Adopt Honey

Mixed Breed · Female

compatibility with others: Very compatible with fellow animals. Current location: Auffangstation in Kostinbrod (Bulgaria) Honey has been waiting far too long in a shelter in Bulgaria for her luck to change. Her name is Program: She is a thoroughly lovable soul – friendly, cuddly, and full of longing for human companionship. When she is stroked, she closes her eyes and enjoys every moment as if she knows how precious affection is. She understands her fellow animals wonderfully. She is sociable, peaceful, and a uncomplicated companion for two- and four-legged friends. Despite the long time in the shelter, Honey has kept her openness and trust in humans – life behind bars has not soured her. But a shelter is not a home. Honey deserves a warm dog bed, a family that loves her, and the certainty that she has finally arrived. Every day she hopes that someone will come for her. Maybe you are the person who will show her that waiting was worth it. Honey travels vaccinated, microchipped, neutered, and tested negative for Mediterranean diseases. Gets along with other dogs.

Verträglichkeit: Sehr verträglich mit Artgenossen. Derzeitiger Aufenthaltsort: Auffangstation in Kostinbrod (Bulgarien) Honey wartet schon viel zu lange in einem Shelter in Bulgarien auf ihr Glück. Ihr Name ist Programm: Sie ist eine durch und durch liebenswerte Seele – zutraulich, verschmust und voller Sehnsucht nach menschlicher Nähe. Wenn man sie streichelt, schließt sie die Augen und genießt jeden Moment, als wüsste sie, wie kostbar Zuneigung ist. Mit ihren Artgenossen versteht sie sich wunderbar. Sie ist sozial, friedlich und eine unkomplizierte Begleiterin für Zwei- und Vierbeiner. Trotz der langen Zeit im Shelter hat Honey ihre Offenheit und ihr Vertrauen in Menschen bewahrt – das Leben hinter Gittern hat sie nicht verbittert. Doch ein Shelter ist kein Zuhause. Honey verdient ein warmes Körbchen, eine Familie, die sie liebt, und die Gewissheit, dass sie endlich angekommen ist. Jeden Tag hofft sie, dass jemand für sie kommt. Vielleicht bist du dieser Mensch, der ihr zeigt, dass sich das Warten gelohnt hat. Honey reist geimpft, gechipt, kastriert und negativ auf Mittelmeerkrankheiten getestet aus.

About Honey

What life with Honey looks like

Honey is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Pföttchenretter mit Herz e.V. in Leichlingen.

An 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. 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 Honey, answered.

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