How do I contact the shelter about Alfia?

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 Alfia on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Alfia 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 Alfia 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 Alfia 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 Alfia 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.

Alfia

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy · 9 months

Alfia is a 9-month-old female dog, approximately 55 cm tall, who has had little experience with humans and is therefore very shy and reserved. She has not been handled yet due to her negative experiences with people. She backs away when approached by humans. Alfia is the sister of Beethoven and Midnight. We are looking for experienced people who know how to help an anxious puppy regain trust in humans. Alfia has not had the opportunity to live in a household and therefore needs to learn the basics of dog behavior. An enclosed garden would be ideal for Alfia, allowing her to adjust to her new life at her own pace and build trust. Alfia is a young dog who needs clear structures, patience, and training to feel secure and develop trust. Support from a positive dog school would be very beneficial. This beautiful dog deserves a chance at a happy life, and with the right people who have enough experience, she will certainly take advantage of it. An experienced foster home would also be very beneficial. Although everyone on site does their best, a shelter is not the best place for anxious dogs to make progress. Alfia is spayed, microchipped, vaccinated, dewormed, and de-fleaed, and has a valid EU pet passport. After a positive pre-check and a deposit, she can be adopted. Who would like to show the beautiful Alfia with intelligence, experience, and love how beautiful life can be? Thank you, Gritt, for this beautiful and fitting name. Thanks to you, Midnight has a chance at a new life. Status: 01.09.2026

Vermittlungsvoraussetzungen Vermittlungsablauf Jetzt dieses Tier anfragen! Vermittlungsvoraussetzungen Vermittlungsablauf Jetzt diesen Hund anfragen! Über Alfias Vergangenheit wissen wir leider nur wenig. Alfia ist ca. 9 Monate alt und ca. 55 cm groß. Aktuell ist sie noch sehr scheu und zurückhaltend. Sie lässt sich derzeit noch nicht anfassen, da sie bisher nur schlechte Erfahrungen mit Menschen gemacht hat. Sie weicht zurück, wenn Menschen ihr zu Nahe kommen. Sie ist die Schwester von Beethoven und Midnight. Wir suchen für Alfia erfahrene Menschen, die wissen worauf es ankommt, um einen ängstlichen Junghund das Vertrauen in die Menschen wieder zurückzugeben. Alfia hat das Leben in einem Haushalt bisher nicht kennenlernen dürfen und muss daher das Hunde Einmaleins noch lernen. Ein eingezäunter Garten wäre für Alfia ideal. So hätte sie die Möglichkeit in ihrem eigenen Tempo in ihrem neuem Leben anzukommen und Vertrauen zu fassen. Alfia ist eine junge Hündin, die klare Strukturen, Geduld und Erziehung benötigt, die ihr Sicherheit geben und sich daraus Vertrauen entwickeln kann. Die Unterstützung durch eine positiv arbeitende Hundeschule, wäre hier sicherlich ein großer Gewinn. Die wunderschöne Hündin hat eine Chance auf ein schönes Hundeleben verdient und mit den richtigen Menschen, die genügend Erfahrung mitbringen, wird sie diese Chance sicherlich nutzen. Auch eine erfahrene Pflegestelle wäre hier ein großer Gewinn. Denn auch wenn alle vor Ort ihr Bestes geben, ist ein Shelter besonders für ängstliche Hunde kein Ort, an dem Sie große Fortschritte machen werden oder können. Alfia reist kastriert, gechipt, geimpft, entwurmt und entfloht und hat einen gültigen EU-Heimtierausweis. Nach einer positiven Vorkontrolle und einer Schutzgebühr kann sie vermittelt werden. Wer möchte der wunderschönen Alfia mit Verstand, Erfahrung und Liebe zeigen, wie schön das Leben sein kann? Danke liebe Gritt, für diesen wunderschönen und passenden Namen. Dank dir hat Midnight eine Chance auf ein neues Leben erhalten. Stand: 01.09.2026 Weitere Informationen zum Thema Vorkontrolle und Schutzgebühr

About Alfia

What life with Alfia looks like

Alfia is a large puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Ein Herz für Streuner e.V. in München.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇩🇪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.
