Sylvi

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 3 years

Sylvi – our clever beauty Sylvi (40 cm shoulder height, 15 kg) is about 3 years old. Sylvi came to us in early June from a Romanian dog pound and is now in foster care with us in Gnarrenburg (Lower Saxony). Here Sylvi gets along wonderfully with other female and male dogs and enjoys playing together and being close to her fellow dogs. Sylvi now knows a cat that lives with dogs and gets along well with her. Contact with people is very important to Sylvi. She is very open and likes all people. She loves to cuddle and snuggle. Sylvi is agile and at times a bit boisterous. She follows on a drag line; walking on a leash still needs to be practiced with her. It would certainly be nice if Sylvi had a garden or property to romp around and explore. Car travel still needs to be practiced with her. Sylvi is house-trained. Being left alone for short periods is no problem for her. Indoors Sylvi is relaxed, has already gotten used to the various everyday noises and enjoys feeling secure. We can imagine Sylvi as a good friend for considerate children; she is robust and not easily startled, but she also already looks out for her own resources, so she is not suitable for small children. Sylvi is a lively female dog who needs to be guided lovingly, calmly and clearly by her people. Her people should already have dog experience or be willing to receive professional guidance, because Sylvi is a dog who has her own life experience and likes to make her own decisions. Confident, well-adjusted other dogs in the household are an enrichment for Sylvi. However, we also place Sylvi as a single dog; in that case, plenty of contact with other dogs must be ensured so that Sylvi can live out her social skills. Sylvi is neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, has her EU pet passport, has been treated against internal and external parasites, and her blood tests according to the Eastern Europe/Romania profile were without findings.

Sylvi – unsere gescheite Schönheit Sylvi (40 cm Schulterhöhe, 15 kg) ist ca. 3 Jahre alt. Sylvi kam Anfang Juni aus einem rumänischen Hundelager zu uns auf ihre Pflegestelle nach Gnarrenburg (Niedersachsen). Hier lebt Sylvi mit weiteren Hündinnen und Rüden prima zusammen und genießt das gemeinsame Spiel mit und die Nähe zu Artgenossen. Sylvi kennt nun eine hundeerfahrene Katze und lebt gut mit ihr zusammen. Der Kontakt zu Menschen ist für Sylvi sehr wichtig. Sie ist sehr aufgeschlossen und mag alle Menschen gut leiden. Sie schmust und kuschelt sehr gerne. Sylvi ist agil, teils etwas ungestüm. An der Schleppleine folgt sie, an der Leine laufen muss noch mit ihr geübt werden. Sicher wäre es schön, wenn Sylvi einen Garten oder ein Grundstück zum Toben und Erkunden zur Verfügung hat. Autofahren muss mit ihr noch geübt werden. Sylvi ist stubenrein. Kurzes Alleinebleiben bereitet Sylvi kein Problem. Im Haus ist Sylvi entspannt und hat sich bereits an die verschiedenen Alltagsgeräusche gewöhnt und mag die Geborgenheit. Sylvi können wir uns als gute Freundin für verständige Kinder vorstellen, sie ist robust und nicht schreckhaft, achtet aber auch schon mal auf ihre Ressourcen, daher ist sie nicht für kleine Kinder geeignet. Sylvi ist eine aufgeweckte Hündin, die von ihren Menschen liebevoll, ruhig und klar angeleitet werden muss. Ihre Menschen sollten bereits Hunderfahrung besitzen oder aber bereit sein sich professionell anleiten zu lassen, denn Sylvi ist eine Hündin, die eigene Lebenserfahrung besitzt und auch eigene Entscheidungen treffen mag. Souveräne andere Hunde im Haushalt sind für Sylvi eine Bereicherung. Wir vermitteln Sylvi aber auch als Einzelhündin, dann muss auf reichlich Hundekontakt geachtet werden, damit Sylvi ihre sozialen Kompetenzen ausleben kann. Sylvi ist kastriert, gechipt, geimpft, hat ihren EU-Heimtierausweis, ist gegen innere und äußere Parasiten behandelt und die Blutuntersuchungen entsprechend dem Osteuropa/Rumänien-Profil waren ohne Befund.

About Sylvi

What life with Sylvi looks like

Sylvi is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Mit Tieren leben e.V. in Germany.

A 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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Sylvi, answered.

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