, unless I can stretch my head out against the wind, summer or winter. I live happily with older children, but younger children could cause me stress, and I prefer it to be more quiet at home. I wish for my future to be with a warm, loving family, whether young or old, where I can live my remaining life happily and with dignity. A family that I can be a part of, that takes me everywhere. I know that I will bring a lot of joy if everything is right.

Ich bin Sissilein, ein Havaneser-Yorkshire-Terrier-Mix, und wurde am 02.05.2012 geboren. Mein Frauchen nannte mich immer Mausi oder Prinzessin. Gesund bin ich, stubenrein, schlau, sehr pflegeleicht, verspielt. Aber auch ein wenig verwöhnt und liebesbedürftig. Ich belle nur vor Freude oder Angst und schlafe viel. Durch meine entspannte Art, durfte ich in meinem bisherigen Leben immer und überall mit dabei sein. Zwei tägliche Runden im Freien liebe ich, denn da kann ich richtig schnüffeln. Auch in einem Garten fühle ich mich pudelwohl. Andere Hunde sind für mich kein Problem, wenn die Chemie stimmt. Katzen jage ich, aber nur wenn sie davon rennen, ansonsten komme ich gut mit Ihnen aus, denn ich habe auch eine Katzenfreundin. Im Straßenverkehr verhalte ich mich ruhig. Mit Konsequenz kann ich sehr gut trainiert werden, denn für Leckerlis mach ich so ziemlich alles, weshalb ich auch einige Kunststückchen wie Pfote, Rolle, Männchen, schähm dich, dreh dich und tot, kann. Alleine zu sein mag ich so gar nicht. Vor einigen Dingen wie z.B. Staubsaugern, Putz­stangen habe ich Angst und verstecke mich, bis die Gefahr vorüber ist. Zu duschen bereitet mir keine große Freude, genauso wie das Autofahren, es sei denn ich kann meinen Kopf weit gegen den Fahrtwind hinausstrecken, Sommer wie Winter. Mit älteren Kindern lebe ich gerne zusammen, kleinere Kinder könnten mir jedoch Stress bereiten und zu Hause habe ich es dann doch lieber eher ruhig. Ich wünsche mir für meine Zukunft eine herzliche, liebende Familie, egal ob jung oder alt, wo ich den Rest meines Lebens glücklich und würdevoll weiterle­ben darf. Eine Familie für die ich als Familienmitglied zähle, welche mich überall mit hin nimmt. Ich weiß, dass ich durch meine Wesensart viel Freude be­reiten werde, wenn alles stimmt.

About Sissilein

What life with Sissilein looks like

Sissilein is a small senior mixed breed dog waiting at Tierhilfe Franken e.V. in Lauf.

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. 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 Sissilein, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Sissilein?
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 Sissilein on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Sissilein 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 Sissilein 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 Sissilein 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 Sissilein 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.
