Catania

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

Catania, born approximately March 2025, neutered, fully grown approximately 55-60 cm shoulder height, with Georgiana since September 2025 Catania was found by Georgiana on the street in very poor condition - she was suffering from mange and parvovirus. Thanks to good care and a lot of effort, she has now fully recovered and shows what a special dog she is. She is calm, gentle and very attentive, observing her surroundings carefully and approaching everything with a friendly nature. She gets on well with other dogs, and also shows a balanced attitude towards cats. Currently in Romania and allowed to leave if a home is found. Travels chipped and vaccinated (EU vaccination passport; vaccinations: rabies and basic immunization). All dogs are treated against intestinal parasites and ectoparasites on arrival at the shelter and at least once a year thereafter. The described behavioral observations are based on everyday life in the shelter and may be different in a domestic environment under changed living conditions. The transport (registered with Traces) will be organized and carried out by us, as far as legally possible for the destination country. Please note the information on this page.

09/2025 Catania, geboren ca. 03/2025, kastriert, ausgewachsen ca. 55-60 cm Schulterhöhe, bei Georgiana seit 09/2025 Catania wurde von Georgiana in einem sehr schlechten Zustand auf der Straße gefunden – sie war an Räude und Parvovirose erkrankt. Dank guter Pflege und viel Einsatz hat sie sich inzwischen vollständig erholt und zeigt heute, was für ein besonderer Hund in ihr steckt. Sie ist ruhig, sanft und sehr aufmerksam, beobachtet ihre Umgebung genau und begegnet allem mit einem freundlichen Wesen. Mit anderen Hunden versteht sie sich problemlos, auch Katzen gegenüber zeigt sie ein ausgeglichenes Verhalten. Befindet sich aktuell in Rumänien und darf ausreisen, wenn sie ein Zuhause gefunden hat. Reist gechipt und geimpft (EU Impfpass; Impfungen: Tollwut und Grundimmunisierung). Alle Hunde werden bei ihrer Ankunft im Shelter sowie anschließend mindestens einmal jährlich gegen Darmparasiten und Ektoparasiten behandelt. Die geschilderten Verhaltensbeobachtungen basieren auf dem Alltag im Shelter und können sich in einem häuslichen Umfeld unter veränderten Lebensbedingungen entsprechend anders darstellen. Der Transport (angemeldet mit Traces) wird von uns, so weit es für das Bestimmungsland rechtlich möglich ist, organisiert und durchgeführt. Bitte beachten Sie die Informationen auf dieser Seite:

About Catania

What life with Catania looks like

Catania is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Hope for Future e.V. in Germany.

A 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. Many dogs and cats leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport, but this varies by shelter, so confirm what is included with the shelter.

Frequently asked

Adopting Catania, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Catania?
Use the "View on shelter website" button on this page, which takes you to the shelter's own page. Hope for Future e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Catania on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Catania if I live in another country?
Often, but it depends on the shelter and the countries involved. Some rescues place animals abroad and some only adopt out locally, so ask Hope for Future e.V. whether they will for Catania, what they require (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Catania already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Hope for Future e.V. lists Catania as vaccinated, microchipped and spayed. The adoption fee, and what it covers, is set by Hope for Future e.V., so confirm with them what is included (vaccinations, microchip, sterilization, paperwork) and ask about specific vaccines, recent bloodwork or chronic conditions.
What happens if Catania isn't the right fit?
Many rescues take an animal back if an adoption doesn't work, but policies differ, so ask Hope for Future e.V. about its return policy before you adopt. If things aren't working, talk it through with them early rather than rehoming privately; they know Catania 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.
