Bella

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 8 years

Bella was abandoned by her owners. In Romania, Charlie and Bella had been chained up outside a house for some time. When the house was sold, the dogs were left alone on a short chain. The two were completely neglected and only received minimal care from a neighbor. A rescuer freed the dogs in August 2024 and temporarily placed Bella and Charlie on a company premises. Unfortunately, the rescuer cannot keep the dogs himself as he already has six dogs. Charlie and Bella cannot stay on the company premises permanently. ITV Grenzenlos wants to help and is looking for a new home in Germany for Charlie and Bella, separately. Bella is a very friendly and loving dog. She likes all people and is thrilled about food. She had to go without both for a long time. It is surprising how much love and trust Bella has to give, after all she had to go through with her first owners. The beautiful dog is looking for a home in the countryside with a well-fenced garden. She has not yet experienced much and still has a lot to catch up on. She is to be placed with patient and experienced people. Bella was born in June 2018 and is 56 cm tall. She will be spayed, chipped and vaccinated. Before departure, she will receive a blood test.

Bella wurde von ihren Menschen verlassen In Rumänien wurden Charlie und Bella schon länger vor einem Haus an einer Kette gehalten. Als das Haus verkauft wurde, ließ man die Hunde einfach allein an der kurzen Kette zurück. Die beiden waren völlig verwahrlost und wurden nur notdürftig von einer Nachbarin versorgt. Ein Tierschützer befreite die Hunde im August 2024 und brachte Bella und Charlie vorläufig auf einem Firmengelände unter. Leider kann er die Hunde nicht selbst behalten, da er bereits sechs Hunde hat. Auf dem Firmengelände können Charlie und Bella auch nicht dauerhaft bleiben. Der ITV Grenzenlos möchte helfen und sucht für Charlie und Bella jeweils getrennt ein neues Zuhause in Deutschland. Bella ist eine sehr freundliche und liebe Hündin. Sie mag alle Menschen und freut sich riesig über Futter. Beides musste sie ja lange entbehren. Es ist verwunderlich wieviel Liebe und Vertrauen Bella zu geben hat, nach all dem, was sie mit ihren ersten Besitzern durchmachen musste. Die schöne Hündin sucht ein Zuhause auf dem Land mit einem gut eingezäunten Garten. Sie hat noch nicht viel kennengelernt und muss noch einiges nachholen. Sie soll an geduldige und erfahrene Menschen vermittelt werden. Bella ist im Juni 2018 geboren und 56 cm groß. Sie wird kastriert, gechipt und geimpft abgegeben. Vor der Ausreise bekommt sie noch einen Blutschnelltest. Wenn Sie Interesse an Bella haben, senden Sie uns bitte das Kontaktformular, oder rufen Sie uns an: 05071 – 4126 oder .

About Bella

What life with Bella looks like

Bella is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at ITV Grenzenlos e.V. in Essel.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Bella, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Bella?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. ITV Grenzenlos e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Bella on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Bella if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — ITV Grenzenlos 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Bella 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 Bella 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 ITV Grenzenlos e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Bella 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.
