How do I contact the shelter about ala?

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

Can I adopt ala if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Krefeld 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 ala 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 ala 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 Krefeld early rather than rehoming privately; they know ala 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.

Adopt ala

English Bulldog · Female · Adult · 4 years

Nala – lively American Bulldog female dog looking for her heart's home Our three-year-old American Bulldog female dog Nala is a real bundle of energy: playful, lively, and always ready for new adventures. She loves people above all else and meets them with her open, friendly nature. She is also generally open to other dogs – although she has not been extensively tested with them yet at our shelter. Nala is very typical of her breed: strong, attentive, clever, and full of initiative. However, she still lacks some training. She particularly needs work on her leash behavior, as she sometimes has her own mind. With loving consistency and positive guidance, she will surely make progress – she wants to please and works motivated. Important to know: Arthrotic changes in the knees were detected in Nala. Therefore, she receives pain medication that helps her feel comfortable and cope well in everyday life. For Nala, we wish for people who enjoy continuing her training, give her security, and challenge her mentally and physically. She has a huge heart and will be a loyal, cheerful, and loving companion to her future person.

Nala – lebensfrohe American-Bulldog-Hündin auf der Suche nach ihrem Herzensplatz Unsere drei Jahre alte American-Bulldog-Hündin Nala ist ein echtes Energiebündel: verspielt, quirlig und immer bereit für neue Abenteuer. Sie liebt Menschen über alles und begegnet ihnen mit ihrer offenen, freundlichen Art. Auch anderen Hunden gegenüber zeigt sie sich grundsätzlich aufgeschlossen – ausführlich getestet wurde sie bei uns bisher allerdings noch nicht. Nala ist ganz rassetypisch: kräftig, aufmerksam, clever und voller Tatendrang. Allerdings fehlt es ihr noch an etwas Erziehung. Besonders an der Leinenführung muss noch gearbeitet werden, denn hier hat sie manchmal ihren eigenen Kopf. Mit liebevoller Konsequenz und positiver Anleitung wird sie aber sicher schnell Fortschritte machen – sie möchte gefallen und arbeitet motiviert mit. Wichtig zu wissen:Bei Nala wurden arthrotische Veränderungen in den Knien festgestellt. Daher bekommt sie dauerhaft Schmerzmittel, die ihr helfen, sich wohlzufühlen und gut im Alltag zurechtzukommen. Für Nala wünschen wir uns Menschen, die Freude daran haben, mit ihr weiter zu üben, ihr Sicherheit geben und sie mental wie auch körperlich auslasten. Sie hat ein riesiges Herz und wird ihren zukünftigen Menschen eine treue, fröhliche und liebevolle Begleiterin sein.

About ala

What life with ala looks like

ala is a adult english bulldog dog waiting at Tierheim Krefeld in Krefeld.

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.
