How do I contact the shelter about Adele?

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

Can I adopt Adele if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Step by Paw 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 Adele 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 Adele 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 Step by Paw e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Adele 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.

Adele

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 4 years

Zarte Hundeseele seeks a compassionate home (born 06/2021, currently still in Romania) Adèle is an approximately 4-year-old female dog in a small medium size with a shoulder height of around 38 cm. She has lived in the animal shelter since puppyhood – her world has been very limited so far, which is why she will need time to adjust to a new environment and learn everything. At first, Adèle is a bit shy and cautious, but if met with patience, she warms up quickly. Then she becomes social, clingy, and enjoys affection and cuddles very much. Adèle gets along well with other dogs – a calm, confident fellow animal by her side would be ideal and could give her security. Whether she is compatible with cats can be tested upon request. Health: Adèle is vaccinated, microchipped, and dewormed. Before travel arrangements, she will be examined by a veterinarian. A Mediterranean test will be conducted. We are looking for a loving home for Adèle with patient people with hearts who will give her the time she needs to build trust and settle in at her own pace. Who wants to show Adèle how wonderful a dog life can be?

....... zarte Hundeseele sucht einfühlsames Zuhause (geb. 06/2021, derzeit noch in Rumänien) Adèle ist eine etwa 4 Jahre alte Hündin im kleinen Medium-Format mit einer Schulterhöhe von ca. 38 cm. Sie lebt seit Welpenalter im Tierheim – ihre Welt war bisher sehr begrenzt, weshalb sie Zeit brauchen wird, um sich in einem neuen Umfeld einzuleben und alles kennenzulernen. Anfangs ist Adèle etwas schüchtern und vorsichtig, doch wenn man ihr mit Geduld begegnet, taut sie schnell auf. Dann zeigt sie sich sozial, anhänglich und genießt Zuwendung und Streicheleinheiten sehr. Mit anderen Hunden versteht sich Adèle gut – ein ruhiger, souveräner Artgenosse an ihrer Seite wäre ideal und könnte ihr Sicherheit geben. Ob sie mit Katzen verträglich ist, kann auf Wunsch getestet werden. Gesundheit: Adèle ist geimpft, gechippt und entwurmt. Vor der Ausreise wird sie tierärztlich untersucht. Ein Mittelmeertest wird durchgeführt werden. Wir suchen für Adèle ein liebevolles Zuhause bei geduldigen Menschen mit Herz, die ihr die Zeit geben, die sie braucht, um Vertrauen zu fassen und in ihrem eigenen Tempo anzukommen. Wer möchte Adèle zeigen, wie schön ein Hundeleben sein kann?

About Adele

What life with Adele looks like

Adele is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Step by Paw e.V. in Germany.

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.
