Hops

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 6 months

Hops, born around mid-May 2026, intact, estimated to reach about 45–50 cm at the shoulder when fully grown. Hops has been with Georgiana since 2026. Hops and two other puppies were abandoned in Romania and left to fend for themselves. Far too young to survive on their own, they had to learn how little a sheltered life with a family can be taken for granted. Fortunately, all three were found in time and could be taken to safety at Georgiana's. Now Hops is waiting there for his very own chance: for people who will show him that the world can be a beautiful, safe place. Despite his difficult start, Hops has kept his cheerful and friendly nature. He shows typical puppy curiosity, openness and sweetness. He greets people warmly, and he gets along well with other dogs and cats. But Hops is still a young dog with his whole life ahead of him. Many things that are second nature to us he has yet to learn: life in a home, walks, rules, everyday noises and, of course, the entire basics of being a dog. For this he needs people who will show him the world with patience, loving consistency and plenty of time. Attending a good dog training school could help Hops learn everything a young dog needs for his future life. At the same time, working together offers a wonderful opportunity to build trust and a close bond. Hops does not wish for a perfect home, but for a home where he can simply arrive. People who give him security, accompany him patiently and allow him the time he needs. A place where the little puppy who was once abandoned can become a happy dog. Whoever gives Hops this chance gets a young, joyful companion with whom countless beautiful chapters can be written. Hops is currently in Romania and may leave the country once he has found a home. He travels microchipped and vaccinated (EU pet passport; vaccinations: rabies and basic immunization). All dogs are treated against intestinal and external parasites upon arrival at the shelter and then at least once a year thereafter. The behavioral observations described are based on daily life at the shelter and may appear different in a domestic environment under changed living conditions. Transport (registered with TRACES) is organized and carried out by us, insofar as it is legally possible for the destination country. Please note the information on this page:

Hops, geboren ca. Mitte Mai 2026, unkastriert, ausgewachsen auf ca. 45-50 cm Schulterhöhe geschätzt, bei Georgiana seit 2026 Hops und zwei weitere Welpen wurden in Rumänien ausgesetzt und einfach ihrem Schicksal überlassen. Viel zu jung, um auf sich allein gestellt zu sein, mussten sie erleben, wie wenig selbstverständlich ein behütetes Hundeleben sein kann. Zum Glück wurden die drei rechtzeitig gefunden und konnten bei Georgiana in Sicherheit gebracht werden. Nun wartet Hops dort auf seine ganz eigene Chance – auf Menschen, die ihm zeigen, dass die Welt auch ein schöner, sicherer Ort sein kann. Hops hat sich trotz seines schwierigen Starts seine fröhliche und freundliche Art bewahrt. Er zeigt sich welpentypisch neugierig, aufgeschlossen und lieb. Menschen begegnet er freundlich und auch mit anderen Hunden und Katzen ist er gut verträglich. Doch Hops ist noch ein kleines Hundekind und hat sein ganzes Leben noch vor sich. Viele Dinge, die für uns selbstverständlich sind, muss er erst kennenlernen: das Leben in einem Zuhause, Spaziergänge, Regeln, Alltagsgeräusche und natürlich das gesamte Hunde-ABC. Dafür braucht er Menschen, die ihm mit Geduld, liebevoller Konsequenz und ganz viel Zeit die Welt zeigen. Der Besuch einer guten Hundeschule könnte Hops dabei unterstützen, all das zu lernen, was ein junger Hund für sein zukünftiges Leben braucht. Gleichzeitig bietet die gemeinsame Arbeit eine wunderbare Möglichkeit, Vertrauen aufzubauen und eine enge Bindung entstehen zu lassen. Hops wünscht sich kein perfektes Zuhause – sondern ein Zuhause, in dem er einfach ankommen darf. Menschen, die ihm Sicherheit geben, ihn geduldig begleiten und ihm die Zeit lassen, die er braucht. Ein Ort, an dem aus dem kleinen Welpen, der einst ausgesetzt wurde, ein glücklicher Hund werden darf. Wer Hops diese Chance schenkt, bekommt einen jungen, lebensfrohen Begleiter, mit dem noch unzählige schöne Kapitel geschrieben werden können. Befindet sich aktuell in Rumänien und darf ausreisen, wenn er 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 Hops

What life with Hops looks like

Hops is a medium-sized puppy mixed breed dog waiting at Hope for Future e.V. in Germany.

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 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 Hops, answered.

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