How do I contact the shelter about Benny?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Förderverein Tiernothilfe Siebenbürgen e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Benny on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Benny if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Förderverein Tiernothilfe Siebenbürgen 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 Benny 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 Benny 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 Förderverein Tiernothilfe Siebenbürgen e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Benny 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.

Benny

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 3 years

🐾 Benny is looking for his Forever Home 🐾 Benny is a neutered, medium-sized male dog (under 50 cm) who was rescued from dog catchers in Romania. Since then, he has been living in a foster home and making small progress every day. But what he really needs is a family that can give him time, patience, and love. Initially, Benny is a bit shy around people. He needs a moment to build trust, but then he opens up more and more. He already walks nicely on a leash and shows that he is ready to explore the world by his people's side. Unfortunately, the foster home lacks the time to intensively support him. That's why we wish for Benny a quiet home where he can finally settle in. A confident only dog would be a great help for him, as he tends to keep his distance from other dogs and gains security from that. ❤️ Benny's dream home in a nutshell: 🐕 Neutered male dog 📏 Medium-sized (under 50 cm) 🇷🇴 Rescued from dog catchers in Romania 🦮 Walks nicely on a leash 🌱 Initially a bit shy, but becomes more open 🏡 Sought after a quiet home with patience and understanding 🌳 An enclosed garden would be ideal 🐾 Preferably with a friendly, well-behaved only dog 🚫 Not suitable for city life 🚫 Not for small children ❤️ Looking for people who will give him the time to settle in. ✔️ Who will give this lovable dog a chance at a new life?

🐾 Benny sucht sein Für-immer-Zuhause 🐾 Benny ist ein kastrierter, mittelgroßer Rüde (unter 50 cm), der in Rumänien vor den Hundefängern gerettet wurde. Seitdem lebt er auf einer Pflegestelle und macht jeden Tag kleine Fortschritte. Doch was ihm wirklich fehlt, ist eine eigene Familie, die ihm Zeit, Geduld und Liebe schenkt. Menschen gegenüber ist Benny anfangs noch etwas schüchtern. Er braucht einen Moment, um Vertrauen zu fassen, taut dann aber immer mehr auf. An der Leine läuft er bereits recht gut und zeigt, dass er bereit ist, die Welt an der Seite seiner Menschen zu entdecken. Leider fehlt auf seiner Pflegestelle die Zeit, ihn intensiv zu fördern. Deshalb wünschen wir uns für Benny ein ruhiges Zuhause, in dem er endlich ankommen darf. Ein souveräner Ersthund wäre für ihn eine große Hilfe, denn von anderen Hunden schaut er sich vieles ab und gewinnt dadurch Sicherheit. ❤️ Bennys Wunschzuhause auf einen Blick: 🐕 Kastrierter Rüde 📏 Mittelgroß (unter 50 cm) 🇷🇴 Vor den Hundefängern in Rumänien gerettet 🦮 Läuft bereits recht gut an der Leine 🌱 Anfangs etwas schüchtern, wird aber immer offener 🏡 Ruhiges Zuhause mit Geduld und Verständnis gesucht 🌳 Eingezäunter Garten wäre ideal 🐾 Gerne zu einem freundlichen, gut erzogenen Ersthund 🚫 Nicht für das Leben in der Stadt geeignet 🚫 Nicht zu kleinen Kindern ❤️ Sucht Menschen, die ihm Zeit geben anzukommen ✔️ Mit Schutzvertrag ✔️ Gegen Schutzgebühr von 490 € 🍀 Benny hat schon so viel hinter sich und verdient endlich sein eigenes Körbchen, in dem er sich sicher und geborgen fühlen darf. Wer schenkt diesem liebenswerten Hund die Chance auf ein neues Leben? 🐾❤️

About Benny

What life with Benny looks like

Benny is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Förderverein Tiernothilfe Siebenbürgen 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.
