Esperanza (w)

Mixed Breed · Unknown

The wonderful Esperanza, born on 27.04.22, 52 cm tall, has never lost her hope, which is why she also has this wonderful name. She is young, beautiful, totally loving, but… unfortunately, she is a handicapped dog. Anyone who looks closely can see that she has neurological problems and does not run completely round. A more detailed examination cannot take place in Romania, and thus she sits in the shelter and waits…, for what??? Yes, for a miracle, for a person with a big heart who will help her out. For the day when the caretaker whispers in her ear that she can board the Happyend Bus. For THE day that will never come?!?!? We hope so much that this faithful soul will also get a chance at a beautiful dog life in a loving environment, and so we have no other choice but to present her here and put her in the right light, to finally be seen. She lives in the mixed group and is very compatible, and a cat test could also be done at any time. An opening has been made, you have a name, and with that, nothing can go wrong anymore, or???? Esperanza means hope, and we WILL NEVER lose her and you by sharing her here so that your human can finally find you. Esperanza will be neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, dewormed, and will travel with a Snap test and EU Pass. All our dogs come to Nuremberg and also want to be picked up here.

Die tolle Esperanza, geb. 27.04.22 , 52 cm groß hat nie ihre Hoffnung verloren, deswegen hat sie auch diesen tollen Namen bekommen. Sie ist jung, bildschön, total lieb ,aber…….. eben leider ein Handicaphund. Wer genau hinschaut, sieht, dass sie neurologische Probleme hat, nicht komplett rund läuft. Eine genauere Abklärung kann in Rumänien nicht stattfinden und somit sitzt sie im Shelter und wartet…., auf was??? Ja , auf ein Wunder , auf einen Menschen, der ein großes Herz hat und ihr da raus hilft. Auf den Tag, wo die Pflegerin ihr ins Ohr flüstet, dass sie in den Happyend Bus steigen darf. Auf DEN Tag, der niemals kommen wird?!?!?! Wir hoffen so sehr, dass diese treue Seele auch ihre Chance bekommt auf ein schönes Hundeleben in liebevoller Umgebung und so bleibt uns nichts Anderes, als sie hier vorzustellen und ins rechte Licht zu rücken, um endlich auch gesehen zu werden. Sie lebt in der gemischten Gruppe und ist sehr verträglich, auch ein Katzentest könnte jederzeit gemacht werden. Ein Anfang ist gemacht, Du hast einen Namen und mit dem kann doch gar nichts mehr schief gehen, oder???? Esperanza heißt Hoffnung und genau die werden wir NIEMALS verlieren und Dich hier jetzt fleißig teilen, dass Dein Mensch Dich auch endlich finden kann. Esperanza wird kastriert, geimpft, gechipt, entwurmt und mit Snaptest und EU-Pass ausreisen. Alle unsere Hunde kommen in Nürnberg an und möchten auch hier abgeholt werden.

About Esperanza (w)

What life with Esperanza (w) looks like

Esperanza (w) is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tiernothilfe Casa Katharina e.V. in Nürnberg.

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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Esperanza (w), answered.

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