Leila

Mixed Breed · Unknown

Leila is a very friendly, lovable, affectionate, active-sporty girl dog who is looking for a loving home - with people who fit her and her needs. Unfortunately, this was not the case in her first home: an older couple had received Leila as a gift. This was not a good idea, because Leila was young and her playfulness and temperament did not match the lifestyle of the donors. So they - out of helplessness - kept Leila in a shed behind the house. Understandably, the young female dog was "out of control" every time she had free run and chased the cats out of exuberance, as her overwhelmed owners reported. Probably they gave up the sweet Leila when she got a life-threatening uterine inflammation. It was a great luck for the female dog that she was taken in by the animal shelter, where she was medically cared for and healed. Now she has the chance for a happy, dog-friendly, loving home. The non-dog-friendly upbringing in her first home has left no negative psychological scars. © 2006-2026 by Tierschutzverein Europa e.V. - All rights reserved

DE·Show original

Leila ist ein sehr freundliches, liebenswertes, anhängliches, aktiv-sportliches Hundemädchen, die ein liebevolles Zuhause sucht – bei Menschen, die zu ihr und ihren Bedürfnissen passen. Das war in ihrem ersten Zuhause leider nicht so: ein älteres Paar hatte Leila als Geschenk bekommen. Das war keine gute Idee, denn Leila war jung und ihre Bewegungs- und Spielfreude sowie ihr Temperament entsprachen so gar nicht der Lebensweise der Beschenkten. So hielten sie – aus Hilflosigkeit – Leila in einem Verschlag hinter dem Haus. Verständlicherweise war die junge Hündin jedes Mal, wenn sie Freilauf hatte, „außer Rand und Band“ und jagte aus Übermut die Katzen, so berichteten ihre überforderten Eigentümer. Vermutlich gaben sie die süße Leila ab, als sie eine lebensgefährliche Gebärmutterentzündung bekam. Es war für die Hündin ihr großes Glück, dass sie im Tierheim aufgenommen wurde, wo sie medizinisch versorgt und geheilt wurde. Nun hat sie die Chance auf ein glückliches, hundefreundliches, liebevolles Zuhause. Die nicht hundegerechte Haltung in ihrem ersten Zuhause hat bei ihr keine negativen seelischen Spuren hinterlassen. © 2006-2026 by Tierschutzverein Europa e.V. - All rights reserved

About Leila

What life with Leila looks like

Leila is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein Europa in München.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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. 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 Leila, answered.

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