Adopt kleine Puma Privatvermittlung

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Puppy · 7 months

Only 7 months old, yet already so many previous owners. Puma is a 7-month-old Malinois/Dutch German Shepherd mix. Unfortunately, she didn’t get off to a good start in life with humans. She’s already had several previous owners, each of whom gave her up again after just a few days. These experiences have meant that she has barely been able to build any trust in people and is correspondingly insecure. In new encounters, this insecurity sometimes shows itself through distant or defensive reactions. However, with the people she trusts, a completely different side emerges: age-appropriately still a bit boisterous, but fundamentally affectionate and friendly. In her current foster home, intensive work is already underway to help improve her confidence. Nevertheless, it will still be quite a journey before Puma can fully participate without restrictions in everyday life with people and dogs. She currently lives there with another dog and children—this generally works well. However, her insecurity and fear of abandonment are also clearly evident, for example through house-soiling when left alone. We are looking for very experienced dog owners for Puma—people familiar with the breed-typical traits and who possess the patience and understanding to gradually show her, step by step, that interactions with humans can be safe and anxiety-free. Inquiries via WhatsApp. This animal was surrendered to the shelter.

erst 7 Monate jung, aber schon so viele Vorbesitzer Puma ist eine 7 Monate junge Malinois/Niederländischer Schäferhund Mix Puma hatte leider keinen guten Start ins Leben mit uns Menschen. Sie hatte bereits mehrere Vorbesitzer, die sie jeweils nach wenigen Tagen wieder abgegeben haben. Diese Erfahrungen haben dazu geführt, dass sie bisher kaum Vertrauen zu Menschen aufbauen konnte und entsprechend unsicher ist. In neuen Begegnungen zeigt sich diese Unsicherheit manchmal, indem sie distanziert oder abwehrend reagiert. Bei den Menschen, denen sie vertraut, zeigt sich jedoch eine ganz andere Seite: alterstypisch noch etwas ungestüm, aber grundsätzlich lieb und zugewandt. In ihrer aktuellen Pflegestelle wird bereits intensiv mit ihr gearbeitet, um ihre Unsicherheiten zu verbessern. Dennoch ist es noch ein längerer Weg, bis Puma wieder ohne Einschränkungen am normalen Alltag mit Menschen und Hunden teilnehmen kann. Sie lebt dort derzeit mit einem weiteren Hund sowie Kindern zusammen – das funktioniert grundsätzlich gut. Ihre Unsicherheit und Verlustangst äußern sich jedoch auch deutlich, beispielsweise durch Unsauberkeit, wenn sie allein gelassen wird. Für Puma wünschen wir uns sehr erfahrene Hundehalter, die mit den rassetypischen Eigenschaften vertraut sind und die Geduld sowie das Verständnis mitbringen, ihr Schritt für Schritt zu zeigen, dass Begegnungen mit Menschen sicher und angstfrei sein können.

Frequently asked

Adopting kleine Puma Privatvermittlung, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about kleine Puma Privatvermittlung?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Vaihingen handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation.

Can I adopt kleine Puma Privatvermittlung if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Vaihingen 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.

Is kleine Puma Privatvermittlung 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 kleine Puma Privatvermittlung 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 Tierheim Vaihingen early rather than rehoming privately; they know kleine Puma Privatvermittlung 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.
