Anubys

Labrador Retriever · Male · Young · 1 year

Labrador mix Anubys - Not even two weeks - and already looking for a new home. This sweet dog boy has spent most of his short life in a Spanish animal shelter. He knew nothing but life in a kennel. A few weeks ago, he was finally allowed to move to a loving foster home - out of the shelter and into a world that was completely new to him. It quickly became apparent what a wonderful, loving and eager to learn dog is in him. He enjoys the attention and closeness of his people and just wants to belong. He is just starting to learn what a real dog life feels like. Then his luck seemed perfect: He found his supposed forever home. But not even two weeks later he has to move again. Not because he did something wrong. It just became too much, too fast from him - expectations that he couldn't fulfill after such a short time and with his history. And you can't expect that from a young dog who has only known kennel life so far. He has already learned an incredible amount in a short time. Leash training has already improved significantly and he already masters the basic commands. Outside he is still very excited and in some situations a bit stormy. Dog encounters also need to be practiced with him. He can't do everything yet - he's just starting to learn. He gets to experience and gradually understand what is expected of him. Learning takes time, patience and people who give him this time. On his foster home, he has also already shown that he can stay alone for some time and calm down. For how little he has been able to experience so far, he does his thing wonderfully. Now we are looking for people who do not expect perfection after a few days, but who enjoy showing a young animal protection dog life and growing with him. Because he has everything it takes to become a wonderful family dog. And this time his home should really be forever. Here's Anubys' video.

Labradormischling Anubys – Nicht einmal zwei Wochen – und schon wieder auf der Suche Dieser liebe Hundejunge hat in seinem noch so kurzen Leben die meiste Zeit im spanischen Tierheim verbracht. Er kannte eigentlich nichts anderes als das Leben im Zwinger. Vor einigen Wochen durfte er endlich auf eine liebevolle Pflegestelle ziehen – raus aus dem Tierheim und hinein in eine Welt, die für ihn komplett neu war. Dort zeigte sich schnell, was für ein wunderbarer, lieber und lernwilliger Hund in ihm steckt. Er genießt die Aufmerksamkeit und Nähe seiner Menschen und möchte einfach dazugehören. Er lernt doch gerade erst, wie sich ein richtiges Hundeleben anfühlt. Dann schien sein Glück perfekt: Er fand sein vermeintliches Für-immer-Zuhause. Doch nicht einmal zwei Wochen später muss er wieder ausziehen. Nicht, weil er etwas falsch gemacht hat. Es wurde einfach zu viel, zu schnell von ihm erwartet – Erwartungen, die er nach so kurzer Zeit und mit seiner Vorgeschichte noch gar nicht erfüllen konnte. Und die man von einem jungen Hund, der bisher fast nur das Zwingerleben kannte, auch nicht erwarten kann. Dabei hat er in kurzer Zeit schon unglaublich viel gelernt. Die Leinenführigkeit ist bereits deutlich besser geworden und die Grundkommandos beherrscht er schon. Draußen ist er noch sehr aufgeregt und in manchen Situationen etwas stürmisch. Auch Hundebegegnungen müssen weiter mit ihm geübt werden. Er kann noch nicht alles können – er lernt doch gerade erst. Er darf Erfahrungen sammeln und Schritt für Schritt verstehen, was von ihm erwartet wird. Lernen braucht Zeit, Geduld und Menschen, die ihm diese Zeit auch geben. Auf seiner Pflegestelle hat er außerdem bereits gezeigt, dass er einige Zeit alleine bleiben und zur Ruhe kommen kann. Dafür, wie wenig er bisher kennenlernen durfte, macht er seine Sache einfach wunderbar. Nun suchen wir Menschen, die nicht nach wenigen Tagen Perfektion erwarten, sondern Freude daran haben, einem jungen Tierschutzhund das Leben zu zeigen und gemeinsam mit ihm zu wachsen. Denn er bringt alles mit, um ein wunderbarer Familienhund zu werden. Und dieses Mal soll sein Zuhause wirklich für immer sein. Hier gehts zu Anubys‘ Video

About Anubys

What life with Anubys looks like

Anubys is a young adult labrador retriever dog waiting at SALVA Hundehilfe e.V. in Germany.

An young 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 Anubys, answered.

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