Adopt LAVINIA

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy · 11 months

LAVINIA – little joy on four paws with eyes like amber❣ I am LAVINIA – the little puppy that catches your eye. Not because of my size (I am more of a "handy" size), but because of my amber eyes, which look like someone has hidden two tiny suns inside them. I was found alone on the street. I have no idea how I ended up there – maybe I wanted to explore the world, maybe it was just bad luck. But I was discovered before anything bad could happen. Since then, I know: Life means well by me. My official birthday is July 4, 2025 – a date I would love to celebrate with you every day. I am small, which means: Mini-format with Maxi-charm. Inside me lies a joyful, curious, lively puppy. I love people, I like other dogs, and I find almost everything that moves, smells, or makes noise exciting. I am like a little whirlwind – but one who knows when it's time to snuggle up to you. And I am ready for my big adventure: my own home. I wish for people who laugh, who like to go for walks, who show me the world and hug me when I don't know what to do. I want to learn, grow, sometimes make a fool of myself, sleep, play – and do all of this with you. If you are looking for a small female dog who puts a smile on your face every day, then I could be the perfect match. I am LAVINIA – and I bring amber eyes, joy for life, and a whole lot of heart.

LAVINIA – kleines Glück auf vier Pfoten mit Augen wie Bernsteine❣ Ich bin LAVINIA – das Hundemädchen, das man nicht übersieht. Nicht wegen meiner Größe (ich bin eher Team „handlich“), sondern wegen meiner bernsteinfarbenen Augen, die aussehen, als hätte jemand zwei kleine Sonnen darin versteckt. Gefunden wurde ich allein auf der Straße. Keine Ahnung, wie ich dort gelandet bin – vielleicht wollte ich die Welt erkunden, vielleicht war es einfach Pech. Aber man hat mich entdeckt, bevor etwas Schlimmes passieren konnte. Seitdem weiß ich: Das Leben meint es gut mit mir. Mein offizieller Geburtstag ist der 04.07.2025 – ein Datum, das ich gern immer mit dir feiern würde. Ich bin klein, das bedeutet: Mini‑Format mit Maxi‑Charme. In mir steckt ein fröhliches, neugieriges, lebenslustiges Hundekind. Ich liebe Menschen, ich mag andere Hunde, und ich finde eigentlich alles spannend, was sich bewegt, duftet oder Geräusche macht. Ich bin wie ein kleiner Wirbelwind – aber einer, der weiß, wann es Zeit ist, sich an dich zu kuscheln. Und ich bin bereit für mein großes Abenteuer: Mein eigenes Zuhause. Ich wünsche mir Menschen, die lachen, die gern spazieren gehen, die mir die Welt zeigen und mich gleichzeitig in den Arm nehmen, wenn ich mal nicht weiterweiß. Ich möchte lernen, wachsen, auch mal Quatsch machen, schlafen, spielen – und das alles mit dir. Wenn du eine kleine Hündin suchst, die dir jeden Tag ein Lächeln ins Gesicht zaubert, dann könnte ich genau die Richtige sein. Ich bin LAVINIA – und ich bringe Bernsteinaugen, Lebensfreude und ganz viel Herz mit.

About LAVINIA

What life with LAVINIA looks like

LAVINIA is a small puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Ein Herz für Fellnasen e.V. in Waakirchen.

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. 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 LAVINIA, answered.

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