Adopt Bonnie

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy · 4 months

Description Our animal welfare workers report: Bonnie and her sister Annie had a difficult start to life. Torn from their mother and placed in a cardboard box, the two puppies were abandoned in a field. Sentenced to die without food and water, without protection from the sun and bad weather, discarded like trash. Unfortunately, still a sad reality in Romania. The heart of such a young puppy should be full of joy, play, and love – but instead, Bonnie and Annie had to endure loneliness and fear for their lives. A guardian angel sent Paula, our local animal rescuer, just in time to save them from this hopeless situation. She took the siblings to her small rescue center where they received medical and hygienic care and have since been living protected. However, a young, growing dog needs clear rules, a framework within which it can move safely, meaningful mental stimulation, and loving attention. Paula cannot provide all of this in her rescue center with 50 to 60 dogs alone. Therefore, it is important that Bonnie quickly finds people who can dedicate themselves to her and take on the beautiful task of accompanying her on her journey to becoming a well-adjusted family dog. In the rescue center, Bonnie has learned to trust humans. She is friendly, playful, curious, and full of zest for life. She gets along excellently with her fellow animals and even cats. Age-appropriate, she is active and wants to discover so much more, feel love, and finally find a place to belong. Bonnie loves to cuddle with humans and generously gives kisses. Who would like to give this special soul a life full of warmth, joy, and security and show her the beautiful sides of being a family dog? Her suitcase is already packed for her journey to happiness, and she promises to return the love she receives a thousandfold. 26.01.2026 new videos Please note:

Beschreibung Unsere Tierschützer berichten: Bonnie und ihre Schwester Annie hatten einen schweren Start ins Leben. Der Mutter entrissen und in einen Karton verfrachtet wurden die zwei Welpen auf einem Feld ausgesetzt. Verurteilt zum Sterben ohne Nahrung und Wasser, ohne Schutz vor Sonne und Unwetter, entsorgt wie Müll. Leider immer noch traurige Realität in Rumänien. Das Herz eines so jungen Hundes sollte voller Freude, Spiel und Liebe sein – doch stattdessen mussten Bonnie und Annie in Einsamkeit und Angst um ihr Leben bangen. Ein Schutzengel schickte ihnen gerade noch rechtzeitig Paula, unsere Tierschützerin vor Ort, um sie aus dieser ausweglosen Situation zu retten. Sie nahm die Geschwister mit in ihre kleine Auffangstation, in der sie medizinisch und hygienisch versorgt wurden und seitdem beschützt leben. Ein junger, heranwachsender Hund braucht jedoch klare Regeln, einen Rahmen, in dem er sich sicher bewegen darf, sinnvolle Beschäftigung und eine liebevolle Ansprache. Das alles kann Paula in ihrer Auffangstation mit 50 bis 60 Hunden allein nicht leisten. Deshalb ist es wichtig, dass Bonnie schnell Menschen findet, die sich ihr widmen und die schöne Aufgabe übernehmen, sie auf ihrem Weg zu einem alltagstauglichen Familienhund zu begleiten.In der Auffangstation hat Bonnie gelernt, Menschen zu vertrauen. Sie ist freundlich, verspielt, neugierig und voller Lebensfreude. Mit ihren Artgenossen und auch Katzen verträgt sie sich ausgezeichnet. Altersentsprechend ist sie aktiv und möchte noch so viel entdecken, Liebe spüren und endlich ankommen dürfen. Bonnie liebt es, mit Menschen zu schmusen und verteilt großzügig Küsschen. Wer möchte dieser besonderen Seele ein Leben voller Wärme, Freude und Geborgenheit geben und ihr die schönen Seiten des Lebens eines Familienhundes zeigen? Das Köfferchen hat sie bereits gepackt für ihre Reise ins Glück und verspricht, die Liebe, die ihr zu Teil wird, tausendfach zurückzugeben. 26.01.2026 neue Videos Bitte beachten Sie:Die Rückmeldungen der Tierheime spiegeln das aktuelle Verhalten der hier zur

About Bonnie

What life with Bonnie looks like

Bonnie is a large puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Tierischgeholfen e.V. in Germany.

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 Bonnie, answered.

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