How do I contact the shelter about TerryRasse?

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

Can I adopt TerryRasse if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Elpida & Esperanza, Hoffnung für Straßenhunde 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 TerryRasse 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 TerryRasse 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 Elpida & Esperanza, Hoffnung für Straßenhunde e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know TerryRasse 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.

TerryRasse

Mixed Breed · Female

Terry. Mix breed. Female. Birthdate: 09/2024. Birth country: Greece. Size: Large (approx. 52cm) Our handsome Terry originally lived on a farm until his owners simply set him free. No longer wanted and left to his fate, he suddenly had to fend for himself. Fortunately, our animal rights activist took him in and brought him to safety. Since then Terry has been living in the animal shelter and shows every day what a wonderful dog is in him. Terry is very friendly, loving and people-oriented. He enjoys every caress and especially enjoys the closeness of his person. He is rather a quiet and pleasant male who is happy about every address and just wants to belong. Terry also shows himself to be social and friendly with his fellow dogs. He wants to please his humans, learn new things and discover the beautiful sides of life together with them. For Terry we wish a loving forever home where he can finally arrive and never again experience suddenly losing everything. People who give him security, give him time and attention and show him that he is a full-fledged family member.

Name: Terry. Rasse: Mischling. Geschlecht: HündinGeburtsdatum: 09/2024Geburtsland: GriechenlandGröße: Groß (ca. 52cm) Unser hübscher Terry lebte ursprünglich auf einem Bauernhof, bis seine Besitzer ihn einfach auf die Straße setzten. Nicht mehr gewollt und seinem Schicksal überlassen, musste er plötzlich alleine zurechtkommen. Zum Glück nahm sich unsere Tierschützerin seiner an und brachte ihn in Sicherheit. Seitdem lebt Terry im Tierasyl und zeigt dort jeden Tag, was für ein wundervoller Hund in ihm steckt. Terry ist sehr freundlich, liebevoll und menschenbezogen. Er freut sich über jede Streicheleinheit und genießt die Nähe seiner Bezugsperson ganz besonders. Dabei ist er eher ein ruhiger und angenehmer Rüde, der sich über jede Ansprache freut und einfach nur dazugehören möchte. Auch mit seinen Artgenossen zeigt sich Terry sozial und freundlich. Er möchte seinen Menschen gefallen, Neues lernen und gemeinsam mit ihnen die schönen Seiten des Lebens entdecken. Für Terry wünschen wir uns ein liebevolles Für-immer-Zuhause, in dem er endlich ankommen darf und nie wieder erleben muss, plötzlich alles zu verlieren. Menschen, die ihm Sicherheit geben, ihm Zeit und Aufmerksamkeit schenken und ihm zeigen, dass er ein vollwertiges Familienmitglied ist.

About TerryRasse

What life with TerryRasse looks like

TerryRasse is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Elpida & Esperanza, Hoffnung für Straßenhunde e.V. in Heppenheim.

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 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.
