How do I contact the shelter about Abby?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Ein Freund fürs Leben e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Abby on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Abby if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Ein Freund fürs Leben 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 Abby 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 Abby 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 Ein Freund fürs Leben e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Abby 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.

Abby

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy · 8 months

♀, born ca. Oct. 2025, puppy-type - curious - friendly—Abby, born in October 2025, is a small mixed-breed female dog and is expected to grow to medium size. Abby waits full of hope for her big chance: a loving home where she can learn about security, safety, and real family life. At the intake shelter, she is gently prepared for her new life. Abby is lively, curious, and playful—a typical puppy that still needs to learn the dog 1x1. House training, leash manners, and being left alone are still new to her and require time, patience, and loving guidance. Like every young puppy, she occasionally causes small “decoration projects” at home, but with patience and humor, she will grow into a wonderful companion. Abby especially enjoys the closeness to humans: with affection and snuggle sessions, she really blossoms. For Abby, we wish for a quieter home, preferably rural or in a relaxed environment without much hustle and bustle, so she can settle in at her own pace and build trust. Abby is vaccinated and microchipped and is waiting to be rehomed with much love and patience. Abby is in a foster home in 14197 Berlin. The adoption fee is 460 Euro—a small price for the great chance at a life full of love and security! Do you want to offer Abby a suitable home?

♀, geb. ca. 10/2025welpentypisch - neugierig - freundlichin 14197 Berlin Abby, geboren im Oktober 2025, ist eine Mischlingshündin mit einer derzeitigen Schulterhöhe von ca. 50 cm. Abby wartet voller Hoffnung auf ihre große Chance: ein liebevolles Zuhause, in dem sie Geborgenheit, Sicherheit und echtes Familienleben kennenlernen darf. In der Auffangstation wird sie behutsam auf ihr neues Leben vorbereitet. Abby ist fröhlich, neugierig und verspielt – ein typisches Hundekind, das das Hunde-1x1 noch lernen muss. Stubenreinheit, Leinenführigkeit und Alleinbleiben sind für sie noch neu und brauchen Zeit, Ruhe und liebevolle Anleitung. Wie jeder junge Hund sorgt sie gelegentlich für kleine „Umdekorationsaktionen“ im Zuhause, doch mit Geduld und Humor wächst sie zu einer wunderbaren Begleiterin heran. Besonders genießt Abby die Nähe zum Menschen: Bei Zuwendung und Kuscheleinheiten blüht sie richtig auf. Für Abby wünschen wir uns ein eher ruhiges Zuhause, am liebsten ländlich oder in einer entspannten Umgebung, ohne viel Trubel, damit sie in ihrem Tempo ankommen und Vertrauen aufbauen kann. In der Stadt ist sie etwas überfordert. Ein Haus mit Garten auf dem Land wäre toll. Abby wird geimpft und gechipt vermittelt und wartet darauf, mit viel Liebe und Geduld ihren Platz in einer Familie einzunehmen. Abby befindet sich auf einer Pflegestelle in 14197 Berlin. Die Schutzgebühr beträgt 460 Euro – ein kleiner Preis für die große Chance auf ein Leben voller Liebe und Geborgenheit! Sie möchten Abby ein passendes Zuhause bieten?

About Abby

What life with Abby looks like

Abby is a large puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Ein Freund fürs Leben e.V. in Berlin.

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.
