Ina

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 14 years

♀, born ca. 2014 - people-oriented - sweet - social In Spain June is 12 years old – a tiny, delicate female dog with only 25 cm height and 2 kg weight. And yet she carries something very big inside: the quiet desire to find her place again. Her world has suddenly changed. June was just taken from the animal shelter because her owner unfortunately passed away. June can't be blamed for her familiar life being torn apart in an instant. She doesn't need any fuss or high expectations now – she needs one thing above all: a safe place where she is loved and feels secure. We are not looking for just "any" adoption for June. We sincerely wish that she can spend the last years of her life happily, with a new dog mom who sees her as she is: small, gentle and vulnerable, but full of feelings and ready to bond again. Someone who doesn't see her as "old", but as a gift – as a quiet companion who values closeness, needs warmth and makes everyday life calmer and easier in her own special way with her presence. June should not lose out anymore. She should be able to arrive at a home where she is taken care of, where someone picks her up when she seeks closeness, puts a soft bed for her and shows her: You are safe now. You are loved now. If you would like to give this little dog a loving home, we would be very happy about a message. June will be vaccinated and microchipped before being adopted and is waiting in a private foster home in Spain for her big luck. Would you like to offer June a suitable home? Then please contact us via the following contact form. ©2022 by Ein Freund fürs Leben e.V. Created with Wix.com

♀, geb. ca. 2012menschenbezogen - lieb - sozialin 10247 Berlin Ina ist 14 Jahre alt – eine kleine, zarte Hündin mit gerade einmal 28 cm. Größe und ca. 5 kg. Gewicht. Und doch trägt sie etwas ganz Großes in sich: den stillen Wunsch, noch einmal richtig anzukommen. Ihre Welt hat sich plötzlich verändert. Ina wurde gerade aus dem Tierheim abgeholt, weil ihre Besitzerin leider verstorben ist. Ina kann nichts dafür, dass ihr vertrautes Leben von einem Moment auf den anderen weggebrochen ist. Sie braucht jetzt keinen Trubel und keine großen Erwartungen – sie braucht vor allem eins: einen sicheren Platz, an dem sie geliebt wird und sich geborgen fühlen darf. Wir suchen für Ina nicht einfach „irgendeine“ Adoption. Wir wünschen uns von Herzen, dass sie ihre letzten Lebensjahre glücklich verbringen darf, bei einer neuen Hundemama, die sie sieht, wie sie ist: klein, sanft und schutzbedürftig, aber voller Gefühl und bereit, sich noch einmal zu binden. Jemanden, der sie nicht als „alt“ betrachtet, sondern als Geschenk – als leise Begleiterin, die Nähe schätzt, Wärme braucht und mit ihrer Anwesenheit den Alltag auf eine ganz besondere Art ruhiger und leichter macht. Ina soll nicht mehr verlieren müssen. Sie soll ankommen dürfen, in einem Zuhause, in dem sie umsorgt wird, in dem man sie auf den Arm nimmt, wenn sie Nähe sucht, ihr ein weiches Körbchen hinstellt und ihr zeigt: Du bist jetzt sicher. Du bist jetzt geliebt. Wenn du dieser kleinen Hündin ein liebevolles Zuhause schenken möchtest, freuen wir uns sehr über eine Nachricht. Ina wird geimpft und gechipt vermittelt und wartet in einer Pflegestelle in 10247 Berlin auf ihr großes Glück. Sie ist nicht kastriert. Sie möchten Ina ein passendes Zuhause bieten?

About Ina

What life with Ina looks like

Ina is a large senior mixed breed dog waiting at Ein Freund fürs Leben e.V. in Berlin.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇩🇪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 Ina, answered.

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