Lada

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy

Lada - a small fighter's heart seeking trust and security! Location: Animal shelter in Osijek, Croatia Birthdate: 03.02.2026 Shoulder height: 35-40 cm / 9 kg Previously no children met Cat compatibility unknown Single or second dog Ideal environment: suburban, rural Suitable for: ambitious dog beginners Direct to self-disclosure Lada is a female dog who has already experienced a lot in her young life. The pretty dog was on the street for a long time and had to somehow get by on her own. Finally, our animal protectors were notified to bring the little stray to safety. Since then, a lot has changed for Lada. She was lovingly cared for, cared for, and can now slowly experience that people do not only mean danger, but also security. And the best part? Lada is gaining more and more trust! Her name comes from Slavic and is associated with love, beauty and harmony in mythology. A beautiful thought for a dog who is just learning how to feel like life in safety. Optically, Lada could well be a hunting dog mix. Her athletic appearance and her pretty floppy ears at least suggest this. If there is actually a hunting dog in her, she may also bring corresponding predispositions. Hunting dogs were bred over generations for tasks where endurance, a fine nose, independence and cooperation with humans were in demand. Therefore, we wish for Lada people who enjoy joint activities, extensive sniffing rounds and meaningful occupation. Whether and how pronounced she will later show hunting behavior will of course have to be shown. Above all, Lada needs people with patience, empathy and understanding. People who give her time to arrive and do not overburden her with expectations. A quiet, reliable environment and a loving, clear accompaniment will help her become more confident step by step. Lada has had to fight for herself for a long time. Now all she needs is someone who shows her that she doesn't have to walk her way alone anymore. Who gives Lada the chance for a new chapter?

Lange Zeit war die hübsche Hündin auf der Straße unterwegs und musste sich irgendwie allein durchschlagen. Schließlich wurden unsere Tierschützerinnen verständigt, um die kleine Streunerin in Sicherheit zu bringen. Seitdem hat sich für Lada einiges verändert. Sie wurde liebevoll aufgepäppelt, versorgt und darf nun langsam erfahren, dass Menschen nicht nur Gefahren, sondern auch Geborgenheit bedeuten können. Und das Schönste daran? Lada fasst immer mehr Vertrauen! Ihr Name stammt aus dem Slawischen und wird in der Mythologie mit Liebe, Schönheit und Harmonie verbunden. Ein schöner Gedanke für eine Hündin, die gerade erst lernt, wie sich ein Leben in Sicherheit anfühlen kann. Optisch könnte in Lada durchaus ein Jagdhund-Mischling stecken. Ihre sportliche Erscheinung und ihre hübschen Schlappohren lassen zumindest darauf schließen. Sollte tatsächlich Jagdhund in ihr stecken, bringt sie möglicherweise auch entsprechende Veranlagungen mit. Jagdhunde wurden über Generationen für Aufgaben gezüchtet, bei denen Ausdauer, eine feine Nase, Eigenständigkeit und die Zusammenarbeit mit dem Menschen gefragt waren. Deshalb wünschen wir uns für Lada Menschen, die Freude an gemeinsamen Unternehmungen, ausgiebigen Schnüffelrunden und sinnvoller Beschäftigung haben. Ob und wie ausgeprägt sie später Jagdverhalten zeigen wird, muss sich natürlich erst herausstellen. Vor allem aber braucht Lada Menschen mit Geduld, Einfühlungsvermögen und Verständnis. Menschen, die ihr Zeit geben, anzukommen, und sie nicht mit Erwartungen überfordern. Ein ruhiges, verlässliches Umfeld und eine liebevolle, klare Begleitung werden ihr helfen, Schritt für Schritt selbstbewusster zu werden. Lada hat lange genug allein für sich kämpfen müssen. Jetzt fehlt ihr nur noch jemand, der ihr zeigt, dass sie ihren Weg nicht mehr alleine gehen muss.

About Lada

What life with Lada looks like

Lada is a small puppy mixed breed dog waiting at Nordic Strays e.V. in Germany.

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. Many dogs and cats leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport, but this varies by shelter, so confirm what is included with the shelter.

Frequently asked

Adopting Lada, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Lada?
Use the "View on shelter website" button on this page, which takes you to the shelter's own page. Nordic Strays e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Lada on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Lada if I live in another country?
Often, but it depends on the shelter and the countries involved. Some rescues place animals abroad and some only adopt out locally, so ask Nordic Strays e.V. whether they will for Lada, what they require (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 Lada already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Nordic Strays e.V. lists Lada as vaccinated and microchipped. The adoption fee, and what it covers, is set by Nordic Strays e.V., so confirm with them what is included (vaccinations, microchip, sterilization, paperwork) and ask about specific vaccines, recent bloodwork or chronic conditions.
What happens if Lada isn't the right fit?
Many rescues take an animal back if an adoption doesn't work, but policies differ, so ask Nordic Strays e.V. about its return policy before you adopt. If things aren't working, talk it through with them early rather than rehoming privately; they know Lada 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.
