Balu 💓

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 8 months

neutered: no, too young Größe: in growth, likely to become medium-sized Aufenthaltsort: Romania Balu and his siblings were born on the street. Their mother Darcy was a stray dog. Darcy and her puppies were discovered on the street, and our animal rescuer took the family in. Balu lives with his siblings and mother in a pen at the shelter. The puppies are all typical puppy-like: curious, playful, open. After receiving all vaccinations, Balu can travel to his 4ever home. Our dogs travel: vaccinated, microchipped, dewormed, and with an EU passport. Starting at 8 months of age, a rapid test for the 4 regionally most important parasites is conducted, and neutered dogs are typically at 10 months of age. Our adoption fee includes:

DE·Show original

kastriert: nein, zu jung Größe: im Wachstum, aktuell ca 33 cm SH – vermutlich ausgewachsen ca 40 cm Aufenthaltsort: Rumänien Balu und seine Geschwister wurden auf der Straße geboren. Die Mutter Darcy war ein Straßenhund. Dort wurde Darcy und ihre Welpen entdeckt und unsere Tierschützerin nahm die Familie zu sich. Balu lebt mit den Geschwistern und der Mutter in einem Gehege, im Shelter. Mittlerweile ist Balu zu einem Junghund herangewachsen. Wer schwarze Hunde liebt… hier ist BALU, der auf ein Zuhause wartet. Unsere Hunde reisen: geimpft, gechipt, entwurmt und mit EU-Pass aus. Ab dem Alter von 8 Monaten wird ein Schnelltest auf die 4 regional wichtigsten Parasitosen durchgeführt, kastriert sind die Hunde i.d.R ab dem Alter von 10 Monaten Die Einschätzungen der Hunde beziehen sich auf den aktuellen, gewohnten Aufenthaltsort, also im gewohnten Umfeld mit bekannten Betreuern, im vorhandenem Rudel. Wie ein Hund sich in der Zukunft, vor allem nach einem Umzug in ein neues Zuhause zeigen wird, können wir nicht bzw nur bedingt voraussagen. Jedes Tier ist ein Individuum, wird sich verändern und weiterentwickeln.

About Balu 💓

What life with Balu 💓 looks like

Balu 💓 is a medium-sized puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Wir retten Hunde 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 Balu 💓, answered.

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