Adopt Candy

Podenco · Female · Adult · 4 years

Candy is a beautiful Podenco-mixed-breed female dog who is shy around people. She prefers to hide in her hut. However, if people bring her a treat, she will peek out and grab a snack. We wish and need a home for Candy with a confident only dog who can provide her with security. People need to have patience to let her come to them. The responsibility of a shelter dog is always a special challenge. The dogs bring a backpack full of past experiences or unlearned situations and need time to adjust to their new life. Would you like to take on the challenge and give the sweet female dog a home? Candy would also be happy in a foster home. Due to flood reasons, Candy was on a foster home:. This animal has a history of biting.

Candy ist eine wunderschöne Podenco-Mischlingshündin, die schüchtern gegenüber Menschen ist. Sie versteckt sich am liebsten in ihrer Hütte. Wenn Menschen ihr Leckerlis mitbringen, schaut sie aber auch mal heraus und schnappt sich ein Leckerli. Wir wünschen und für Candy ein Zuhause mit einem souveränen Ersthund, der ihr Sicherheit gibt. Die Menschen müssen Geduld haben, um sie ihn Ruhe ankommen zu lassen. Die Verantwortung für einen Tierschutzhund ist immer eine besondere Herausforderung. Die Hunde bringen einen Rucksack mit vergangenen Erlebnissen oder ungelernten Situationen mit und brauchen Zeit sich an ihr neues Leben zu gewöhnen. Möchten Sie die Herausforderung annehmen und der süßen Hündin ein Zuhause schenken? Auch über eine Pflegestelle würde Candy sich freuen.

About Candy

What life with Candy looks like

Candy is a adult podenco dog waiting at SALVA Hundehilfe e.V. in Germany.

An 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 Candy, answered.

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