How do I contact the shelter about Smilla?

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

Can I adopt Smilla if I live in another country?

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

Smilla

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 2 years

Smilla - a little fighter looking for her home 🐾❤️ Smilla was taken in during the Smârdan action. Bianca couldn't look away at the sight of the little dog - the little female dog was in a really terrible condition and desperately needed help. Now Smilla is in the clinic and is being lovingly cared for. She has already given birth to puppies, which caused her coat to fall out. With a lot of care, vitamins and good nutrition, she should now regain her strength. Otherwise, Smilla is healthy, she eats well and shows that she is slowly regaining her strength. She is still a bit thin, but we are confident that she will recover well. Smilla has obviously had to go through a lot in her life. Now a new, better chapter should begin for her - with people who give her love, security and a sense of belonging. ❤️ Smilla is waiting for her chance at a loving home. Who wants to show this brave little dog how beautiful a dog's life can be?

Smilla – eine kleine Kämpferin auf der Suche nach ihrem Zuhause 🐾❤️ Smilla wurde im Zuge der Smârdan-Aktion aufgenommen. Bianca konnte bei ihrem Anblick nicht wegsehen – die kleine Hündin befand sich in einem wirklich schrecklichen Zustand und brauchte dringend Hilfe. Nun ist Smilla in der Klinik und wird liebevoll versorgt. Sie hat bereits Welpen zur Welt gebracht, woraufhin ihr Fell ausfiel. Mit viel Fürsorge, Vitaminen und guter Ernährung soll sie nun wieder zu Kräften kommen. Ansonsten ist Smilla gesund, sie frisst gut und zeigt, dass sie langsam wieder neue Kraft schöpft. Noch ist sie etwas dünn, aber wir sind zuversichtlich, dass sie sich gut erholen wird. Smilla hat in ihrem Leben offenbar schon viel durchmachen müssen. Jetzt soll für sie ein neues, besseres Kapitel beginnen – mit Menschen, die ihr Liebe, Sicherheit und Geborgenheit schenken. ❤️ Smilla wartet auf ihre Chance auf ein liebevolles Zuhause. Wer möchte dieser tapferen Hündin zeigen, wie schön ein Hundeleben sein kann?

About Smilla

What life with Smilla looks like

Smilla is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Ein Herz für Fellnasen e.V. in Waakirchen.

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.
