Umgängliche Pinta

Mixed Breed · Female

Pinta, a reserved cuddly mouse, is looking for a family ❤️ She's currently in foster care in 36304 Alsfeld. Initially shy and skittish, Pinta has completely overcome these traits and is thrilled when her foster parents return home, showing it through little sounds and wanting to be petted. Pinta was found with her siblings on the streets of Romania. She gets along very well with other dogs, regardless of gender. At her foster home, she lives in a mixed pack and this works out great. However, she also seeks human companionship, makes puppy-typical play requests, and wants to cuddle and just be there. When meeting strangers, she's initially skeptical and takes time to approach, but it usually only takes a few minutes. Pinta is about 4 months old and is slowly showing her playful side. It's noticeable that she hasn't had much experience yet, but she's curious and orients herself well within the existing pack at the foster home. Indoors, she's calm unless she wants to chew on something. Everyday noises don't bother her. Even if children are a bit louder, it's not a problem for Pinta. She briefly flinches when there are sudden movements, but that's about it. Outdoors, she's sometimes unsure, but cautiously explores the surroundings. She still finds leashes strange and moves carefully, and reacts panicked to pressure from the leash. Leash training needs more work. Being alone is already okay in the pack, but needs practice when alone. Pinta wants a loving, patient family that shows her how beautiful life can be. Children should have dog experience, understanding, and accept retreat spaces. Size: still growing Weight: currently about 10kg Neutered: No (too young) Housebroken: in training Leash trainable: in training Compatible with cats: Yes, if cats are experienced Compatible with other dogs: Yes Location: 36304 Alsfeld •Husband-and-wife teams, single individuals or families with a calm environment and who let her arrive at their own pace •Households with one dog (or several) •People with a garden or rural surroundings Do you want to give Pinta a home?

Zurückhaltende Kuschelmaus Pinta sucht eine Familie ❤️ Auf Pflegestelle in 36304 Alsfeld Pinta ist vor kurzem auf ihrer Pflegestelle angekommen. Anfangs war sie etwas schüchtern und schreckhaft, dies hat sich komplett abgelegt und sie freut sich wenn die Pflegestellen Eltern wieder Zuhause sind, sie zeigt es in Form von kleinen Lauten und sie will dann gestreichelt werden. Pinta wurde mit ihren Geschwistern in Rumänien auf der Straße gefunden. Sie ist mit Artgenossen sehr gut verträglich, egal welches Geschlecht. Auf ihrer Pflegestelle lebt sie in einem gemischten Rudel und dies klappt sehr gut. Sie sucht aber auch die Nähe zu den Menschen, macht welpentypisch Spiel-Aufforderungen und möchte dann ganz viel kuscheln und einfach dabei sein. Bei Fremden ist sie erstmal skeptisch und braucht erstmal Zeit, bis sie kommt, meistens ist dauert es aber nur wenige Minuten. Pinta ist ca 4. Monate jung und zeigt langsam auch ihre verspielte Seite. Man merkt, dass sie noch nicht viel kennengelernt hat, aber sie ist neugierig und orientiert sich gut am vorhanden Rudel der Pflegestelle. Im Haus ist sie ruhig, wenn sie nicht grade an irgendwelchen Sachen knabbern möchte. Alltagsgeräusche machen ihr nichts aus. Auch wenn die Kinder etwas lauter sind, ist das kein Problem für Pinta. Bei hektischen Bewegungen zuckt sie kurz zusammen, aber mehr nicht. Draußen ist sie teilweise noch unsicher, aber erkundet vorsichtig die Umgebung. Die Leine findet sie noch komisch und bewegt sich noch vorsichtig und auf Druck von der Leine reagiert sie panisch. Die Leinenführigkeit muss noch weiter trainiert werden. Das Alleinbleiben klappt schon gut im Rudel, alleine muss noch geübt werden. Pinta wünscht sich eine liebevolle, geduldige Familie, die ihr zeigt, wie schön das Leben sein kann. Kinder sollten hundeerfahren sein, Verständnis mitbringen und Rückzugsorte akzeptieren. Größe: noch im Wachstum Gewicht: aktuell ca. 10kg Kastriert: Nein ( zu jung) Stubenrein: im Training Leinenführig: im Training Verträglich mit Katzen: Ja, wenn Katzen erfahren sind Verträglich mit anderen Hunden: Ja Aufenthaltsort: 36304 Alsfeld •Hundeerfahrene Paare, Einzelpersonen oder Familien mit ruhigem Umfeld und die sie in ihrem Tempo ankommen lassen •Haushalte mit einem Hund (oder mehreren) •Menschen mit einem Garten oder ländlichem Umfeld Du möchtest Pinta ein Zuhause geben? Dann melde dich gerne bei Babsi 🍀 WhatsApp: Pinta wartet vielleicht genau auf dich, wenn du geduldig und liebevoll bist❤️ Selbstauskunftsbogen für Interessenten

About Umgängliche Pinta

What life with Umgängliche Pinta looks like

Umgängliche Pinta is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Free Dogs - Vergessene Tiere in Not e.V. in Großefehn.

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 Umgängliche Pinta, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Umgängliche Pinta?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Free Dogs - Vergessene 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 Umgängliche Pinta on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Umgängliche Pinta if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Free Dogs - Vergessene 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 Umgängliche Pinta 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 Umgängliche Pinta 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 Free Dogs - Vergessene Tiere in Not e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Umgängliche Pinta 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.
