Lea-Marie Race: Mix Birth: 09/2020 Size: 40 cm Temperament: Adorable, cheerful, active, curious, gets along with everyone, lovable Origin: Found on the street Special features: Puppy growing, born without knee joints, not operable, pain-free Partner organization: CELO Location: Portugal EU pet passport, fully vaccinated, dewormed, chipped Fees: 530 EUR Categories: Female dogs, Portugal, Problem dogs Description Sometimes you wonder if there is a plan behind the phenomena of nature or if they are just pure coincidence. Our heart's girl Lea-Marie is one such case. This sweet little dog girl, who is full of life and joy to the point that you immediately get good mood just by looking at the photos or videos, was actually born without knee joints. And as if that wasn't crazy enough, the little mouse is neither impressed nor stopped by it. Admittedly, the back of the pretty young lady reminds a little of a weasel. But only in terms of movement. Because Lea-Marie "functions" front and back like any other dog. She should (like any other dog) not become too fat and if you want to run a marathon every day, you should do it without her. Whether one ever understands the meaning of such special features remains uncertain. But it is certain that Lea-Marie's appearance opens your heart. So if your heart is wide open, then write us an email to or fill out the interest form on our homepage and give this extraordinary magic mouse a very special home. Additional information: Birth year 2020, shoulder height 40-50 cm. Similar products: SOFIE MOLLY GRIZZY

PITUCHA6. April 2021NILO29. Juni 2021 LEA MARIA Rasse: Mischling geboren: 09/2020 Größe: 40 cm Wesen: zuckersüß, fröhlich, aktiv, neugierig, mit jedem verträglich, liebenswert Herkunft: auf der Straße gefunden Besonderheiten: Welpe im Wachstum, ohne Kniegelenke geboren, nicht operabel, schmerzfrei Partnerverein: CELO Aufenthaltsort: Portugal EU-Heimtierausweis, komplett geimpft, entwurmt, gechipt Auslagengebühr: 530 EUR Kategorien: Hündinnen, In Portugal, Sorgenkinder Share0 Beschreibung Hin und wieder fragt man sich ja schon, ob hinter den Phänomenen der Natur ein Plan steckt oder ob sie einfach reiner Zufall sind. Unser Herzensmädchen Lea-Marie ist z. B. so ein Fall. Da wird dieses zuckersüße Hundemädchen, das bis zum Anschlag so voller Lebensfreude und Fröhlichkeit steckt, dass man beim bloßen Betrachten der Fotos bzw. Filmchen sofort selbst gute Laune bekommt, doch tatsächlich ohne Kniegelenke geboren. Und als wäre das nicht schon verrückt genug, lässt sich die kleine Maus davon auch noch weder beeindrucken noch stoppen. Zugegeben, das Heck der hübschen jungen Dame erinnert ein kleines bisschen an ein Wiesel. Aber nur bewegungstechnisch. Denn Lea-Marie „funktioniert“ vorne wie hinten wie jeder andere Hund. Sie sollte (wie übrigens auch jeder andere Hund) nicht zu dick werden und wer täglich einen Marathon laufen möchte, der sollte das ohne sie tun. Ob sich nun einem je der Sinn solcher Besonderheiten erschließen wird, bleibt ungewiss. Sicher ist aber, dass einem bei Lea-Maries Anblick das Herz aufgeht. Wenn Ihres jetzt also sperrangelweit offensteht, dann schreiben Sie uns doch eine mail an die oder füllen Sie den Interessentenbogen auf unserer Homepage aus und schenken Sie dieser außergewöhnlichen Zaubermaus ein ganz besonders schönes Zuhause.

About lea

What life with lea looks like

lea is an adult mixed breed dog waiting at HOPE 4 FRIENDS e.V. in Sulzfeld.

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 lea, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about lea?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. HOPE 4 FRIENDS e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw lea on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt lea if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — HOPE 4 FRIENDS 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 lea 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 lea 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 4 FRIENDS e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know lea 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.
