And it is even more astonishing how much love some of these animals still carry. Our Lina is one of them. The pretty Croatian shepherd dog mix has a sad past. She lived under difficult conditions and was a victim of cruel mistreatment. Lina was doused with an unknown liquid that apparently damaged her skin so badly that she lost a large part of her fur. There followed a long, intensive medical treatment, in which she was cared for, cared for and lovingly nursed week by week. Fortunately, Lina is doing much better today, and her fur is also slowly growing back. But the best thing about her is something she has never lost despite everything: her incredible love for people. Lina is a very friendly, affectionate and affectionate female dog. Even people she has just met, she meets with a touching openness. She seeks her proximity, clings to her and enjoys every loving touch. As if she wanted to make up for all the affection she had been missing for so long. And yet this wonderful female dog is still waiting for her own family. Maybe it's because of her still missing fur. Maybe because some people only see the outside and not the big heart behind it. But Lina is so much more than what was done to her. She is a loving female dog who finally wants to experience how it feels to belong. A own basket, familiar people, loving hands and a home where she is welcome forever. For Lina, we wish for people who will close her with all her special features, give her time to arrive and give her the security she so badly deserves. People who do not look at her missing fur, but in her beautiful eyes and the big heart behind it. Lina had to experience how cruel people can be. Now she should be allowed to experience how wonderful they can be. Who will finally give this special soul a home? .fusion-body .fusion-button Interest in an adoption?

Und noch erstaunlicher ist es, wie viel Liebe manche dieser Tiere trotzdem in sich tragen. Unsere Lina ist eines davon. Die hübsche kroatische Schäferhund-Mischlingshündin hat eine traurige Vergangenheit. Sie lebte unter schwierigen Bedingungen und wurde Opfer einer grausamen Misshandlung. Lina wurde mit einer unbekannten Flüssigkeit übergossen, die ihre Haut offenbar so stark schädigte, dass sie einen großen Teil ihres Fells verlor. Es folgte eine lange, intensive medizinische Behandlung, bei der sie Woche für Woche versorgt, gepflegt und liebevoll aufgepäppelt wurde. Heute geht es Lina glücklicherweise viel besser, und auch ihr Fell beginnt langsam wieder nachzuwachsen. Doch das Schönste an ihr ist etwas, das sie trotz allem nie verloren hat: ihre unglaubliche Liebe zu Menschen. Lina ist eine ausgesprochen freundliche, verschmuste und anhängliche Hündin. Selbst Menschen, die sie gerade erst kennengelernt hat, begegnet sie mit einer berührenden Offenheit. Sie sucht ihre Nähe, schmiegt sich an sie und genießt jede liebevolle Berührung. Als würde sie all die Zuneigung, die ihr so lange gefehlt hat, endlich nachholen wollen. Und trotzdem wartet diese wundervolle Hündin noch immer auf ihre eigene Familie. Vielleicht liegt es an ihrem noch lückenhaften Fell. Vielleicht daran, dass manche Menschen nur das Äußere sehen und nicht das große Herz dahinter. Dabei ist Lina so viel mehr als das, was ihr angetan wurde. Sie ist eine liebevolle Hündin, die endlich erfahren soll, wie es sich anfühlt, dazuzugehören. Ein eigenes Körbchen, vertraute Menschen, liebevolle Hände und ein Zuhause, in dem sie für immer willkommen ist. Für Lina wünschen wir uns Menschen, die sie mit all ihren Besonderheiten ins Herz schließen, ihr Zeit zum Ankommen geben und ihr die Geborgenheit schenken, die sie so sehr verdient. Menschen, die nicht auf ihr fehlendes Fell schauen, sondern in ihre wunderschönen Augen und das große Herz dahinter. Lina hat erfahren müssen, wie grausam Menschen sein können. Jetzt soll sie erleben dürfen, wie wundervoll sie sein können. Wer schenkt dieser besonderen Seele endlich ein Zuhause? .fusion-body .fusion-button Interesse an einer Adoption?

About Lina

What life with Lina looks like

Lina is a small young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Nordic Strays e.V. in Germany.

A young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. 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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Lina, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Lina?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Nordic Strays e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Lina on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Lina if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Nordic Strays 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Lina 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 Lina 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 Nordic Strays e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Lina 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.
