Drew

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 2 years

Drew - A patient home is needed to help him develop his true personality Drew came to the shelter in July 2026; at that time he was about two years old. The handsome mixed breed was found on the street - he was probably abandoned. Although Drew is still afraid of people, he gets along well with the other dogs in the shelter. During the daily break in the yard, when the dogs leave their small cages for a while, he enjoys running around, exploring his surroundings and showing his curiosity. Drew needs a patient family who understands that trust can only be built step by step. We believe he would greatly benefit from living with another friendly and confident dog; this could help him feel safer in the new environment and teach him the routines of family life. This young male deserves a responsible and loving home where he gets all the time, patience and understanding he needs to build trust and finally enjoy the life that every dog deserves. Taking responsibility for a rescue dog is always a special challenge. Dogs bring a backpack with past experiences or unlearned situations and need time to get used to their new life. Would you like to take on the challenge and give the sweet dog a home? Drew would also be happy with a foster home. Click here for Drew's video

Mischling Drew – Auf der Suche nach einem geduldigen Zuhause, das ihm hilft, seine wahre Persönlichkeit zu entfalten Drew kam im Juli 2026 ins Tierheim; zu diesem Zeitpunkt war er etwa zwei Jahre alt. Der hübsche Mischling wurde auf der Straße gefunden – vermutlich war er ausgesetzt worden. Obwohl Drew noch Angst vor Menschen hat, kommt er gut mit den anderen Hunden im Tierheim zurecht. Während der täglichen Auszeit im Hof, wenn die Hunde ihre kleinen Zwinger für eine Weile verlassen dürfen, genießt er es, herumzulaufen, seine Umgebung zu erkunden und seine Neugier zu zeigen. Drew braucht eine geduldige Familie, die versteht, dass Vertrauen nur Schritt für Schritt aufgebaut werden kann. Wir glauben, dass er sehr davon profitieren würde, mit einem anderen freundlichen und selbstsicheren Hund zusammenzuleben; dieser könnte ihm helfen, sich in der neuen Umgebung sicherer zu fühlen und ihm die Abläufe des Familienlebens beizubringen. Dieser junge Rüde verdient ein verantwortungsvolles und liebevolles Zuhause, in dem er all die Zeit, Geduld und das Verständnis bekommt, die er benötigt, um Vertrauen zu fassen und endlich das Leben zu genießen, das jeder Hund verdient. 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 dem süßen Rüden ein Zuhause schenken? Auch über eine Pflegestelle würde Drew sich freuen. Hier geht’s zu Dres’s Video

About Drew

What life with Drew looks like

Drew is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at SALVA Hundehilfe 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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Drew, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Drew?
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 Drew on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Drew 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Drew 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 Drew 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 Drew 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.
