Adopt Ampi

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 9 years

Profile Age: Born around 2023. Gender: Female. Spayed: YesCharacter: Friendly, compatible with companionsSize: Approximately 40 cmIn shelter since: July 2025 Hello, I'm her – your new best friend if you'd like… I was simply left behind, all alone on a field. So alone that I didn't even know where to go or what to do. Maybe you can see a sad face in my photos – it's because I often get lost in thought and secretly wish someone would come and take me home. But you know what? I'm not just sad; I'm also full of hope and ready to start anew. I love people, even though I still don't fully understand why I was left behind. People describe me as a quiet, unobtrusive, and gentle female dog. While some dogs demand a lot of closeness, I win people's hearts with my calm demeanor. I'm just there, waiting almost politely, and then I can't get enough cuddles. My gentle soul enjoys the snuggles, and people immediately feel how they can relax. I also get along well with other dogs, and I so desperately wish for a family that will take my hand, show me that I'm finally safe and loved. At the shelter, I've already learned a little that there are also beautiful moments. But I dream of my own home, a warm spot, a sofa where I can snuggle, and a family that will never let me go. Maybe you're the exact person who will light up my heart? I'm ready for a new life – with you by my side. If you're interested in Ampi, please fill out our interested parties form () or write us an email or a message on Facebook. Ampi is ready to travel and can travel to Germany with the next transport. Our dogs travel legally with Traces. Traces refers to the database system that monitors the entire animal transport within the EU. The dogs travel neutered (if old enough), vaccinated, microchipped, and dewormed, and they have an EU passport. Additionally, for dogs over 12 months old, a rapid test for the following Mediterranean diseases is conducted before travel arrangements: Borreliosis, Anaplasmosis, Ehrlichiosis, Dirofilariosis, and leishmaniasis. Family Kl. has taken the sponsorship for Ampi and thus ensures a full plate. Many thanks on behalf of the dogs!

Steckbrief Alter: ca. 2023 geboren. Geschlecht: weiblich. Kastriert: jaCharakter: freundlich, verträglich mit ArtgenossenGröße: ca. 40 cmIm Shelter seit: Juli 2025 Hallo, ich bin’s – deine neue beste Freundin, wenn du möchtest…Ich wurde einfach zurückgelassen, ganz allein auf einem Feld. So allein, dass ich gar nicht wusste, wohin ich gehen oder was ich tun sollte. Vielleicht siehst du auf meinen Bildern ein trauriges Gesicht – das liegt daran, dass ich oft tief in Gedanken bin und mir insgeheim wünsche, dass jemand kommt und mich endlich mitnimmt.Aber weißt du was? Ich bin nicht nur traurig, ich bin auch voller Hoffnung und bereit, neu anzufangen. Ich liebe Menschen, auch wenn ich noch nicht ganz verstehe, warum ich verlassen wurde.Die Menschen beschreiben mich als eine stille, unaufdringliche und sanfte Hündin.Während einige Hunde Nähe ziemlich forsch einfordern, erobere ich die Herzen der Menschen mit meiner ruhigen Art. Ich bin einfach da und warte, fast höflich, und kann dann gar nicht genug Streicheleinheiten bekommen. Meine sanfte Seele genießt das Kuscheln und die Menschen spüren sofort, wie sie selbst zur Ruhe kommen.Mit anderen Hunden komme ich auch gut klar, und ich wünsche mir so sehr eine Familie, die mich an die Hand nimmt, mir zeigt, dass ich endlich sicher und geliebt bin.Bei den Menschen hier im Shelter habe ich schon ein bisschen gelernt, dass es auch schöne Momente gibt. Aber ich träume von meinem eigenen Zuhause, einem warmen Plätzchen, einem Sofa, auf dem ich mich ankuscheln kann, und von einer Familie, die mich niemals mehr loslässt.Vielleicht bist du ja genau die Person, die mein Herz zum Leuchten bringt? Ich bin bereit für ein neues Leben – mit dir an meiner Seite. Wenn Sie Interesse an Ampi haben, füllen Sie bitte unseren Interessentenbogen aus () oder schreiben Sie uns eine E-Mail an oder eine Nachricht über Facebook. Ampi ist ausreisefertig und kann mit dem nächsten Transport nach Deutschland reisen. Unsere Hunde reisen legal mit Traces. Als Traces bezeichnet man das Datenbanksystem, mit dem der gesamte Tierverkehr innerhalb der EU überwacht wird. Die Hunde reisen kastriert (insofern alt genug), geimpft, gechipt und entwurmt aus und besitzen einen EU-Pass. Des Weiteren wird bei Hunden ab 12 Monaten vor der Ausreise ein Schnelltest auf folgende Mittelmeerkrankheiten durchgeführt: Borreliose, Anaplasmose, Ehrlichiose, Dirofilariose und Leishmaniose. Familie Kl. hat die Patenschaft für Ampi übernommen und sorgt somit für ein gefülltes Näpfchen. Vielen Dank im Namen der Hunde!

About Ampi

What life with Ampi looks like

Ampi is a medium-sized senior mixed breed dog waiting at Seelen für Seelchen e.V. in Alfter.

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. 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 Ampi, answered.

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