Becky

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 3 years

The pretty Becky is a female dog, approximately 4 years old (born in August 2022), and currently still lives in Romania. She was rescued together with her puppies from the street. Most of her babies have already found homes – now Becky is waiting for her chance. At first, Becky is rather shy and reserved. She needs some time to get to know new people and situations. Once she has developed trust, however, she becomes a loving, social, and clingy companion. With a shoulder height of about 35 cm and around 8 kg, Becky belongs to the small to medium-sized dogs. She is compatible with other dogs and also gets along well with cats. For Becky, we wish for a quiet, patient home with people who will give her the time to settle in and build trust at her own pace. Whoever gives her this chance will win a loyal and gentle lifelong friend.

Die hübsche Becky ist eine etwa 4 Jahre alte Hündin (*08/2022) und lebt derzeit noch in Rumänien. Sie wurde gemeinsam mit ihren Welpen von der Straße gerettet. Die meisten ihrer Babys haben inzwischen bereits ein Zuhause gefunden – nun wartet auch Becky auf ihre Chance. Anfangs zeigt sich Becky eher schüchtern und zurückhaltend. Sie braucht etwas Zeit, um neue Menschen und Situationen kennenzulernen. Hat sie jedoch einmal Vertrauen gefasst, entwickelt sie sich zu einer liebevollen, sozialen und anhänglichen Begleiterin. Mit einer Schulterhöhe von ca. 35 cm und etwa 8 kg gehört Becky zu den kleinen mittelgroßen Hunden. Sie ist verträglich mit anderen Hunden und kommt auch mit Katzen gut zurecht. Für Becky wünschen wir uns ein ruhiges, geduldiges Zuhause bei Menschen, die ihr die Zeit geben, in ihrem eigenen Tempo anzukommen und Vertrauen aufzubauen. Wer ihr diese Chance schenkt, gewinnt eine treue und sanfte Freundin fürs Leben.

About Becky

What life with Becky looks like

Becky is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Step by Paw 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 Becky, answered.

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