Cupid

Podenco · Female · Adult · 5 years

Podenco mixed breed Cupid is simply a loving soul. Cupid came to our partner shelter during the flood period in Andalusia. We don't know what she experienced in the days before. Consequently, she initially showed herself to be shy and wary, having to process all the impressions first. After settling in a bit, she now enjoys friendly affection, cuddles, and a few treats from the local volunteers. Cupid is a loving female dog in the perfect age for a new beginning. Her wild youth is behind her, and as a Podenco mix, she still has many, many hopefully happy years ahead. Once in Germany, she might learn a few things and understand the structures in her new home, but experience tells us that this happens quite quickly with good guidance. A foster home would also be great for Cupid, as long as she can soon trade her dreary cage life for a soft dog bed and kind care. Do you have a place free for this lovely female dog? Cupid is directly ready to travel and fully prepared for her great dog happiness.

DE·Show original

Podenco Cupid befindet sich inzwischen in Deutschland-Update folgt. Podenco Mischling Cupid ist einfach eine liebe Seele. Cupid kam in der Zeit des Hochwassers in Andalusien in unser Partnertierheim. Was sie in den Tagen davor erleben musste, wissen wir nicht. Dementsprechend zeigte sie sich zunächst schüchtern und scheu, da sie erst einmal alle Eindrücke verarbeiten musste. Nachdem sie ein wenig angekommen ist, freut sie sich jetzt über freundliche Zuwendung, Streicheleinheiten und ein paar Leckerlis von den Freiwilligen vor Ort. Cupid ist eine liebe Hündin im besten Alter für einen Neuanfang. Die wilden Jugendjahre hat sie hinter sich und als Podencomischling noch viele viele hoffentlich glückliche Jahre vor sich. Einmal in Deutschland angekommen, wird sie vielleicht das eine oder andere noch lernen und die Strukturen in ihrem neuen Zuhause verstehen müssen, aber erfahrungsgemäß geht das mit guter Anleitung recht schnell. Auch eine Pflegestelle wäre für Cupid toll, Hauptsache sie darf bald den tristen Zwingeralltag gegen ein weiches Körbchen und freundliche Fürsorge eintauschen. Haben Sie einen Platz frei für diese liebenswerte Hündin? Cupid ist direkt ausreisebereit und startklar für ihr großes Hundeglück. Hier gehts zu Cupids Video

About Cupid

What life with Cupid looks like

Cupid is a large 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. 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 Cupid, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Cupid?
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 Cupid on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Cupid 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 Cupid 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 Cupid 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 Cupid 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.
