Adopt Lena

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

LENA – a little fighter with a big heart is looking for her home 🐾 Lena is a young female dog (born 02.02.2025), who, despite her difficult start in life, has not lost her love for life. She was abandoned in a village and now waits to finally be seen. The approximately 18 kg mixed-breed female dog is a playful, cheerful puppy girl – a real little whirlwind who is simultaneously incredibly cuddly and affectionate. She gets along well with other dogs, whether male or female, and enjoys every bit of attention she receives. Lena shows herself to be friendly, social, and open to her surroundings. She brings everything one could wish for in a loyal companion – now she just needs a home where she can arrive and receive the love she so deserves. Who will give this wonderful soul a second chance?

LENA – kleine Kämpferin mit großem Herzen sucht ihr Zuhause 🐾 Lena ist eine junge Hündin (geb. 02.02.2025), die trotz ihres schwierigen Starts ins Leben ihre Lebensfreude nicht verloren hat. Sie wurde in einem Dorf ausgesetzt und wartet nun darauf, endlich gesehen zu werden.

Sie versteht sich hervorragend mit anderen Hunden, egal ob Rüde oder Hündin, und genießt jede Aufmerksamkeit, die sie bekommt. Lena zeigt sich freundlich, sozial und offen gegenüber ihrer Umwelt. Sie bringt alles mit, was man sich von einer treuen Begleiterin wünscht – jetzt fehlt ihr nur noch ein Zuhause, in dem sie ankommen darf und die Liebe bekommt, die sie so sehr verdient.

About Lena

What life with Lena looks like

Lena is a large young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Fellnasen Stuttgart e.V. in Stuttgart.

An young 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 Lena, answered.

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