Lonny

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 5 years

Lonny, born approximately February 2021, neutered, approximately 60 cm shoulder height, at the shelter since 2021. Lonny came to the shelter at about 8 months old. In the meantime, she has been with us for several years and has developed from a fearful dog to a curious-fearful female dog. Lonny is compatible with all other dogs, but it is obvious that she is exhausted from the constant smelling and incessant barking in the shelter. Her nature is rather quiet and reserved. Currently, she is a bit plump, but she is no longer as fat as she was in the pictures from last winter. Lonny is particularly excited about cleaning the cat container - she stands in front of it curiously and observes everything very carefully. She seems to have no problems with cats, she doesn't react to them at all. It was there that the beautiful portrait photos of her were taken, showing how attentive and interested she can be. We wish her a home with sensitive and experienced people who can show her what a good dog life is like in peace and without time pressure or expectations. It should be okay if she never wants to go for a walk or cuddle like a normal dog. Maybe she will be good for one or two positive surprises. At least a confident first dog, as well as a securely fenced garden with direct access to the house are basic requirements. Since Lonny has only poor chances of being adopted, we would be very happy if someone would take a sponsorship for her. Located in Romania and allowed to leave if a home is found. Travels chipped and vaccinated (EU vaccination passport; vaccinations: rabies and basic immunization). All dogs are treated against intestinal parasites and ectoparasites at their arrival at the shelter and at least once a year thereafter. The described behavioral observations are based on everyday life in the shelter and may be different in a domestic environment under changed living conditions. The transport (registered with Traces) will be organized and carried out by us, as far as legally possible for the destination country. Please note the information on this page:

02/2024 Futterpatenschaft: - Tierarztpatenschaft: - Lonny, geboren ca. 02/2021, kastriert, ca. 60 cm Schulterhöhe, im Shelter seit 2021 Lonny kam mit ca. 8 Monaten ins Shelter. Mittlerweile ist sie schon mehrere Jahre bei uns und hat sich in dieser Zeit von einem ängstlichen Hund zu einer neugierig-ängstlichen Hündin entwickelt. Lonny ist mit allen anderen Hunden verträglich, doch es ist offensichtlich, dass sie durch die ständige Witterung und das unaufhörliche Gebell im Shelter erschöpft ist. Ihr Naturell ist eher ruhig und zurückhaltend. Aktuell ist sie etwas moppelig, aber so dick wie auf den Bildern von letztem Winter ist sie nicht mehr. Besonders spannend findet Lonny das Säubern des Katzencontainers – neugierig steht sie vorne und beobachtet alles ganz genau. Mit Katzen scheint sie keine Probleme zu haben, sie reagiert gar nicht auf diese. Genau dort sind auch die schönen Porträtfotos von ihr entstanden, die zeigen, wie aufmerksam und interessiert sie sein kann. Wir wünschen uns für sie ein Zuhause bei einfühlsamen und erfahrenen Menschen, die ihr in Ruhe und ohne Zeitdruck oder Erwartungshaltung zeigen, was ein gutes Hundeleben ist. Es sollte okay sein, wenn sie nie wie ein normaler Hund Gassi gehen oder kuscheln will. Vielleicht ist sie dann für die eine oder andere positive Überraschung gut. Mindestens ein souveräner Ersthund, sowie ein sicher eingezäunter Garten mit direktem Zugang zum Haus sind Grundvoraussetzungen. Da Lonny nur schlechte Vermittlungschancen hat, würden wir uns sehr freuen, wenn jemand eine Patenschaft für sie übernimmt. Befindet sich aktuell in Rumänien und darf ausreisen, wenn sie ein Zuhause gefunden hat. Reist gechipt und geimpft (EU Impfpass; Impfungen: Tollwut und Grundimmunisierung). Alle Hunde werden bei ihrer Ankunft im Shelter sowie anschließend mindestens einmal jährlich gegen Darmparasiten und Ektoparasiten behandelt. Die geschilderten Verhaltensbeobachtungen basieren auf dem Alltag im Shelter und können sich in einem häuslichen Umfeld unter veränderten Lebensbedingungen entsprechend anders darstellen. Der Transport (angemeldet mit Traces) wird von uns, so weit es für das Bestimmungsland rechtlich möglich ist, organisiert und durchgeführt. Bitte beachten Sie die Informationen auf dieser Seite:

About Lonny

What life with Lonny looks like

Lonny is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Hope for Future e.V. in Germany.

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 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 Lonny, answered.

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