Terra

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 7 years

friendly, people-oriented, curious, not compatible with all dogs Terra came to us in October as part of our large spay/neuter campaign. During the procedure, a large glandular tumor was discovered, which unfortunately could not be completely removed. Two further operations followed. The subsequent biopsy brought the sad certainty: it was a malignant tumor. Due to her diagnosis, we could not return Terra to the streets. So she was given a place of refuge with us. Finding a home for dogs with such a history is often very difficult. Terra is a very people-oriented female dog who enjoys the closeness and attention of her trusted people. With other dogs, it depends on the sympathy: she is compatible with some, but prefers distance with others. Terra is estimated to be about 8 years old. Her ears were cropped. A sad fate that unfortunately still happens too often. Despite everything, Terra cannot be robbed of her joie de vivre. Currently, she is fit and enjoys her time in the large run. She runs, romps, and sniffs with great enthusiasm as if nothing had ever happened. For Terra, we wish for a quiet single place with a securely fenced garden, where she can spend her twilight years in security and with much love. She has endured so much and deserves to finally find a home. All are vaccinated, microchipped, and have an EU passport. They are checked for Mediterranean diseases age-appropriately. For more information, see the info on our homepage. Every dog that is placed makes room for another dog who is hungry and emaciated, struggling to survive.

freundlich, menschenbezogen, neugierig, nicht mit allen Hunden verträglich Terra kam im Oktober im Rahmen unserer großen Kastrationsaktion zu uns. Während der Operation wurde ein großer Gesäugetumor festgestellt, der leider nicht vollständig entfernt werden konnte. Es folgten zwei weitere Operationen. Die anschließende Biopsie brachte die traurige Gewissheit: Es handelt sich um einen bösartigen Tumor. Aufgrund ihrer Diagnose konnten wir Terra nicht wieder auf die Straße zurücksetzen. So durfte sie bei uns auf einen Gnadenplatz ziehen. Für Hunde mit einer solchen Vorgeschichte ein Zuhause zu finden, ist leider oft sehr schwierig. Terra ist eine sehr menschenbezogene Hündin, die die Nähe und Aufmerksamkeit ihrer Bezugspersonen genießt. Mit anderen Hunden entscheidet die Sympathie: Mit manchen ist sie gut verträglich, bei anderen bevorzugt sie Abstand. Terra wird auf etwa 8 Jahre geschätzt. Ihre Ohren wurden ihr abgeschnitten. Ein trauriges Schicksal, das man leider noch immer viel zu häufig sieht. Trotz allem lässt sich Terra ihre Lebensfreude nicht nehmen. Momentan ist sie fit und genießt ihre Zeit im großen Freilauf. Dort läuft, rennt und schnuppert sie voller Begeisterung, als wäre nie etwas gewesen. Für Terra wünschen wir uns einen ruhigen Einzelplatz mit einem sicher eingezäunten Garten, in dem sie ihren Lebensabend in Geborgenheit und mit viel Liebe verbringen darf. Sie hat so viel durchgemacht und verdient es, endlich anzukommen. sind alle geimpft, gechipt und haben einen EU-Ausweis. Sie werden altersentsprechend auf Mittelmeerkrankheiten gecheckt. Siehe dazu Info auf unserer Homepage. Jeder vermittelte Hunde macht Platz für einen jener Hunde, die hungernd und ausgemergelt ihr Dasein fristen müssen. AUFENTHALTSORT

About Terra

What life with Terra looks like

Terra is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at A.C.E. Animal Compassion Europe - Tiere in Not e.V. in Greece.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇬🇷Adopting from Greece

Greek shelters often partner with Northern European rescue groups for placements. Animals are sterilized, vaccinated, and chipped before adoption. Fees vary widely depending on whether the shelter is municipal or NGO-run.

Frequently asked

Adopting Terra, answered.

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