Lima

Podenco · Female · Senior · 11 years

Lima - relaxed female dog seeking a home. Podenco Lima is a completely easygoing dream dog. Anyone who meets her is immediately delighted by her calm and open nature. She has quickly and smoothly integrated into the life at her foster home. She gets along well with the existing mixed group of dogs and cuddles without prejudice with every person who visits. During the day she likes to nap in her basket, so she would certainly also be a great office dog. If invited onto the sofa, she loves to be scratched and gently begs for more when you stop, but never becomes pushy or rough. She is currently quite stocky, but the fox-like face and delicate legs suggest an elegant build beneath her winter coat. Since walks with her are pleasant and stress-free for both sides, losing weight will probably not be a problem. Lima walks beside her caretaker with a loose leash and wagging tail. The podenco-type hunting instinct has so far not been particularly pronounced; she only watches with mild interest as running cats disappear. Therefore, someone who has never had a hunting dog will find in Lima the perfect starter dog. Lima was housebroken from the beginning, bravely tolerates both fur and nail care, and remains alone with her dog friends at her foster home without problems. Lima enjoys visitors and convinces interested people personally with her balanced, friendly nature. Lima would gladly move in with seniors who, like her, do not want to be considered old iron yet.

Lima – entspannte Hundedame sucht Zuhause Podenca Lima ist eine völlig unkomplizierte Traumhündin. Jeder, der sie kennenlernt, ist sofort begeistert von ihrer ruhigen, aufgeschlossenen Art. In das Leben auf ihrer Pflegestelle hat sie sich rasch und reibungslos integriert. Sie kommt super mit der vorhandenen gemischten Hundegruppe klar und kuschelt vorurteilsfrei mit jeder Person, die zu Besuch kommt. Tagsüber döst sie gerne in ihrem Körbchen, sie würde sich daher bestimmt auch gut als Bürohund eignen. Wird sie aufs Sofa eingeladen, lässt sie sich liebend gerne kraulen und bittet, wenn man aufhört auch mit sanften Pfötchen um Nachschub, wird dabei aber nie aufdringlich oder gar grob. Momentan ist sie ziemlich stämmig, das Fuchsgesicht und die zarten Beine lassen unter den Winterpolstern jedoch einen eleganten Körperbau erahnen. Da Spaziergänge mit ihr für beide Seiten sehr angenehm und stressfrei sind, wird das Abnehmen sicherlich kein Problem werden. Lima läuft an der lockeren Leine und mit wedelnder Rute neben ihrer Bezugsperson her. Der podencotypische Jagdtrieb hat sich bisher als nicht besonders ausgeprägt gezeigt, selbst wegrennenden Katzen schaut sie lediglich mit leichtem Interesse hinterher. Wer also noch nie einen Jagdhund hatte, findet in Lima den perfekten Anfängerhund. Lima war von Anfang an stubenrein, toleriert brav sowohl Fell- als auch Krallenpflege und bleibt auf ihrer Pflegestelle problemlos mit ihren Hundefreunden allein. Lima freut sich über Besuch und überzeugt bei Interesse gerne persönlich mit ihrer ausgeglichenen, freundlichen Art. Gerne zieht Lima auch zu Senioren, die sich genau wie sie noch lange nicht zum sogenannten alten Eisen zählen lassen wollen. Hier geht’s zu Limas Video

About Lima

What life with Lima looks like

Lima is a senior podenco dog waiting at SALVA Hundehilfe e.V. in Germany.

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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Lima, answered.

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