Ada

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 2 years

Ada feels uncomfortable in the animal shelter. Ada was abandoned and lived on the streets in Gepiu, Romania, with a black male herding dog. A family took care of the two friendly dogs, feeding them and taking them to the Sisterea animal shelter for neutering. They were allowed to stay there so they wouldn't have to continue living on the streets and be at risk. Ada has a pleasant, balanced, and calm nature. She is friendly, uncomplicated, and very much wants a home of her own. Among the many dogs in the shelter, she doesn't feel comfortable. She is looking for a quiet spot, preferably with an existing dog. She is unobtrusive and still a bit reserved. The modest and brave Ada will submit and adapt quickly to her new home. She gets along well with the other dogs in the kennel and already walks reasonably on a leash. The pretty Ada was born in April 2024, is 38 cm tall, and has been in the shelter since October 2026. She is neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated. Before departure, she will receive a blood rapid test. She is ready to travel and could travel with the next ITV Grenzenlos transport. Ada will arrive in Germany on November 21 at a foster home in Verden. Please call or send us the contact form if you want to help Ada.

Ada fühlt sich im Tierheim nicht wohl Ada wurde ausgesetzt und lebte auf der Straße in Gepiu (Rumänien) zusammen mit einem schwarzen Hütehundrüden. Eine Familie hat sich um die beiden freundlichen Hunde gekümmert, hat sie gefüttert und zum Kastrieren ins Tierheim von Sisterea gebracht. Dort durften sie bleiben, damit sie nicht weiter auf der Straße leben müssen und gefährdet sind. Ada hat eine angenehme, ausgeglichene und ruhige Art. Sie ist freundlich, unkompliziert und wünscht sich sehr ein eigenes Zuhause. Unter den vielen Hunden im Tierheim fühlt sie sich nicht wohl. Sie sucht ein ruhiges Plätzchen, gern wieder mit einem bereits vorhandenen Hund. Sie ist unaufdringlich und noch etwas zurückhaltend. Die bescheidene und brave Ada wird sich unterordnen und an das neue Zuhause schnell anpassen. Sie versteht sich gut mit den anderen Hunden im Zwinger und geht bereits vernünftig an der Leine. Die hübsche Ada ist im April 2024 geboren, 38 cm groß und seit Oktober 2026 im Tierheim. Sie ist kastriert, gechipt und geimpft. Vor der Ausreise bekommt sie noch einen Blutschnelltest. Sie ist reisefertig und könnte mit dem nächsten Transport des ITV Grenzenlos ausreisen. Ada kommt am 21. 11. nach Deutschland in eine Pflegestelle in Verden.

About Ada

What life with Ada looks like

Ada is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at ITV Grenzenlos e.V. in Essel.

A young 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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Ada, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Ada?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. ITV Grenzenlos e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Ada on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Ada if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — ITV Grenzenlos 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Ada 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 Ada 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 ITV Grenzenlos e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Ada 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.
