Pointer · Female · Puppy

23.03.26 Amaya – a gentle English Pointer female – was found where there should really be no life at all. Out in the middle of nowhere, far from any civilization, she was wandering around… alone, emaciated down to the bone, severely dehydrated, and desperately searching for anything edible. No one knows how long she had been struggling out there. No one knows how much suffering she had already endured. When she was found, her gaze was empty and tired – and yet there was still a small spark of hope in it. Hope of finally being seen. Finally receiving help. However, Amaya's condition is cause for great concern. Besides her severe emaciation, there is a clear swelling in the abdominal area that urgently needs to be medically examined. We don't yet know what exactly lies behind it, but it is clear that she needs fast and intensive veterinary care. The finder did not look away. He secured Amaya and took her directly to the veterinarian at our expense. He is taking her in for a few days so that Amaya can at least feel a small measure of safety before she moves into a boarding facility. 05.07.2026 Several tumors were surgically removed from Amaya. During the examinations, metastases were also found in the nasal area, which unfortunately could not be operated on. At the moment Amaya is stable and doing well under the circumstances. We are very grateful for this. However, no one can predict how her illness will progress. That makes it all the more important that she now receives the best possible care – in her boarding facility as well as through regular veterinary check-ups, the necessary medications, and everything that can still give her many beautiful and carefree moments. Every day in which Amaya can enjoy her life is a precious gift. Our greatest wish is to give her this time filled with lots of love, security, and care. Amaya is such a dear, gentle, and affectionate soul. It is lovely to see how, step by step, she is becoming more stable and finally gaining the peace she so deeply deserves. Anyone who would like to support Amaya with a donation or a sponsorship to help cover her monthly boarding and veterinary costs is very welcome to get in touch with us. Every small contribution helps us continue to provide Amaya with the on-site care she so urgently needs. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you! Hunderettung e.V.

23.03.26 Amaya – eine zarte English Pointer Hündin – wurde dort gefunden, wo eigentlich kein Leben sein sollte. Mitten im Nirgendwo, fernab jeder Zivilisation, irrte sie umher… allein, abgemagert bis auf die Knochen, völlig dehydriert und verzweifelt auf der Suche nach etwas Essbarem. Niemand weiß, wie lange sie dort schon gekämpft hat. Niemand weiß, wie viel Leid sie bereits ertragen musste.Als sie gefunden wurde, war ihr Blick leer und müde – und doch lag darin noch ein kleiner Funken Hoffnung. Hoffnung darauf, endlich gesehen zu werden. Endlich Hilfe zu bekommen.Doch Amayas Zustand bereitet große Sorgen. Neben ihrer starken Auszehrung zeigt sich eine deutliche Umfangsvermehrung im Bauchbereich, die dringend medizinisch abgeklärt werden muss. Was genau dahintersteckt, wissen wir noch nicht – aber es ist klar, dass sie schnelle und intensive tierärztliche Versorgung braucht.Der Finder hat nicht weggesehen. Er hat Amaya gesichert und sie auf unsere Kosten direkt zum Tierarzt gebracht. Für ein paar Tage nimmt sie sie bei sich auf, damit Amaya wenigstens ein kleines Stück Sicherheit spüren darf, bevor sie in eine Pension umziehen kann. 05.07.2026 Bei Amaya wurden mehrere Tumore operativ entfernt. Während der Untersuchungen wurden außerdem Metastasen im Nasenbereich festgestellt, die leider nicht operiert werden konnten.Im Moment ist Amaya stabil und es geht ihr den Umständen entsprechend gut. Darüber sind wir sehr dankbar. Wie sich ihre Erkrankung weiterentwickeln wird, kann jedoch niemand vorhersagen. Umso wichtiger ist es, dass sie jetzt die bestmögliche Versorgung erhält – in ihren Pension sowie regelmäßigen tierärztlichen Kontrollen, den notwendigen Medikamenten und allem, was ihr noch viele schöne und unbeschwerte Momente schenken kann.Jeder Tag, an dem Amaya ihr Leben genießen kann, ist ein kostbares Geschenk. Unser größter Wunsch ist es, ihr diese Zeit mit ganz viel Liebe, Geborgenheit und Fürsorge zu schenken.Amaya ist so eine liebe, sanfte und anhängliche Seele. Es ist schön zu sehen, wie sie Schritt für Schritt stabiler wird und endlich die Ruhe bekommt, die sie so sehr verdient hat. Wer Amaya mit einer Spende oder einer Patenschaft unterstützen möchte, um ihre monatlichen Pensions- und Tierarztkosten mitzutragen, darf sich sehr gerne bei uns melden. Jede noch so kleine Unterstützung hilft uns, Amaya weiterhin die Versorgung vor Ort zu ermöglichen, die sie so dringend braucht. Von Herzen danke! Hunderettung e.V.

About Amaya

What life with Amaya looks like

Amaya is a medium-sized puppy pointer dog waiting at Hunderettung e.V. in Berlin.

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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Amaya, answered.

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