Chihuahua Alegria – ein kleines Herz sucht sein großes Glück! Die zauberhafte Chihuahua-Hündin Alegria durfte vor Kurzem das spanische Tierheim gegen eine liebevolle Pflegestelle tauschen. Sie ist ein unglaublich liebes, ruhiges und menschenbezogenes Hundemädchen, das mit seiner sanften, unaufdringlichen Art sofort die Herzen berührt. Sie ist bereits stubenrein, läuft gut an der Leine und muss natürlich noch einiges kennenlernen. Mit ihrer Freundin Triana verbindet sie eine ganz besondere Freundschaft. Alegria ist für Triana eine wichtige Stütze, weshalb wir uns auch eine gemeinsame

About Alegria

What life with Alegria looks like

Alegria is a large senior chihuahua dog waiting at SALVA Hundehilfe e.V. in Germany.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇩🇪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 Alegria, answered.

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