Cherry

English Bulldog · Female · Adult · 6 years

Cherry is finally searching for her big break – a home where she can arrive and stay forever. The charming Bulldog mix is about 8 years old, around 50 cm tall, and currently weighs about 25 kg. Her life before coming to the shelter about four years ago was far from easy. She had to struggle on the streets. Many years of hardship lie behind her. We now wish for people who can show Cherry how beautiful a dog's life can be and are happy that Cherry was able to move into one of our German foster homes. Despite everything she has experienced, Cherry has not lost her big heart for people. She is extremely loving, gentle, and affectionate and enjoys every attention and every caress. At home, she proves to be a pleasant and quiet roommate. She has grown to love her soft bed, and she also masters car rides quite relaxed. For her new home, we wish for a single place, because Cherry no longer wants to share her people and her home with another dog. After all the years of sacrifice, she just wants to have everything for herself. Encounters with other dogs outside and joint walks are no problem, however. She gets along well with friendly children who are already a bit older and understand that Cherry sometimes gets a bit too enthusiastic about affection. Cherry still needs to learn some basic obedience, but she wants to please and will surely make progress quickly with loving, consistent guidance. Since she currently carries a few extra pounds, regular walks and a bit of exercise will help her regain her ideal weight soon. A loving home with a securely fenced garden would be Cherry's greatest happiness. People with patience, heart, and understanding will find in her a loyal, grateful, and affectionate companion who finally wants to experience what life feels like with security and love. 🟢Interested?

Cherry sucht endlich ihr ganz großes Glück – ein Zuhause, in dem sie ankommen und für immer bleiben darf. Die bezaubernde Bulldog-Mischlingshündin ist etwa 8 Jahre alt, ca. 50 cm groß und bringt derzeit rund 25 kg auf die Waage. Ihr bisheriges Leben war alles andere als schön: Bevor sie vor rund vier Jahren ins Tierheim kam, musste sie sich auf der Straße durchschlagen. Viele entbehrungsreiche Jahre liegen hinter ihr. Umso mehr wünschen wir uns nun Menschen, die Cherry zeigen, wie schön ein Hundeleben sein kann und freuen uns dass Cherry auf eine unserer deutschen Pflegestellen ziehen konnte. Trotz allem, was sie erlebt hat, hat Cherry ihr großes Herz für Menschen nicht verloren. Sie ist ausgesprochen liebevoll, sanft und verschmust und genießt jede Aufmerksamkeit und jede Streicheleinheit. Im Haus zeigt sie sich als angenehme und ruhige Mitbewohnerin. Das weiche Körbchen hat sie inzwischen lieben gelernt, und auch Autofahrten meistert sie ganz entspannt. Für ihr neues Zuhause wünschen wir uns einen Einzelplatz, denn Cherry möchte ihre Menschen und ihr Zuhause nicht mehr mit einem anderen Hund teilen. Nach all den Jahren des Verzichts möchte sie einfach einmal alles für sich haben. Begegnungen mit anderen Hunden draußen und gemeinsame Spaziergänge sind hingegen problemlos möglich. Mit freundlichen Kindern, die bereits etwas älter sind und verstehen, dass Cherry sich manchmal etwas stürmisch über Zuwendung freut, kommt sie gut zurecht. Cherry muss noch etwas Grundgehorsam lernen, doch sie möchte gefallen und wird mit liebevoller, konsequenter Führung sicher schnell Fortschritte machen. Da sie derzeit ein paar Kilo zu viel mit sich herumträgt, werden regelmäßige Spaziergänge und ein wenig Bewegung ihr dabei helfen, bald wieder ihre Wohlfühlfigur zu erreichen. Ein liebevolles Zuhause mit einem sicher eingezäunten Garten wäre für Cherry das größte Glück. Menschen mit Geduld, Herz und Verständnis werden in ihr eine treue, dankbare und anhängliche Begleiterin finden, die endlich erfahren möchte, wie sich ein Leben voller Geborgenheit und Liebe anfühlt. 🟢Interesse?

About Cherry

What life with Cherry looks like

Cherry is a large adult english bulldog dog waiting at Notfellchen Rumänien e.V. in Germany.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 Cherry, answered.

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