Wilma

Yorkshire Terrier · Female

Yorkshire Terrier Hündin Wilma ist am 28.04.24 geboren und musste aufgrund von Zeitmangel am 06.08.26 im Tierheim abgegeben werden. Wilma lebte mit Frauchen und deren 7jähriger Tochter zusammen.Bei Fremden ist sie noch etwas skeptisch und braucht ein wenig um Vertrauen aufzubauen.Bei vertrauten Personen zeigt sie sich total anhänglich, kuschelt und spielt auch gerne. Mit anderen Hunden würde sie sich nicht so gut verstehen, was eher an fehlender Sozialisierung liegt. Sie ist da noch etwas unsicher. Katzen kennt sie nicht und hat eher Angst vor ihnen, reagiert unsicher. Wilma ist noch jung und lernt auch relativ schnell.

About Wilma

What life with Wilma looks like

Wilma is a adult yorkshire terrier dog waiting at Tierheim Paderborn in Paderborn.

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 Wilma, answered.

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