How do I contact the shelter about Sula?

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

Can I adopt Sula if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Aurich (Animal Welfare Aurich 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 Sula 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 Sula 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 Tierheim Aurich (Animal Welfare Aurich e.V.) early rather than rehoming privately; they know Sula and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.

Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?

Sula

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 2 years

She came to us in early January 2024 at the animal shelter. At first, she was very insecure, but after a short period of getting used to her new environment, she showed how lively and open she can be. She greets people she trusts very warmly and tries to protect them. In February 2024, Sula underwent an operation on her eyes (rollders) and was also neutered. Both procedures were easily tolerated by her, and she is now fully integrated into our daily routine. She especially enjoys her regular walks with her regular walking companion. Sula is a female dog with character; she initially approaches strangers with suspicion and is happy to defend her territory. Therefore, she needs people who can show her with calmness, patience, and clear leadership that she does not have to take on the responsibility herself. With loving, consistent guidance, one quickly wins her trust, and then she becomes a loyal companion. With other dogs, Sula decides based on liking, but in her own home, she would rather be a solo princess. She handles encounters with fellow animals calmly and confidently under good guidance. She is not always friendly to males, as her liking decides. We have not yet tested her with children or small animals, but our farm cat finds her very exciting and would like to chase her. For Sula, we are looking for experienced dog owners who enjoy giving a safe, structured, and loving home to a strong but also very attached female dog.

Sie kam Ende Januar 2024 zu uns ins Tierheim. Zu beginn war sie sehr unsicher, doch nach einer kurzen Eingewöhnungszeit zeigte sie, wie lebensfroh und aufgeschlossen sie sein kann. Menschen, denen sie vertraut, begegnet sie sehr herzlich und versucht diese dann auch zu beschützen. Im Februar 2024 wurde Sula an den Augen (Rolllider) operiert und zugleich kastriert. Beide Eingriffe hat sie problemlos überstanden und ist mittlerweile fest in unseren Alltag integriert. Besonders genießt sie ihre regelmäßigen Spaziergänge mit ihrer festen Gassigängerin. Sula ist eine Hündin mit Charakter, Fremden gegenüber tritt sie zunächst skeptisch auf und verteidigt auch gerne ihr Revier. Deshalb braucht sie Menschen, die ihr mit Ruhe, Geduld und klarer Führung zeigen, dass sie nicht selbst die Verantwortung übernehmen muss. Mit liebevoller, konsequenter Begleitung gewinnt man schnell ihr Vertrauen und dann ist sie eine treue Begleiterin. Mit anderen Hunden entscheidet bei Sula die Sympathie, im eigenen Zuhause möchte sie aber lieber Einzelprinzessin sein. Begegnungen mit Artgenossen meistert sie mit guter Führung ruhig und souverän. Männern begegnet sie nicht immer freundlich, da entscheidet sie sehr nach Sympathie. Kinder und Kleintiere konnten wir bisher nicht testen unsere Hofkatze findet sie allerdings sehr spannend und würde ihr gerne nachjagen. Für Sula suchen wir erfahrene Hundehalter, die Freude daran haben, einer starken, aber auch sehr anhänglichen Hündin Sicherheit, Struktur und ein liebevolles Zuhause zu geben.

About Sula

What life with Sula looks like

Sula is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Aurich (Animal Welfare Aurich e.V.) in Aurich.

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.
