Kelly

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Adult · 7 years

Kelly, born approximately 2019, neutered, approximately 50 cm shoulder height, in the shelter since approximately 2022. Kelly is one of the many dogs from the public animal shelter Scornicesti who found a refuge thanks to Maria in the shelter. Kelly was originally very people-oriented, but years with little contact have made her more reserved. She withdraws more and more and due to the lack of time it is impossible to help her with the positive experiences she so desperately needs. Stress also leaves its mark and Kelly urgently needs a family where she can finally arrive and lose her excess weight, which she has eaten up out of frustration and boredom. She is very good with other dogs. We wish her a home with experienced and patient people without expectations, who can teach her the dog ABC in peace and show her what a good dog life is. Whoever takes the time for her may experience one or more positive surprises in her development. Currently located in Romania and may leave if a home is found. Travels chipped and vaccinated (EU vaccination passport; vaccinations: rabies and basic immunization). All dogs are treated against intestinal parasites and ectoparasites at their arrival in the shelter and at least once a year thereafter. The described behavioral observations are based on everyday life in the shelter and may be different in a domestic environment under changed living conditions. The transport (registered with Traces) will be organized and carried out by us, as far as legally possible for the destination country. Please note the information on this page:

04/2024 Kelly, geboren ca. 2019, kastriert, ca. 50 cm Schulterhöhe, im Shelter seit ca. 2022 Kelly ist einer der vielen Hunde aus dem öffentlichen Tierheim Scornicesti, die Dank Maria im Shelter eine Zuflucht fanden. Kelly war ursprünglich sehr menschenbezogen, doch die Jahre mit wenig Kontakt haben sie zurückhaltend werden lassen. Sie zieht sich immer mehr zurück und durch die fehlende Zeit ist es unmöglich, ihr zu den positiven Erfahrungen zu verhelfen die sie so dringend bräuchte. Auch der Stress hinterlässt seine Spuren und Kelly bräuchte dringend eine Familie in der sie endlich ankommen darf und ihre überschüssigen Kilos verliert, die sie sich aus Frust und Langeweile angefressen hat. Sie ist sehr gut mit anderen Hunden verträglich. Wir wünschen uns für sie ein Zuhause bei erfahrenen und geduldigen Menschen ohne Erwartungen, die ihr in Ruhe das Hunde ABC beibringen und ihr zeigen, was ein gutes Hundeleben ist. Wer sich dafür Zeit nimmt, wird vielleicht die ein oder andere positive Überraschung in ihrer Entwicklung erleben. Befindet sich aktuell in Rumänien und darf ausreisen, wenn sie 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 Kelly

What life with Kelly looks like

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

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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Kelly, answered.

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