How do I contact the shelter about Leopold?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Seelen für Seelchen e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Leopold on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Leopold if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Seelen für Seelchen 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 Leopold 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 Leopold 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 Seelen für Seelchen e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Leopold 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.

Leopold

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 9 years

Age: Born in 2021. Gender: male. neutered: yes Character: very friendly, calm Size: approx. 46 cm In shelter since: May 2021 Hello dear two-leggeds! My name is Leopold. I need to take a deep breath because my previous life isn't really worth telling. Where do I start? When I came to the shelter in May 2021… they thought I was cute! Make sure to check the photos in my album, because I was really a sweetie pie! They told me back then that the worst time of my life was behind me, after all, I was alone on the dangerous Romanian streets without my mommy, and I didn't know how to proceed. My life has really turned around for the better in the shelter! Definitely! But I also know that life has so much more to offer. Now I naturally ask myself… if no one wanted me as a sweet puppy… why now? There are already many dogs my age here. But now let me tell you something specific about my character, maybe it will convince you: I find all my fellow animals super and I always meet you humans with friendliness. I share my pen with my best friends and our highlight is always when someone comes by. I always have at least one kiss ready, but I usually have many more on hand. My deepest wish is that the right people will discover me and believe that a wonderful family dog is inside me. I have already envisioned my dream life and I am so excited when my dream comes true one day. If I could convince you, then from the bottom of my heart, please take a moment to think about it and don't hesitate. Because I am so ready! If you are interested in Leopold, please fill out our interested parties form or write us an email or a message on Facebook. Leopold is ready to travel and can travel to Germany with the next transport. Our dogs travel legally with Traces. Traces refers to the database system that monitors the entire animal transport within the EU. The dogs travel vaccinated, microchipped, and dewormed, and have an EU passport. Additionally, a rapid test for the following Mediterranean diseases is conducted for dogs over 12 months of age before travel arrangements: Borreliosis, Anaplasmosis, Ehrlichiosis, Dirofilariosis, and leishmaniasis. The sponsorship for Leopold has been taken over by Andrea W. and so a full bowl is ensured. Many thanks on behalf of the dogs!

Steckbrief Alter: 2021 geboren. Geschlecht: männlich. Kastriert: jaCharakter: sehr freundlich, ruhigGröße: ca. 46 cm Im Shelter seit: Mai 2021 Hallo liebe Zweibeiner!Mein Name ist Leopold. Ich muss erst einmal tief durchatmen, denn mein bisheriges Leben ist nicht so wirklich erzählenswert. Wo fange ich also an?Als ich im Mai 2021 ins Shelter kam… man war ich da niedlich! Schaut euch unbedingt die Fotos in meinem Album an, denn ich war wirklich eine Zuckerschnute vom Feinsten!Man sagte mir damals, dass die schlimmste Zeit meines Lebens hinter mir läge, schließlich war ich ohne meine Mama ganz alleine auf den gefährlichen rumänischen Straßen unterwegs und wusste nicht so recht, wie es weitergehen sollte. Mein Leben hat sich im Shelter wirklich zum Besseren gewendet! Definitiv! Aber ich weiß auch, dass das Leben noch so viel mehr zu bieten hatNun stelle ich mir natürlich die Frage … wenn mich als süßer Welpe niemand wollte… warum dann jetzt? Es gibt allein hier viele Hunde in meinem Alter. Aber jetzt erzähle ich euch mal was genaues über meinen Charakter, vielleicht überzeuge ich euch damit:Meine Artgenossen finde ich alle super und auch euch Menschen begegne ich immer freundlich. Meinen Zwinger teile ich mir mit meinen besten Freunden und unser Highlight ist es immer, wenn jemand bei uns vorbeikommt. Ich habe immer mindestens ein Küsschen parat, aber meistens noch viel mehr davon auf Lager.Mein sehnlichster Wunsch ist es, dass mich die richtigen Menschen entdecken und mir glauben, dass in mir ein wunderbarer Familienhund steckt. Ich habe mir mein Traumleben schon ausgemalt und freue mich so sehr darauf, wenn mein Traum eines Tages wahr wird.Wenn ich euch überzeugen konnte, dann bitte ich euch aus tiefster Seele, dass ihr kurz in euch geht und dann nicht lange zögert. Denn ich bin so sehr bereit! Wenn Sie Interesse an Leopold haben, füllen Sie bitte unseren Interessentenbogen aus oder schreiben Sie uns eine E-Mail an oder eine Nachricht über Facebook. Leopold ist ausreisefertig und kann mit dem nächsten Transport nach Deutschland reisen. Unsere Hunde reisen legal mit Traces. Als Traces bezeichnet man das Datenbanksystem, mit dem der gesamte Tierverkehr innerhalb der EU überwacht wird. Die Hunde reisen geimpft, gechipt und entwurmt aus und besitzen einen EU-Pass. Des Weiteren wird bei Hunden ab 12 Monaten vor der Ausreise ein Schnelltest auf folgende Mittelmeerkrankheiten durchgeführt: Borreliose, Anaplasmose, Ehrlichiose, Dirofilariose und Leishmaniose. Die Patenschaft für Leopold hat Andrea W. übernommen und sorgt so für ein gefülltes Näpfchen. Vielen Dank im Namen der Hunde!

About Leopold

What life with Leopold looks like

Leopold is a medium-sized senior mixed breed dog waiting at Seelen für Seelchen e.V. in Alfter.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇩🇪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.
