Lena

Mixed Breed · Female

Lena is a delightful girl! Despite her difficult start, she is a very happy girl! Lena ended up in the shelter with her mom Lara and her siblings. Lara took great care of her litter, which gave Lena the chance to grow up with her mother and only be separated from her when she was really ready. This is a chance that many puppies in Romania do not get. But a cage in the shelter is not a place to grow up as a puppy. You really want to give such a happy girl like Lena the chance to discover the world and cuddle and play! Lena's birth date is estimated to be July 1 of this year. She is currently only 15 cm tall and weighs about 2 kg. But she is still young and will therefore still grow. Lara herself is not big (25 cm tall and 10 kg heavy with a slightly longer body and shorter legs) the father is unknown. It seems like Lena is on track to be a bit bigger than her mother. Lena is a happy girl, she loves to be out of her cage for the photos and videos. She wants to play, discover, cuddle and preferably all at once. Toys are super interesting because they don't have them in their kennel. How wonderful would it be if this cheerful puppy gets the chance to play every day with her own person. A person who wants to teach her everything she needs to know as a house dog in the Netherlands. Someone who wants to raise her patiently, lovingly but also consistently. A person of her own to go on adventures with, to play, cuddle, discover and feel safe with. Are you the one who can offer Lena this chance for a new start? If you are interested, we ask you to send an extensive email. In this way, we can ensure that the right dog ends up in the right place.

Wat is Lena leuk! Ondanks haar moeilijke start is ze een heel blij meisje! Lena belande met mama Lara en haar broertjes en zusjes in het asiel. Lara heeft fantastisch voor haar nestje gezorgd en dat heeft Lena de kans gegeven om bij haar moeder op te groeien en pas van haar gescheiden te worden toen ze er echt klaar voor was. Dat is een kans die veel pups in Roemenië niet krijgen. Maar een kooi in het asiel is natuurlijk geen plek om verder op te groeien als pup. Zo’n vrolijk meisje als Lena gun je toch echt de kans om de wereld te ontdekken en lekker te knuffelen en te spelen! De geboortedatum van Lena is geschat op 1 juli van dit jaar. Ze is momenteel nog maar 15 cm hoog en weegt zo’n 2 kg. Maar ze is nog jong en zal dus nog wel verder groeien. Mama Lara is zelf niet groot (25 cm hoog en 10 kg zwaar met een wat langer lijf en kortere pootjes) de vader is onbekend. Het lijkt alsof Lena op koers ligt om wat groter dan haar moeder te worden. Lena is een blij meisje, even uit haar hok zijn voor de foto’s en filmpjes vindt ze fantastisch. Ze wil spelen, ontdekken, knuffelen en het liefst allemaal tegelijk. Speeltjes zijn super interessant want die hebben ze natuurlijk niet in hun kennel. Wat zou het heerlijk zijn als dit vrolijke pupje een kans krijgt om elke dag lekker te spelen met haar eigen mens. Een mens die haar alles wil leren wat ze moet weten als huishond in Nederland. Iemand die haar geduldig, liefdevol maar ook consequent wil opvoeden. Een eigen mens om mee op avontuur te gaan, te spelen, te knuffelen, te ontdekken en je veilig bij te voelen. Ben jij degene die Lena deze kans op een nieuwe start kan bieden? Bij interesse vragen we u om een uitgebreide mail sturen. Op deze manier kunnen we zorgen dat de juiste hond op de juiste plek terecht komt.

About Lena

What life with Lena looks like

Lena is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Stichting Câine Rescue in Roemenië (NL-wide).

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 Netherlands

Dutch shelters typically require a household assessment and an adoption contract. Animals are routinely sterilized, microchipped, and registered in the national pet database (NDG) before placement.

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. Stichting Câine Rescue 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 — Stichting Câine Rescue 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 Stichting Câine Rescue 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 (NL). 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.
