How do I contact the shelter about Thalia?

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

Can I adopt Thalia if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Step by Paw 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 Thalia 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 Thalia 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 Step by Paw e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Thalia 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.

Thalia

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 5 years

Thalia Breed: Mix Gender: female Born around January 2021 Shoulder height: around 50 cm Compatible with dogs: yes Compatible with children: not known Compatible with cats: not known Captured in horrific conditions, Thalia had to raise her two puppies: scarce water or food, little protection from heat or cold in a small, fenced-off piece of no-man's-land. Luckily, someone noticed the three of them, and the Animal Shelter was able to save all three. By now, all three have recovered from the hardships, and thus Thalia is ready for her happiness. Like her offspring, Thalia is initially a bit suspicious, but with a little patience and lots of cuddles, her trust can be won. Cuddles are the best for her. Actually, all she wants is to be cuddled, kissed, and loved. As she went through such a tough time with her children, she has a strong protective instinct. Whether she has ever lived in a family, we do not know. Therefore, we must assume that she does not know what life with humans is like and has a lot to learn. Would you like to give the enchanting mouse a home? Are you ready to work with Thalia so she can lead a happy life by your side? Excellent! Come over to our homepage right away and get in touch with us! We will then get in touch with you.

Thalia Rasse: Mix Geschlecht: weiblich Geboren ca. Januar 2021 Schulterhöhe: ca. 50 cm Verträglich mit Hunden: ja Verträglich mit Kindern: nicht bekannt Verträglich mit Katzen: nicht bekannt Gefangen in grässlichen Bedingungen musste Thalia ihre beiden Welpen großziehen: kaum Wasser oder Futter, kaum Schutz vor Hitze oder Kälte in einem kleinen, eingezäunten Stück Niemandsland. Zum Glück wurde jemand auf die drei aufmerksam, und die Animaleas konnten alle drei retten. Im Refugio haben sich alle drei inzwischen von den Strapazen erholt, und somit ist auch Thalia bereit für ihr Glück. Wie ihr Nachwuchs ist auch Thalia anfangs etwas misstrauisch, doch mit ein wenig Geduld und vielen Streicheleinheiten kann man ihr Vertrauen gewinnen. Streicheleinheiten sind für sie das Beste. Das Allerbeste! Geknuddelt, geküsst und lieb gehabt zu werden, ist eigentlich alles, was sie sich wünscht. Da sie mit ihren Kindern durch solch eine schwere Zeit gehen musste, hat sie einen starken Beschützerinstinkt. Ob sie schon einmal in einer Familie gelebt hat, wissen wir nicht. Deshalb müssen wir davon ausgehen, dass sie das Leben an der Seite von Menschen nicht kennt und viel lernen muss. Du möchtest der Zaubermaus ein Zuhause schenken? Du bist bereit, mit Thalia zu arbeiten, sodass sie ein glückliches Leben an Deiner Seite führen kann? Hervorragend! Schau gleich auf unserer Homepage vorbei und nimm unter mit uns Kontakt auf! Wir setzen uns dann mit Dir in Verbindung.

About Thalia

What life with Thalia looks like

Thalia is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Step by Paw e.V. in Germany.

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.
