adoption requirements adoption process Now request this animal! adoption requirements adoption process Now request this dog! Alfie has found a home! His story: Alfie is a young puppy from the litter of Mama Nova. Together with her and his eight siblings—Elsa, Kirby, Mina, Milkshake, Bubble, Summer, Potato, and Malia—he currently lives in the shelter in Fântânele. The nine puppies were born unexpectedly, as Mama Nova was originally caught only for spaying. The start of life is as challenging for Alfie as it is for his siblings. The little family lives in a limited kennel that offers protection from the elements but little space, little variation, and no opportunity to learn about the environment or regular human proximity. Alfie shows age-appropriate activity in the company of his siblings. As he is still very young, his character cannot be reliably assessed at this time. Like all puppies, his development will depend greatly on the experiences, support, and structures he will encounter in the coming months. Visually, Alfie stands out with his particularly fluffy fur and enchanting round eyes. How big he will grow remains to be seen; his mother is athletic and about 55 cm tall. In early February, Alfie will be ready for the next step. A forever family is sought that will give him security, orientation, and time to settle in. A foster home would also be a valuable stepping stone into a new life. At the moment, Alfie is a young puppy at the beginning of his journey. In a few months, he will also enter puberty—a phase that requires loving consistency in his upbringing. We recommend working with a positively oriented dog training class for Alfie. Patient and loving training will foster his development and strengthen the bond to his trusted people. Through regular contact with fellow animals and many positive experiences with his people, Alfie will hopefully develop into a happy and reliable companion. After a positive evaluation, many thanks, Tanja! You have given Alfie his name! Date: 15.02. This animal is vaccinated. This animal is microchipped.

Vermittlungsvoraussetzungen Vermittlungsablauf Jetzt dieses Tier anfragen! Vermittlungsvoraussetzungen Vermittlungsablauf Jetzt diesen Hund anfragen! Alfie hat sein Zuhause gefunden! Seine Geschichte: Alfie ist ein junger Welpenbub aus dem Wurf von Mama Nova. Gemeinsam mit ihr und seinen acht Geschwistern – Elsa, Kirby, Mina, Milkshake, Bubble, Summer, Potato und Malia – lebt er derzeit im Shelter in Fântânele. Die neun Welpen kamen überraschend zur Welt, da Mama Nova ursprünglich nur zur Kastration eingefangen worden war. Der Start ins Leben ist für Alfie wie für seine Geschwister stark eingeschränkt. Die kleine Familie lebt in einem begrenzten Kennel, der Schutz vor Witterung bietet, aber kaum Platz, wenig Abwechslung und keine Möglichkeit, Umweltreize oder regelmäßige menschliche Nähe kennenzulernen. Alfie zeigt sich altersgemäß aktiv im Zusammensein mit seinen Geschwistern. Da er noch sehr jung ist, lässt sich sein Charakter derzeit nicht zuverlässig einschätzen. Wie bei allen Welpen wird seine Entwicklung stark davon abhängen, welche Erfahrungen, Förderung und Strukturen er in den kommenden Monaten erleben darf. Optisch fällt Alfie durch sein besonders flauschiges Fell und seinen umwerfenden Kulleraugen auf. Wie groß er einmal werden wird, lässt sich noch nicht sicher sagen; seine Mutter ist sportlich gebaut und etwa 55 cm groß. Ende Februar wird Alfie bereit sein für den nächsten Schritt. Gesucht wird eine für-immer-Familie, die ihm Sicherheit, Orientierung und Zeit zum Ankommen gibt. Auch eine Pflegestelle wäre ein wertvolles Sprungbrett ins neue Leben. Im Moment ist Alfie ein junges Hundekind am Anfang seines Weges. In einigen Monaten wird auch er in die Pubertät kommen – eine Phase, in der mit liebevoller Konsequenz an seiner Erziehung gearbeitet werden muss. Darum empfehlen wir für Alfie die Zusammenarbeit mit einer positiv arbeitenden Hundeschule. Geduldiges und liebevolles Training wird seine Entwicklung fördern und die Bindung zu seinen Bezugspersonen stärken. Durch regelmäßigen Kontakt zu Artgenossen und viele positive Erlebnisse mit seinen Menschen wird Alfie sich hoffentlich zu einem fröhlichen und zuverlässigen Begleiter entwickeln. Nach positiver Vorkontrolle kann Alfie geimpft, gechipt, entwurmt und mit EU-Heimtierausweis gegen eine Schutzgebühr von 500 Euro vermittelt werden. Vielen Dank Tanja! Du hast Alfie seinen Namen geschenkt! Stand: 15.02.2026

About Alfie

What life with Alfie looks like

Alfie is a 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Alfie, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Alfie?
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 Alfie on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Alfie 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 Alfie 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 Alfie 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 Alfie 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.
