Uschi

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Puppy · 4 months

Uschi came into our care from a temporary holding by authorities. Uschi is an exception among Cane Corso. Despite taking in one of her puppies, all staff could handle her without issue, and she never displayed any protective or watchful instincts. She greets everyone with friendliness and remains balanced around other animals. Of course, she’s not indifferent; if she feels unacknowledged by humans, she shows it. She misses company and seeks a genuine family connection. Uschi can still learn what it means to be on a loose leash. And to truly enjoy life after the past few weeks, she deserves to have fun. At the beginning, however, proximity is important, something she currently lacks. Except for small Molosser cubs that grow if you miss the mark, Uschi means…SUPER…she is an absolutely fine character. If you need to correct her at that moment, you can understand what it means to rescue stranded whales back into the water. At least a little, a few grams can still be tolerated by Uschi. Uschi would feel comfortable in a house with a garden, but she is also suitable for apartment living, which should ideally be on lower floors. Alone, Uschi remains after adjustment, taking the car well. Children are possible, but should be firm and older. If someone might offer Uschi a dream home, she has had a tough and exhausting time and deserves to finally rest and settle in—with a healthy dose of pampering, of course.

Uschi ist die Übernahme aus einer Sicherstellung der Behörden. Uschi ist eine Ausnahme Cane Corso. Trotz Einzug mit einem Ihrer Welpen bei uns konnten ausnahmslos alle Mitarbeiter direkten Umgang mit ihr pflegen, zu keiner Zeit legte sie ausgeprägten Beschützer oder Wachinstinkt an den Tag. Sie begegnet allen Menschen freundlich, bleibt auch bei Artgenossen ausgeglichen. Natürlich ist sie nicht sprachlos, sieht sie Menschen und fühlt sich nicht beachtet, tut sie das kund. Sie vermisst die Gesellschaft und sucht echten Familienanschluss. Uschi darf durchaus noch lernen, was eine lockere Leine bedeutet. Und so richtig Spass, die sie die letzten Wochen vergessen und das Leben endlich genießen lassen. Zu Beginn ist aber die Nähe wichtig, die ihr im Moment fehlt. Bis auf kleine Molosserhörnchen, die wachsen, wenn man selbst die Kurve verfehlt und Uschi meint…SUPER…da sollte es langgehen , ist sie ein absolut feiner Charakter . Will man in dem Moment die Richtung korrigieren, kann man nachfühlen, was es bedeutet, gestrandete Wale wieder ins Wasser zu bugsieren. Zumindest ein wenig, ein paar Gramm kann Uschi durchaus noch vertragen. Uschi würde sich in einem Haus mit Garten wohl fühlen, reine Wohnungshaltung ist auch möglich, diese sollte allerdings eher in unteren Etagen liegen. Allein bleibt Uschi nach Eingewöhnung im angemessenen Rahmen, Autofahrten nimmt sie gelassen hin. Kinder sind möglich, dürften aber schon standhaft und größer sein. Wer mag Uschi ein Traumzuhause bieten, sie hat eine schwere und anstrengende Zeit hinter sich und hat es verdient, endlich zur Ruhe zu kommen und anzukommen- mit einer gesunden Portion Verwöhnprogramm, versteht sich..?

About Uschi

What life with Uschi looks like

Uschi is a small puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Schkortitz in Grimma.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇩🇪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 Uschi, answered.

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