Adopt Buffy

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 3 years

Buffy is a female, neutered, born around May 2023, with an unknown cat-friendliness that can be tested. Height: shoulder height in full-grown condition around 45-50 cm. Weight: in full-grown condition around 20 kg. Buffy is one of five puppies that roamed the streets of Ukraine without a mother. Neighbors, disturbed by the dogs, killed one of the puppies. Thereafter, animal rescuer Emmy and her three sisters took her in. Starting in March, Buffy will be placed in a foster home in Bavaria to bring her from the war zone into a safe environment. Buffy has an absolutely friendly nature. At first, she is a bit shy but warms up quickly. Her foster home is already working on leash training, which is now going well for her age. She is well socialized and compatible with other dogs. If you would like to give her a safe and loving home, we would be happy if you fill out our application form at Angeles Hundehilfe e.V. – adoption process adoption fee (angeles-hundehilfe.de). We will get back to you as soon as possible after receiving your application. We are exclusively volunteer-run (in addition to our regular jobs). You can also contact Viola at 757 or Steffi at 179 (preferably via WhatsApp). Gets along with other cats.

Buffy Alter: geboren ca. Mai 2023 Geschlecht: weiblich Kastriert: ja Katzenverträglich: unbekannt, kann aber getestet werden Größe: Schulterhöhe in ausgewachsenem Zustand circa 45-50 cm Gewicht: in ausgewachsenem Zustand circa 20 kg Buffy ist eine von 5 Welpen, die ohne Mutter in der Ukraine auf der Straße herumirrte. Anwohner fühlten sich von den Hunden gestört und töteten einen Welpen. Daraufhin nahm eine Tierschützerin Emmy und ihre 3 Schwestern bei sich auf. Buffy wird ab März auf eine Pflegestelle nach Bayern kommen, um sie aus dem Kriegsgebiet in eine sichere Umgebung zu bringen. Buffy hat ein absolut freundliches Wesen. Anfangs ist sie noch etwas schüchtern, taut dann aber schnell auf. Ihre Pflegestelle übt auch schon das Laufen an der Leine, was mittlerweile entsprechend ihres Alters gut klappt. Mit anderen Hunden ist gut sozialisiert und verträglich. Wenn Sie ihr ein sicheres und liebevolles Zuhause geben möchten, freuen wir uns, wenn Sie unser Anfrageformular unter: Angeles Hundehilfe e.V. – Vermittlungsablauf Schutzgebühr (angeles-hundehilfe.de) ausfüllen. Wir melden uns dann nach Eingang schnellstmöglich bei Ihnen. Bitte haben Sie Verständnis, wenn es ein paar Tage dauert. Wir sind ausschließlich ehrenamtlich tätig (neben unseren normalen Berufen). Außerdem können Sie sich auch (bevorzugt via Whatsapp) an Viola unter 757 oder an Steffi unter 179 wenden.

About Buffy

What life with Buffy looks like

Buffy is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Starnberg in Starnberg.

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 Buffy, answered.

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