How do I contact the shelter about Joshua?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. SALVA Hundehilfe e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Joshua on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Joshua if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — SALVA Hundehilfe 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 Joshua 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 Joshua 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 SALVA Hundehilfe e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Joshua 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.

Joshua

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 2 years

Joshua - Charmer looking for his happiness Joshua is still eagerly waiting at the Spanish animal shelter for his permanent home. He is often overlooked, but he is a loving and playful puppy who deserves to finally arrive. Joshua is a friendly guy, open and approachable towards people, and he loves spending time with them. He gets along very well with his dog friends and shows curiosity and enthusiasm. Of course, Joshua still has a lot to learn, but with his intelligent and eager to learn nature, he will make quick progress. We wish for him people who will show him with love, patience and joy how beautiful a dog's life can be. His future family should enjoy teaching him the basics of being a dog and supporting him in becoming a loyal and relaxed companion. Would you like to give this little sunshine a forever home? Then please contact his adoption officer. Joshua would also be very happy about a foster home. Here is Joshua's video

Joshua – Charmeur auf der Suche nach seinem Glück Joshua wartet immer noch sehnsüchtig im spanischen Tierheim auf sein endgültiges Zuhause. Immer wieder wird er übersehen, dabei ist er ein so liebevoller und verspielter Hundejunge, der es verdient hat, endlich anzukommen. Joshua ist ein freundlicher Kerl, offen und aufgeschlossen gegenüber Menschen, und er liebt es, Zeit mit ihnen zu verbringen. Mit seinen Hundekumpels versteht er sich ebenfalls hervorragend und zeigt sich neugierig und lebensfroh. Natürlich muss Joshua noch einiges lernen, aber mit seiner aufgeweckten und lernfreudigen Art wird er schnell Fortschritte machen. Wir wünschen uns für ihn Menschen, die ihm mit Liebe, Geduld und Freude zeigen, wie schön ein Hundeleben sein kann. Seine zukünftige Familie sollte Spaß daran haben, ihm das Hunde-ABC beizubringen und ihn dabei zu unterstützen, ein treuer und entspannter Begleiter zu werden. Möchten Sie dem kleinen Sonnenschein ein Für-immer-Zuhause schenken? Dann melden Sie sich bitte bei seiner Vermittlerin. Auch über eine Pflegestelle würde Joshua sich sehr freuen.

About Joshua

What life with Joshua looks like

Joshua is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at SALVA Hundehilfe e.V. in Germany.

An young 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.
