adoption requirements adoption process Now request this animal! adoption requirements adoption process Alf has found a new home! His story: Due to private, understandable, and verifiable reasons, Alf is now named Ollie and is once again searching for his forever home. When he came from Romania, there were no major initial issues. The little guy loved his mom from the first moment and responded to her. To this day, he is a bit reserved and cautious with men until he likes their proximity. Alf loves to snuggle and is affectionate, loving contact with adults, even with children, if they are not too hectic. He approaches people openly and has no fear of touch. When walking, he wants to assert himself, depending on how the other dog is, but he reacts positively to human correction. He loves car rides and playing with his self-chosen dog friends. He ignores cats, but at home, he doesn't know any cats. Unfamiliar new sounds unsettle him briefly, but he calms down quickly. We wish Alf, Ollie, a new home as a family dog, perhaps better as a single prince, so he gets the attention he loves and needs. A backyard would be nice, but it doesn't have to be. Alf will be neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, treated for fleas, and dewormed into his new home. He brings his own EU pet passport and can be adopted after a positive "Where are the people, for the little guy?" From Dubslav at our shelter! You named Alf! Date: 15.08.

Vermittlungsvoraussetzungen Vermittlungsablauf Jetzt dieses Tier anfragen! Vermittlungsvoraussetzungen Vermittlungsablauf Alf hat ein neues Zuhause gefunden! Seine Geschichte: Wegen privaten, verständlichen und nachvollziehbaren Gründen ist Alf jetzt Ollie genannt wieder auf der Suche nach seinem Zuhause für immer. Als er aus Rumänien kam, gab es keine großen Anfangsprobleme. Der kleine Mann liebte seine Mama von der ersten Minute und reagierte auf sie. Bei Männern ist er bis heute etwas zurückhaltend und vorsichtig, bis ihm ihre Nähe gefällt. Alf kuschelt so gerne und ist liebebedürftig, liebt den Kontakt mit Erwachsenen, auch zu Kindern, wenn sie nicht zu hektisch sind. Er geht offen auf Menschen zu und hat keine Berührungsängste. Beim Gassigehen möchte er sich, je nachdem, wie der andere Hund geartet ist, Respekt verschaffen. Hierbei reagiert er allerdings direkt positiv auf menschliche Korrektur. Er liebt Autofahren und das Spielen mit seinen selbstgesuchten Hundefreunden. Er ignoriert Katzen, weicht ihnen aus, zuhause kennt er allerdings keine Katze. Ungewohnte für ihn neue Geräusche verunsichern ihn kurz, er lässt sich hier allerdings schnell beruhigen. Wir wünschen Alf, Ollie genannt, ein neues Zuhause als Familienhund, vielleicht besser als Einzelprinz, damit er dir Aufmerksamkeit bekommt, die er so liebt und braucht. Ein Garten wäre schön, muss aber nicht sein. Alf zieht kastriert, gechipt, geimpft, entfloht und entwurmt in sein neues Zuhause. Er bringt seinen eigenen EU Heimtierausweis mit und kann nach positiver Vorkontrolle gegen eine Schutzgebühr von 500 Euro umziehen. Wo sind die Menschen, für den kleinen Kerl? Vielen Dank Dubslav von S.! Du hast Alf seinen Namen geschenkt! Stand: 15.08.2024

About Alf

What life with Alf looks like

Alf is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Ein Herz für Streuner e.V. in München.

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 Alf, answered.

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