Imani

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy · 3 months

Imani is a little dog girl who has already experienced too much fear in her short life. She was abandoned with her mom and four siblings on a street with heavy truck traffic. 😢💔 We were suddenly alone and didn't know what would happen to us. The big trucks thundered past us - too dangerous for us little puppies. My mom tried to protect us and stay with us. She must have been scared herself, but she was there for us. ❤️🐶 Luckily, we were rescued and brought to the animal shelter. Now we are safe and cared for. I am incredibly grateful for that. 🙏 But I dream of something very special: a home of my own. 🏡❤️ I want to experience what a dog's life can be like. I want to play, run, cuddle and learn a lot of new things. I want a person I can trust and who loves me forever. I am still so small and have my whole life ahead of me. Please don't let my story end in a shelter. Let it begin here - with my journey to a loving home. 🥺🐾 Maybe you are the person I've been waiting for? Then please give me a chance. I promise you, I will put my little dog heart firmly in your hands. ❤️ Your Imani 🐶💕

🐾 Hallo, ich bin Imani ❤️ Ich bin noch ein kleines Hundemädchen und hatte schon viel zu viel Angst in meinem kurzen Leben. Meine Mama wurde gemeinsam mit mir und meinen vier Geschwistern an einer stark von Lastwagen befahrenen Straße ausgesetzt. 😢💔 Wir waren plötzlich ganz allein und wussten nicht, was mit uns passieren würde. Um uns herum donnerten die großen Lastwagen vorbei – viel zu gefährlich für uns kleine Hundekinder. Meine Mama hat versucht, uns zu beschützen und bei uns zu bleiben. Sie hatte bestimmt selbst große Angst, aber sie war für uns da. ❤️🐶 Zum Glück wurden wir gerettet und ins Tierheim gebracht. Dort sind wir nun in Sicherheit und werden versorgt. Dafür bin ich unendlich dankbar. 🙏 Aber ich träume von etwas ganz Besonderem: einem eigenen Zuhause. 🏡❤️ Ich möchte endlich erleben, wie schön ein Hundeleben sein kann. Ich möchte spielen, toben, kuscheln und ganz viel Neues lernen. Ich möchte einen Menschen haben, dem ich vertrauen kann und der mich für immer lieb hat. Ich bin noch so klein und habe mein ganzes Leben vor mir. Bitte lass meine Geschichte nicht mit einem Tierheim enden. Lass sie hier beginnen – mit meiner Reise in ein liebevolles Zuhause. 🥺🐾 Vielleicht bist du der Mensch, auf den ich gewartet habe? Dann schenk mir bitte eine Chance. Ich verspreche dir, ich werde mein kleines Hundeherz ganz fest in deine Hände legen. ❤️ Deine Imani 🐶💕

About Imani

What life with Imani looks like

Imani is a large puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Ein Herz für Fellnasen e.V. in Waakirchen.

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. 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 Imani, answered.

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