Tipsie

Mixed Breed · Female

Our Tipsie is a super loving, gentle Rotti girl, with a magical being that enchants – calm, peaceful, balanced…….. A dream!! Walking rounds with the pretty female dog really are fun. Not only does she walk beautifully on the leash and follow her basic commands, but she also remains unfazed by aggressive fellow animals or other situations. Only long car rides upset her a bit – maybe it was also the driver, who knows? The nice Tipsie now longs for a forever home with sensitive people, because at her core, she is a “little sensitive one” who loves to snuggle and cuddle. The magic mouse grew up with small children and is therefore a dog for the whole family.

Unsere Tipsie ist ein super liebes, sanftmütiges Rottimädchen, mit einem himmlischen Wesen, das verzaubert – gelassen, ruhig, ausgeglichen…….. Ein Traum!! Mit der hübschen Hündin machen Gassi-Runden richtig Spaß. Nicht nur, dass sie vorbildlich an der Leine läuft und ihre Grundkommandos befolgt, nein, sie lässt sich auch weder durch aggressive Artgenossen, noch andere Situation aus der Ruhe bringen. Nur lange Autofahrten schlagen ihr etwas auf den Magen – vielleicht lag es auch am Fahrer – wer weiß? Die nette Tipsie wünscht sich nun sehnlichst ein Zuhause für immer bei einfühlsamen Menschen, denn im Grunde ist sie ein „kleines Sensibelchen“, das gerne schmust und kuschelt. Die Zaubermaus ist mit kleinen Kindern aufgewachsen und deshalb ein Hund für die ganze Familie.

About Tipsie

What life with Tipsie looks like

Tipsie is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierhilfe Franken e.V. in Lauf.

An 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. 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 Tipsie, answered.

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