How do I contact the shelter about Ayla?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Help For Strays e.V. - Animal Hope Riska Belgrad handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Ayla on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Ayla if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Help For Strays e.V. - Animal Hope Riska Belgrad 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 Ayla 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 Ayla 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 Help For Strays e.V. - Animal Hope Riska Belgrad early rather than rehoming privately; they know Ayla 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.

Adopt Ayla

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Puppy · 9 months

Ayla, the gentle Milan found Ayla and Sweetie in the alley when he went shopping in the village. Both looked lost and were walking around on the street. Both Ayla, but especially Sweetie, were in poor health. You can find more about Sweetie on her own profile. Ayla was very thin and upset. Since she is incredibly kind and was constantly regulated by Sweetie during their time in the ambulance, Milan separated the two. Actually, you don't need to say much about Ayla, because the videos speak for themselves. She does not feel comfortable at all in the shelter. Additionally, it is now winter and Ayla is freezing despite jackets and straw. We are urgently looking for a place for her. When Milan looked for a chip for Ayla, it turned out that she was registered by the city on 01.09.2014. This means that Ayla must have lived on the street before coming here, and she was at least 9 months old. This means her birth year could be before 2014. We think it's more than time for the old lady to finally get a warm and loving home. What do you think? If you want to help Ayla, please contact us. Thank you. Info: What does it mean that the dog is not yet ready for adoption? Our dogs are vaccinated according to regulations. Rabies vaccination is done annually in Serbia. To bring dogs from Serbia, which is now a listed third country, into the EU, they need a corresponding rabies titer. This measures whether there are enough antibodies against rabies in the blood. For Serbia, the titer certificate must be at least 3 months old upon entry into the EU. Since titers can be expensive, not all dogs have the certificate, but it is only done when needed. If a dog is adopted, it can take up to 3 months until it is ready for adoption. For this, blood is taken from the dog and sent to the laboratory. This is also the reason why our dogs are only available for adoption, or ready for adoption, at the earliest at 8 months.

Ayla, die Zarte Milan fand Ayla und Sweetie im Kotez, als er zum Einkaufen ins Dorf fuhr. Beide wirkten orientierungslos und liefen auf der Straße umher. Sowohl Ayla, aber vor allem Sweetie waren in keinem guten gesundheitlichen Zustand.Über Sweetie erfahrt ihr mehr auf ihrem eigenen Profil. Ayla war sehr dünn und verstört. Da sie unglaublich lieb ist und von Sweetie in der Zeit in der Ambulanz immer wieder reglementiert wurde, hat Milan die beiden getrennt. Eigentlich muss man zu Ayla nicht viel sagen, denn die Videos sprechen für sich. Sie fühlt sich im Asyl absolut nicht wohl. Zudem ist es jetzt auch noch Winter und Ayla friert trotz Mäntelchen und Stroh erbärmlich. Wir suchen dringend für sie einen Platz.Als Milan Ayla nach einem Chip absuchte, stellte sich heraus, dass sie am 01.09.2014 von der Stadt registriert wurde. Das bedeutet, das Ayla, bevor sie hier landete, auf dem Straße gelebt haben muss, und da mindestens 9 Monate alt war. Das bedeutet, ihr Geburtsjahr kann auch vor 2014 liegen.Wir denken, es ist mehr als an der Zeit, dass die alte Dame endlich ein warmes und liebevolles Zuhause bekommt. Wie seht ihr das? Wer Ayla helfen möchte meldet sich bitte bei uns.Danke Info:Was bedeutet, dass der Hund noch nicht ausreisefertig ist?Unsere Hunde werden regel- und vorschriftsmäßig geimpft. Tollwutimpfung wird in Serbien jährlich gemacht.Um aus Serbien, das mittlerweile ein gelistetes Drittland ist, Hunde in die EU verbringen zu können, brauchen sie einen entsprechenden Tollwuttiter.Der misst, ob genügend Antikörper gegen Tollwut im Blut sind.Für Serbien gilt, dass der Titernachweis bei Einreise in die EU, mindestens 3 Monate alt sein muss.Da Titer recht teuer sind, haben nicht alle Hunde das Zertifikat, sondern es wird erst bei Bedarf gemacht.Wird ein Hund adoptiert, kann es daher 3 Monate dauern, bis er/sie ausreisefertig ist.Dazu wird dem Hund Blut abgenommen, und ins Labor geschickt.Das ist auch der Grund, warum unsere Hunde frühestens mit 8 Monaten vermittelbar, bzw. ausreisefertig sind.

About Ayla

What life with Ayla looks like

Ayla is a puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Help For Strays e.V. - Animal Hope Riska Belgrad in Aachen.

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.

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.
