Albina

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Young · 1 year

A gentle soul full of longing – who will patiently take ALBINA by the hand? 🍀 ALBINA – Tender Ice Princess with gentleness in her gaze: Enchanting young female dog seeks her loving home The beautiful ALBINA has been waiting in the municipal animal shelter since July 2026 for her big chance. At about 10 months old (born on 17.11.2025), the dear young dog is at the perfect age to leave behind the dull kennel and blossom by her humans' side. Visually, ALBINA is a real treat: Her radiant, snow-white short coat, the delicate pink nose, and her gentle, expressive eyes give her a noble appearance. With her long legs and a weight of about 17–20 kg, she has an elegant, slender, medium-sized stature (shoulder height about 50–55 cm). Characteristically, ALBINA is a sensitive heartbreaker. She enjoys petting very much and clings gratefully to gentle hands. The young dog currently reacts a bit shy and cautious in new situations. The leash also still causes her discomfort – here she needs empathetic people who gradually build up leash training with her with a lot of patience, calmness, and positive reinforcement. With her fellow dogs, ALBINA shows herself to be consistently friendly, social, and uncomplicated in the animal shelter. A confident first dog in the new home would be a great support for her to gain confidence even faster. ALBINA travels to her new home vaccinated, chipped, and with an EU pet passport after a positive preliminary check. Very friendly, enjoys petting, a bit shy ✓ A home with a garden ✓ Experienced dog people ✓ Gladly to another dog ✓ Wants to live in the countryside - No small children in the household - No urban environment ALBINA has been living with her brothers in the municipal animal shelter since July 2026. We do not know anything about her background. Help Albina find a home - share this with your friends ❤️

Ein sanftes Wesen voller Sehnsucht – wer nimmt ALBINA geduldig an die Hand? 🍀 ALBINA – Zartes Eisprinzesschen mit Sanftmut im Blick: Bezaubernde Junghündin sucht ihr liebevolles Zuhause Die wunderschöne ALBINA wartet seit Juli 2026 im städtischen Tierheim auf ihre große Chance. Mit ihren etwa 10 Monaten (geboren am 17.11.2025) ist die liebe Junghündin im perfekten Alter, um den tristen Zwinger hinter sich zu lassen und an der Seite ihrer Menschen aufzublühen. Optisch ist ALBINA eine echte Augenweide: Ihr strahlendes, schneeweißes Kurzhaarfell, die zartrosa Nase und ihre sanften, ausdrucksstarken Augen verleihen ihr ein edles Erscheinungsbild. Mit ihren langen Beinen und einem Gewicht von ca. 17–20 kg bringt sie eine elegant-schlanke, mittelgroße Statur mit (Schulterhöhe ca. 50–55 cm). Charakterlich zeigt sich ALBINA als feinfühlige Herzensbrecherin. Sie genießt Streicheleinheiten sehr und schmiegt sich dankbar an sanfte Hände an. In neuen Situationen reagiert die junge Hündin aktuell noch ein wenig schüchtern und vorsichtig. Auch das Thema Leine bereitet ihr noch Unbehagen – hier braucht sie einfühlsame Menschen, die das Leinentraining mit viel Geduld, Ruhe und positiver Verstärkung schrittweise mit ihr aufbauen. Mit ihren Artgenossen zeigt sich ALBINA im Tierheim durchweg freundlich, sozial und unkompliziert. Ein souveräner Ersthund im neuen Zuhause wäre eine tolle Stütze für sie, um noch schneller Selbstvertrauen zu fassen. ALBINA reist nach positiver Vorkontrolle geimpft, gechippt und mit EU-Heimtierausweis in ihr neues Zuhause. Sehr freundlich, genießt Streicheleinheiten, etwas schüchtern ✓ Ein Zuhause mit Garten ✓ Erfahrene Hundemenschen ✓ Gerne zu einem weiteren Hund ✓ Möchte ländlich leben - Keine kleinen Kinder im Haushalt - Kein städtisches Umfeld ALBINA lebt seit Juli 2026 zusammen mit ihren Brüdern im städtischen Tierheim. Über die Vorgeschichte ist uns nichts bekannt. Hilf Albina, ein Zuhause zu finden - teile dies mit deinen Freunden ❤️

About Albina

What life with Albina looks like

Albina is a large young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Hundsrücker Tierschutz gUG in Germany.

A young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 Albina, answered.

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