Adopt Elba

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy · 5 months

Vaccination + Rabies Elba, the darling dog, is looking for her forever bed! This beautiful girl is 1.5 years old, microchipped, vaccinated, and neutered. In 38368 Grasleben with her loving foster family, she is waiting for her forever bed. Her previous life was spent on the Anchorhunde Ranch in Bosnia. Since puppyhood, she waited there, but her gentle and reserved nature made her hard to notice. On March 14, she was finally able to travel to a foster home to get a chance at a home. Currently, she lives problem-free with a female dog and is already house-trained. Once she trusts, she loves her people very much. She especially enjoys cuddling on the sofa. As Elba has never been outside of the animal shelter before, leashes and walks are still completely new to her. Right now, she is being worked on patiently and gently, and she is making small but steady progress. For this wonderful rough diamond, we are looking for a home with understanding people who can give her time to settle in, who bring patience, understanding, and love. Elba wants to be seen finally. Will you give her a chance?

Grundimmunisierung + Tollwut Die so liebe Elba sucht ihr für immer Körbchen! Das wunderschöne Mädchen ist 1,5 Jahre alt, gechipt,geimpft und kastriert. In 38368 Grasleben bei ihrer lieben Pflegefamilie, wartet sie auf ihr Körbchen für immer Ihr bisheriges Leben hat sie auf der Ankerhunde-Ranch in Bosnien verbracht. Seit Welpenalter wartete sie dort, doch ihre sanfte und zurückhaltende Art ließ sie unsichtbar werden. Am 14. März durfte sie dann auf eine Pflegestelle reisen um endlich eine Chance auf ein zu Hause zu bekommen. Zur Zeit lebt sie problemlos mit einer Hündin zusammen und ist bereits Stubenrein. Einmal vertrauen gefasst, liebt sie ihre Menschen sehr. Kuscheln auf dem Sofa findet sie besonders toll. Da Elba zuvor nie außerhalb des Tierheims unterwegs war, sind Leine und Spaziergänge noch völlig neu für sie. Es wird momentan geduldig und behutsam daran gearbeitet und sie macht kleine aber stetige Fortschritte. Für diesen tollen Rohdiamanten suchen wir ein verständnisvolles zu Hause bei Menschen die ihr Zeit geben zum ankommen, die Geduld, Verständnis und Liebe mitbringen. Elba möchte endlich gesehen werden Gibst du ihr eine Chance? Anfrage für Elba stellen

About Elba

What life with Elba looks like

Elba is a small puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Ankerhunde e.V. in Novi Grad.

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 Bosnia and Herzegovina

The shelter typically completes the animal's vaccinations, microchipping, and pet passport before adoption. Specific fees and process details vary by shelter and country — confirm directly via the contact details in the sidebar.

Frequently asked

Adopting Elba, answered.

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