Lenny – PLZ 45239 – Gnadenplatz gesucht

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 8 years

Lenny was born around 03/2018, stands about 35–40 cm tall, and currently weighs roughly 15 kg. He was found alone on the streets of Arad in Romania. Despite everything he must have experienced, he met his rescuers with great gratitude. He has since been able to travel to Germany to a loving foster home. In his foster home, Lenny proves to be an absolutely uncomplicated housemate. He is house-trained, can stay alone without any problems, and gets along very well with other dogs. Despite his past, he has kept his friendly, gentle, and loving nature. His foster family is delighted with him and describes him as a very special dog who touches everyone's heart with his calm presence. Lenny has some physical limitations. He is deaf and can only see very little – according to the veterinarian, he perceives his surroundings only as if through frosted glass. It is also assumed that he had to live for a very long time in a far too small cage. As a result, his muscles had weakened considerably, and at first he could only manage to walk for a few minutes. But with each day he is regaining strength – he now already enjoys walks of 15 to 20 minutes and is continuously building up muscle. His waddling gait is simply part of who he is and does not keep him from enjoying life. Recently, Lenny also had to undergo a dental operation. Two splintered and severely inflamed teeth were removed. That he bravely endured this pain for so long without showing it once again shows how modest and brave he is. He came through the operation very well. For Lenny, we wish for a quiet home with people who accept him just as he is. His limitations do not prevent him from leading a happy life – he simply needs people who give him security, patience, and a sense of belonging. A ground-floor home or one with only a few steps would be ideal so that he can continue to move around safely. Lenny is not looking for a place – he is looking for a person who shows him that his past is finally over. A person who loves him despite his small handicaps and gives him the sense of security he probably never got to know. Anyone who gives Lenny this chance gains a loyal, loving, and incredibly grateful companion for the heart. We look forward to your inquiries! Lenny has been examined by a veterinarian, dewormed, deflead, microchipped, vaccinated, neutered, and tested for Mediterranean diseases including leishmaniasis, and has an EU pet passport and TRACES entry. Because it is especially important to us to find a suitable home for Lenny, the

Lenny wurde etwa 03/2018 geboren, ist ca. 35–40 cm groß und wiegt aktuell rund 15 kg. Er wurde einsam auf den Straßen von Arad in Rumänien gefunden. Trotz allem, was er erlebt haben muss, begegnete er seinen Rettern voller Dankbarkeit. Inzwischen durfte Lenny auf eine liebevolle Pflegestelle nach Deutschland reisen. Auf seiner Pflegestelle zeigt sich Lenny als absolut unkomplizierter Mitbewohner. Er ist stubenrein, kann problemlos alleine bleiben und versteht sich sehr gut mit anderen Hunden. Trotz seiner Vergangenheit hat er sich seine freundliche, sanfte und liebevolle Art bewahrt. Seine Pflegestelle ist begeistert von ihm und beschreibt ihn als einen ganz besonderen Hund, der mit seiner ruhigen Ausstrahlung alle Herzen berührt. Lenny trägt einige körperliche Einschränkungen mit sich. Er ist taub und kann nur noch sehr wenig sehen – laut Tierärztin nimmt er seine Umgebung nur noch wie durch Milchglas wahr. Außerdem wird vermutet, dass er über einen sehr langen Zeitraum in einem viel zu kleinen Käfig leben musste. Dadurch hatte sich seine Muskulatur stark zurückgebildet und anfangs schaffte er nur wenige Minuten zu laufen. Doch mit jedem Tag gewinnt er an Kraft zurück – mittlerweile genießt er bereits Spaziergänge von 15 bis 20 Minuten und baut kontinuierlich Muskulatur auf. Sein watschelnder Gang gehört einfach zu ihm und hindert ihn nicht daran, sein Leben zu genießen. Vor Kurzem musste Lenny zudem eine Zahnoperation über sich ergehen lassen. Zwei gesplitterte und stark entzündete Zähne wurden entfernt. Dass er diese Schmerzen so lange tapfer ertragen hat, ohne es sich anmerken zu lassen, zeigt einmal mehr, wie bescheiden und tapfer er ist. Die Operation hat er sehr gut überstanden. Für Lenny wünschen wir uns ein ruhiges Zuhause bei Menschen, die ihn so annehmen, wie er ist. Seine Einschränkungen halten ihn nicht davon ab, ein glückliches Leben zu führen – er braucht lediglich Menschen, die ihm Sicherheit, Geduld und Geborgenheit schenken. Ein ebenerdiges Zuhause oder eines mit wenigen Stufen wäre ideal, damit er sich weiterhin sicher bewegen kann. Lenny sucht keinen Ort – er sucht einen Menschen, der ihm zeigt, dass seine Vergangenheit endlich vorbei ist. Einen Menschen, der ihn trotz seiner kleinen Handicaps liebt und ihm die Geborgenheit schenkt, die er vermutlich nie kennenlernen durfte. Wer Lenny diese Chance gibt, gewinnt einen treuen, liebevollen und unglaublich dankbaren Begleiter fürs Herz. Wir freuen uns auf eure Anfragen! Lenny ist tierärztlich untersucht, entwurmt, entfloht, gechipt, geimpft, kastriert und auf Mittelmeerkrankheiten inkl. Leishmaniose getestet, mit EU Pass und Traces. Da es uns besonders wichtig ist, für Lenny ein passendes Zuhause zu finden, erfolgt die
