Alba

Mixed Breed · Female

Our animal welfare workers report: Alba is a young female dog ❤️ – with a story that deeply moved us. She was found injured after a car accident and brought to the killing shelter in Târgoviște. A place where many dogs do not get a second chance. But Alba had double luck – the accident left no physical scars, and by the end of April, she was allowed to leave that place. She has since lived in a private shelter in Galati, where she experiences kindness and security for the first time. What she experienced has left its mark. Alba is not a female dog who rushes joyfully to greet every person. She is cautious, observing first, needing a moment. But precisely in this lies something very special, for when she realizes she is safe… when she can trust… she begins to beam. Then she shows her gentle and loving side. A female dog who quietly slips into your heart – and stays there forever. Her dark, soulful eyes look at you; one must simply melt and be deeply touched. She has something incredibly lovable because she appears delicate and sensitive; one can see directly whether she is tense or relaxed. Her cream-colored, fluffy fur, combined with these eyes and her hand-sized frame, make her an extremely appealing presence. For Alba, we are looking for people with patience and a heart. People who understand that trust must grow. Who give her time to settle in – and who find joy in seeing her bloom a little more each day. Who gives this special soul the chance at a new life – at security, safety, and love? Alba waits 🐾 perhaps for you? Please note:

Beschreibung Unsere Tierschützer berichten: Alba ist eine junge Hündin ❤️ – mit einer Geschichte, die sehr berührt. Sie wurde verletzt nach einem Autounfall gefunden und in die Tötungsstation Târgoviște gebracht. Ein Ort, an dem viele Hunde keine zweite Chance bekommen. Doch Alba hatte doppeltes Glück – der Unfall hat keine körperlichen Spuren hinterlassen und Ende April durfte sie diesen Ort verlassen. Sie lebt seitdem in einem privaten Shelter in Galati, wo sie die erste Freundlichkeit und Geborgenheit erleben darf. Was sie erlebt hat, hat Spuren hinterlassen. Alba ist keine Hündin, die sofort voller Freude auf jeden Menschen zustürmt. Sie ist vorsichtig, beobachtet erst, braucht einen Moment. Aber genau darin liegt etwas ganz Besonderes, denn wenn sie merkt, dass sie sicher ist… wenn sie Vertrauen fassen darf… dann beginnt sie zu strahlen. Dann zeigt sie ihre sanfte und liebevolle Seite. Eine Hündin, die sich leise in dein Herz schleicht – und dort für immer bleibt. Ihre dunklen, seelenvollen Augen schauen dich an; man muss einfach dahin schmelzen und ist sofort tief berührt. Sie hat etwas unglaublich Liebenswertes, weil sie zart und sensitiv wirkt, man sieht direkt, ob sie angespannt oder entspannt ist. Ihr cremefarbenes, wuscheliges Fell zusammen mit diesen Augen und die handliche Größe machen sie zu einer äußerst anziehenden Erscheinung. Für Alba suchen wir Menschen mit Geduld und Herz. Menschen, die verstehen, dass Vertrauen wachsen darf. Die ihr Zeit geben, anzukommen – und die Freude darin finden, zu sehen, wie sie jeden Tag ein kleines Stück mehr aufblüht.Wer gibt dieser besonderen Seele die Chance auf ein neues Leben – auf Geborgenheit, Sicherheit und Liebe?Alba wartet 🐾 vielleicht auf dich?

About Alba

What life with Alba looks like

Alba is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierischgeholfen 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Alba, answered.

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