Finnula

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 2 years

Finnula, born approximately December 2023, spayed, approximately 60 cm shoulder height, at the shelter since February 2024. Recently, our volunteers took Finnula on walks and took beautiful pictures and videos that show what a great dog she is. Finnula did everything wonderfully: she walks nicely on a leash, is attentive and interested in her surroundings. Curious but calm, she explores the world around her. Unfortunately, Finnula's daily life does not always look like this. She spends most of her time in the kennel, although it is clear to her how much she wants to go out. That's why these walks are so valuable for her: finally, movement, variety, new impressions and time with people. Finnula enjoys these moments very much and shows once again what a great dog she is. Finnula is a large, strong and very friendly dog. She shows herself open, approachable and curious to people. She enjoys the contact with our volunteers, is happy about attention and takes pleasure in cuddling. Of course, as a large and strong dog, she also brings corresponding strength, which is why people who are physically up to her and approach her with calmness and loving clarity would be ideal for her. With further positive experiences, Finnula will certainly develop wonderfully. She brings so much kindness, curiosity and joie de vivre - now all she needs is the right home. Her siblings were all allowed to leave, only Finnula is still waiting. When will she finally find her people? Currently in Romania and allowed to leave if a home is found. Travels chipped and vaccinated (EU vaccination passport; vaccinations: rabies and basic immunization). All dogs are treated for intestinal parasites and ectoparasites at the shelter on arrival and at least once a year thereafter. The described behavioral observations are based on everyday life at the shelter and may be different in a domestic environment under changed living conditions. The transport (registered with Traces) will be organized and carried out by us, as far as legally possible for the destination country. Please note the information on this page:

05/2026 Finnula, geboren ca. 12/2023, kastriert, ca. 60 cm Schulterhöhe, im Shelter seit 02/2024 Vor Kurzem waren unsere Volontäre mit Finnula spazieren und haben dabei wunderschöne Bilder und Videos gemacht, die zeigen, was für eine tolle Hündin sie ist. Finnula hat alles ganz wunderbar gemacht: Sie läuft schön an der Leine, ist aufmerksam und interessiert an ihrer Umgebung. Neugierig aber ruhig erkundet sie die Welt um sich herum. Leider sieht Finnulas Alltag nicht immer so aus. Die meiste Zeit verbringt sie im Kennel, obwohl man ihr deutlich anmerkt, wie sehr sie raus möchte. Gerade deshalb sind diese Spaziergänge für sie so wertvoll: endlich Bewegung, Abwechslung, neue Eindrücke und Zeit mit Menschen. Finnula genießt diese Momente sehr und zeigt dabei einmal mehr, was für eine tolle Hündin sie ist. Finnula ist eine große, kräftige und sehr freundliche Hündin. Menschen gegenüber zeigt sie sich aufgeschlossen, zugewandt und neugierig. Sie genießt den Kontakt zu unseren Volontären, freut sich über Aufmerksamkeit und nimmt Kuscheleinheiten gerne an. Natürlich bringt sie als große und kräftige Hündin auch entsprechende Stärke mit, weshalb Menschen, die ihr körperlich gewachsen sind und ihr mit Ruhe und liebevoller Klarheit begegnen, ideal für sie wären. Mit weiteren positiven Erfahrungen wird Finnula sich ganz sicher wunderbar entwickeln. Sie bringt so viel Freundlichkeit, Neugier und Lebensfreude mit – nun fehlt ihr nur noch das passende Zuhause. Ihre Geschwister durften bereits alle ausreisen, nur Finnula wartet noch. Wann findet auch sie endlich ihre Menschen? Befindet sich aktuell in Rumänien und darf ausreisen, wenn sie ein Zuhause gefunden hat. Reist gechipt und geimpft (EU Impfpass; Impfungen: Tollwut und Grundimmunisierung). Alle Hunde werden bei ihrer Ankunft im Shelter sowie anschließend mindestens einmal jährlich gegen Darmparasiten und Ektoparasiten behandelt. Die geschilderten Verhaltensbeobachtungen basieren auf dem Alltag im Shelter und können sich in einem häuslichen Umfeld unter veränderten Lebensbedingungen entsprechend anders darstellen. Der Transport (angemeldet mit Traces) wird von uns, so weit es für das Bestimmungsland rechtlich möglich ist, organisiert und durchgeführt. Bitte beachten Sie die Informationen auf dieser Seite:

About Finnula

What life with Finnula looks like

Finnula is a large young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Hope for Future e.V. in Germany.

A young 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 Finnula, answered.

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