Brina

English Setter · Female · Puppy

The vet with whom we occasionally cooperate in Sassari, and who Paola also knows, has a second ambulatory office in Macomer. And there, a hunter brought in this pretty setter female dog. Presumably, he had been using her as a breeding machine, and now he no longer found her useful and simply wanted to get rid of her. The vet immediately asked if we could help, and Paola took the female dog into her care. In the rescue, Brina, as the female dog is named, is now in safety. And in the company of the other dogs who live there with her, she feels very comfortable. She enjoys the "running rounds" in the open run very much, and she also likes to roll in the soft sand. Even for the friendly Brina, the rescue should only be a short stop in her life. We wish for her that she can travel to Germany soon, to find a permanent home with loving people who want to let her participate in all family activities. Active, sporty people who like to be out in nature will surely find a wonderful companion in the lively Brina. Would you like to enrich your family with the lovable Brina? March 28, 2026: Brina was allowed to travel to her German foster home. April 17, 2026: Brina has settled well into her foster home and shows herself to be a loving, friendly, and gentle female dog. For her happiness, we wish for a more peaceful environment, as she would likely be overwhelmed in the middle of the city. She is a very balanced female dog, already house-trained, and is making good progress with the leash training. She gets along well with the daughter in the household and shows herself to be uncomplicated and pleasant in everyday life. For Brina, we are looking for a home where she can finally arrive. Her life in Sardinia was certainly not easy, but she now enjoys the affection and the extended walks with her foster mom. Active people who like to spend time in nature would fit her perfectly. Activities like mantrailing or agility could bring her a lot of joy, but of course, they are not a must. What is most important is that Brina finds people who will give her love, peace, and security. If you are currently looking for a new furry family member and are aware that adoption means not only joy but also work and great responsibility, then we look forward to your message. We place throughout Germany.

Die Tierärztin, mit der wir gelegentlich in Sassari zusammenarbeiten und auch Paola kennt, hat ein zweites Ambulatorio in Macomer. Und dorthin brachte ein Jäger diese hübsche Setterhündin. Vermutlich hat er sie als Gebärmaschine missbraucht, nun konnte er sie "nicht mehr gebrauchen" und wollte sie einfach nur noch loswerden. Die Tierärztin fragte sofort nach, ob wir helfen könnten, und Paola nahm die Hündin in ihre Obhut.Im Rescue ist Brina, wie die Hündin heißt, nun in Sicherheit. Und in Gesellschaft der anderen Hunde, die mit ihr dort leben, fühlt sie sich auch sehr wohl. Die "Rennrunden" im Freilauf genießt sie sehr, und gern rollt sie sich auch im weichen Sand.Auch für die freundliche Brina soll das Rescue nur eine kurze Zwischenstation in ihrem Leben sein. Wir wünschen uns für sie, dass sie bald nach Deutschland reisen kann, um hier bei lieben Menschen, die sie an allen familiären Aktivitäten teilhaben lassen wollen, ihr Zuhause für immer zu finden. Aktive, sportliche Menschen, die gern in der Natur unterwegs sind, werden in der lauffreudigen Brina sicherlich eine tolle Begleiterin finden.Möchten Sie Ihre Familie durch die liebenswerte Brina bereichern? 28. März 2026:Brina durfte auf ihren deutschen Pflegeplatz reisen.17. April 2026: Brina hat sich gut in ihrer Pflegestelle eingelebt und zeigt sich dort als liebe, freundliche und sanfte Hündin. Für ihr Glück wünschen wir uns ein eher ruhigeres Umfeld, da sie mitten in der Stadt vermutlich schnell überfordert wäre.Sie ist eine sehr ausgeglichene Hündin, bereits stubenrein und macht auch bei der Leinenführigkeit schon gute Fortschritte. Mit der Tochter im Haushalt kommt sie bestens zurecht und zeigt sich im Alltag unkompliziert und angenehm.Für Brina suchen wir ein Zuhause, in dem sie endlich ankommen darf. Ihr bisheriges Leben in Sardinien war sicherlich nicht einfach, umso mehr genießt sie nun die Zuwendung und die ausgedehnten Spaziergänge mit ihrer Pflegemama.Aktive Menschen, die gerne Zeit in der Natur verbringen, würden perfekt zu ihr passen. Auch Beschäftigungen wie Mantrailing oder Agility könnten ihr viel Freude bereiten, sind aber natürlich kein Muss. Wichtig ist vor allem, dass Brina Menschen findet, die ihr Liebe, Ruhe und Sicherheit schenken.Wenn Sie gerade auf der Suche nach einem neuen fellnasigen Familienmitglied sind und Ihnen bewusst ist, dass eine Adoption nicht nur viel Freude bedeutet, sondern auch Arbeit und große Verantwortung mit sich bringt, dann freuen wir uns auf Ihre Nachricht.Wir vermitteln bundesweit.Ihre Ansprechpartnerin für diese

About Brina

What life with Brina looks like

Brina is a large puppy/kitten english setter dog waiting at ProTier 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 Brina, answered.

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