Copper

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 3 months

My momma was lying dead on the side of the road one day. We were too young to fend for ourselves. My three siblings and I suddenly had no one. Luckily, we were discovered by friends of Gabriela Glavan. They saw us and didn't want to leave us to our fate. So we were allowed to move into the Help Labus animal shelter. There we are safe and get food, care and the chance for a new life. ❤️ My name is Copper and I'm still a little puppy. I want to leave the sad memories behind and finally experience what it feels like to be loved and have a home of my own. I wish for people who will patiently show me the world, play with me, cuddle me and promise me that I'll never be alone again. 🐶🥰 I didn't have a good start in life - but maybe a beautiful new chapter can begin now. Maybe with you? ❤️

Meine Mama lag eines Tages tot am Straßenrand. Wir waren noch viel zu klein, um allein zurechtzukommen. Meine drei Geschwister und ich hatten plötzlich niemanden mehr. Zum Glück wurden wir von Bekannten von Gabriela Glavan entdeckt. Sie sahen uns und wollten uns nicht unserem Schicksal überlassen. So durften wir ins Tierheim Help Labus ziehen. Dort sind wir in Sicherheit und bekommen Futter, Fürsorge und die Chance auf ein neues Leben. ❤️ Ich heiße Copper und bin noch ein kleiner Welpe. Ich möchte die traurigen Erinnerungen hinter mir lassen und endlich erfahren, wie es sich anfühlt, geliebt zu werden und ein eigenes Zuhause zu haben. Ich wünsche mir Menschen, die mir geduldig die Welt zeigen, mit mir spielen, mich kuscheln und mir versprechen, dass ich nie wieder allein sein muss. 🐶🥰 Ich hatte keinen schönen Start ins Leben – aber vielleicht kann jetzt ein wunderschönes neues Kapitel beginnen. Vielleicht mit dir? ❤️

About Copper

What life with Copper looks like

Copper is a small puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Ein Herz für Fellnasen e.V. in Waakirchen.

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 Copper, answered.

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