Edda

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 9 years

Mixed-breed Edda - 9 years old and ready to experience the good life Edda's life has been far from good. She spent many years on a chain before ending up in a terrible animal shelter in Bulgaria. She has not been able to experience the love, security, and joys of a dog's life. But Edda has kept her zest for life. Her gentle eyes tell of a very special dog - and anyone who sees her videos will immediately recognize how much joy and energy is still in this wonderful dog girl. Edda wants to live, discover, belong, and finally experience how beautiful a home can be. Despite her sad past, Edda is an incredibly friendly, lively, and lovable dog. She is ready to start anew and give her heart away. We wish for her people who will show her that the waiting was worth it and give her the love, security, and comfort she has missed for so long. Edda is 9 years old - but it's not too late for her. On the contrary: maybe the best part of her life is just beginning. A cozy bed, loving people by her side, and many small moments of happiness - that's exactly what we wish for this wonderful dog. Anyone who meets Edda will quickly realize that there is much more to her than her past. She is ready for her new life. Ready to let go, arrive, and finally be happy. Here's Edda's video

Mischling Edda – 9 Jahre und bereit, endlich das schöne Leben kennenzulernen Eddas bisheriges Leben war alles andere als schön. Viele Jahre verbrachte sie an einer Kette, bevor sie schließlich in einem furchtbaren Tierheim in Bulgarien landete. Viel Liebe, Geborgenheit und die schönen Seiten eines Hundelebens durfte sie bisher leider nicht kennenlernen. Doch Edda hat sich ihre Lebensfreude bewahrt. Ihre sanften Augen erzählen von einer ganz besonderen Hündin – und wer ihre Videos sieht, erkennt sofort, wie viel Freude und Energie noch in diesem tollen Hundemädchen steckt. Edda möchte leben, entdecken, dazugehören und endlich erfahren, wie schön ein eigenes Zuhause sein kann. Trotz ihrer traurigen Vergangenheit ist Edda eine unglaublich freundliche, lebensfrohe und liebenswerte Hündin. Sie ist bereit, noch einmal ganz neu durchzustarten und ihr Herz zu verschenken. Wir wünschen uns für sie Menschen, die ihr zeigen, dass sich das Warten gelohnt hat und die ihr die Liebe, Sicherheit und Geborgenheit schenken, die sie so lange vermissen musste. Edda ist 9 Jahre alt – aber für sie ist es noch lange nicht zu spät. Im Gegenteil: Vielleicht beginnt jetzt erst der schönste Abschnitt ihres Lebens. Ein eigenes Körbchen, liebe Menschen an ihrer Seite und ganz viele kleine Glücksmomente – genau das wünschen wir uns für diese wunderbare Hündin. Wer Edda kennenlernt, wird schnell merken, dass in ihr viel mehr steckt als ihre Vergangenheit. Sie ist bereit für ihr neues Leben. Bereit, loszulassen, anzukommen und endlich glücklich zu sein.

About Edda

What life with Edda looks like

Edda is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at SALVA Hundehilfe e.V. in Germany.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇩🇪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 Edda, answered.

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