Timida

Mixed Breed · Female

Breed: mixed-breed female dog Age: born around 06/2023 Hallo… my name is Timida… which means shy, and that fits, as they say, like a fist to the eye, because at first I was so shy, yes, so to say, full of fear, that I wouldn’t let anyone near me, not even the other dogs, I was even very rude to them… Luckily, I have made great progress since then and now I love to dash and play with the other dogs in the garden… I now respond well to my name and come to the caretakers when they call me, I would be pretty silly if I missed out on the cuddle sessions… Even the volunteers take me on walks, because I have also mastered the leash thing, okay, we still need a bit of practice, but it’s no big deal anymore… Well, and if you look at me like that, you have to admit that I am already a pretty girl with my blonde short haircut, the white accents, and this beautiful eyeliner around my hazel eyes… Figuratively, I can really hold my own and I think we could definitely keep each other active, so that stays the case… I was a stray and, as I behaved at first, it must have been very bad for me in my previous life… but I want to check that off and start anew… For that, I need you/you… I don’t want to experience anything bad in my life again, but to be loved wholeheartedly as part of my own family… I would love to go on adventures with you, meet other dog friends, maybe attend some dog training classes, and fall asleep happily in your arms at the end of the day… What do you think of the idea? Before I move into my new home, I will be neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated. If you would like to adopt me, please contact my fosterers.

Rasse: Mischlingshündin Alter: ca. 06/2023 geboren Hallöchen… mein Name ist Timida… das heisst übersetzt schüchtern und das passt(e) auch, wie man so schön sagt, wie die Faust auf`s Auge, denn anfangs war ich so schüchtern, ja sozusagen voller Angst, dass ich niemanden an mich ran ließ, nicht einmal die anderen Hunde, selbst zu denen war ich sehr unhöflich… Zum Glück habe ich seitdem große Fortschritte gemacht und mittlerweile liiiieeeebe ich es, mit den anderen Hunden durch den Garten zu flitzen und zu spielen… Ich höre jetzt schon prima auf meinen Namen und komme auch zu den Pflegern, wenn sie mich rufen, ich wäre ja auch schön doof, wenn ich mir die Schmuseeinheiten entgehen lassen würde… Sogar die Freiwilligen nehmen mich auf einen Spaziergang mit, denn die Sache mit der Leine habe ich jetzt auch schon drauf, ok ein bisschen üben müssen wir noch, aber das ist kein großes Ding mehr… Tja und wenn Ihr mich so anschaut, müsst Ihr doch zugeben, dass ich schon ein hübsches Mädel bin, mit meinem blonden Kurzhaarschnitt, den weißen Akzenten und diesem wunderschönen Lidstrich um meine bernsteinfarbenen Augen herum… Auch figurlich kann ich mich echt sehen lassen und ich denke, wir könnten uns da sicherlich gemeinsam sportlich betätigen, damit das so bleibt… Ich war ein Streuner und so, wie ich mich anfangs verhalten habe, erging es mir sicher sehr schlecht in meinem vorherigen Leben… aber das will ich jetzt abhaken und gerne neu beginnen… Dafür brauche ich Dich/ Euch… ich möchte nie wieder in meinem Leben Schlechtes erfahren, sondern von ganzem Herzen geliebt werden, als Teil meiner eigenen Familie… So gerne würde ich mit Euch auf Abenteuerreise gehen, Hundefreunde kennenlernen, vielleicht eine Hundeschule besuchen und am Ende des Tages glücklich in Euren Armen einschlafen… Was haltet Ihr von der Idee? Bevor ich in mein neues Zuhause reise, werde ich noch kastriert, gechipt und geimpft. Wer mich adoptieren möchte, wende sich bitte an meine Vermittler . Hündinnen Weitere Informationen

About Timida

What life with Timida looks like

Timida is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Traurige Hundeherzen e.V. in Hamburg.

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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Timida, answered.

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