How do I contact the shelter about Stella?

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

Can I adopt Stella if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — ITV Grenzenlos 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 Stella 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 Stella 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 ITV Grenzenlos e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Stella 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.

Stella

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 7 years

Stella, a Dachshund, begged for food at a gas station near Oradea. She was neither chipped nor spayed. She was brought to safety in Sisterea, nursed back to health, vaccinated, and spayed. Initially, she was quite shy and showed her teeth in fear. Now, she is well socialized and trusts almost everyone. She has not had a good life on the streets. She was exposed to cold and heat, hunger and thirst, and had terrible fear. Therefore, she now needs a quiet home and people with patience and understanding. She herself needs some time to gain trust and open up. After that, she will be very affectionate and open. This little cute lady has a kind and friendly nature. She enjoys attention and petting and shows herself very grateful for it. She enjoys walking, is fun and curious. She gets along well with other dogs and already walks well on a leash. At the shelter, she was medically pre-treated. She will receive a blood test for heartworms before departure. Stella was born around March 2019. She is only 27 cm tall and has been at the shelter since 6/2926. If you are interested in this dog, please contact: 05085 - 955171 or . Stella in the video:

Dackelhündin Stella hat an einer Tankstelle bei Oradea um Futter gebettelt. Sie war weder gechipt noch kastriert. Sie wurde in Sicherheit nach Sisterea gebracht, aufgepäppelt, geimpft und kastriert. Sie war anfangs ziemlich scheu und zeigte vor Angst die Zähne. Mittlerweile ist sie schon gut sozialisiert und vertraut fast jedem. Sie hat bisher kein schönes Leben auf der Straße gehabt. Sie war der Kälte und der Hitze, dem Hunger und dem Durst ausgesetzt. Seit dem 08.08.2026 ist die Hündin beim ITV Grenzenlos in einer Pflegestelle in Müden. Die kleine niedliche Dame hat eine liebe freundliche Art. Sie ist sehr zutraulich und mag gern gestreichelt werden. Sie hat Freude am Spazieren gehen, ist lustig und neugierig. Sie ist stubenrein und schaut sich sehr aufmerksam in ihrer Pflegestelle um. Auch das Autofahren ist kein Problem. Sie wäre auch ein Hund für Anfänger, die sich über die Haltung eines Hundes gut informiert haben. Im Tierheim wurde sie medizinisch vorbehandelt. Sie bekam vor der Ausreise einen Bluttest auf Herzwürmer mit negativem Ergebnis. Geboren wurde Stella ca, im März 2019. Sie ist nur 27 cm groß, im Tierheim ist sie seit 6/2926.

About Stella

What life with Stella looks like

Stella is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at ITV Grenzenlos e.V. in Essel.

An 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.
