How do I contact the shelter about Lorena?

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

Can I adopt Lorena if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierhilfe Franken 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 Lorena 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 Lorena 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 Tierhilfe Franken e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Lorena 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.

Lorena

Mixed Breed · Female

Lorena is a ridiculously lovable, utterly charming female dog with a "Pretty Woman" look that will make your heart melt. The sweet sparrow with the Little Lab outfit is not a girl who immediately and impulsively attacks everything and everyone. After a quick inspection of the "knots," her affection is boundless. Clever as our pretty one is, she does not accept everything at face value. She wants to get to know new things in peace and take her time. This wonderful female dog has a beautiful nature. With her fellow animals, the lady has no problems. The buddies are greeted friendly, but otherwise, she prefers to enjoy her walks alone. Driving is no problem either, although she would rather lie in her box. Lorena would like a home with people who can lovingly but also consistently guide her through life. She does not need much action but prefers a cozy home with a quiet atmosphere and a little patience. Children under preschool age would overwhelm her. The charming female dog is a country girl – a house and garden would be ideal. She would also be happy with a feline companion.

DE·Show original

Lorena ist ein wahnsinnig liebes, ganz entzückendes Hundemädchen mit einem „Pretty Woman Blick“ zum Verlieben. Der süße Spatz mit dem Klein-Labbi Outfit ist kein Mädel, die sofort und ungestüm auf alles und jeden losstürmt. Ist nach kurzer Inspektion der „Knoten“ geplatzt, ist ihre Zuneigung grenzenlos. Klug, wie unsere Hübsche ist, wird von ihr auch nicht alles auf Anhieb akzeptiert. Sie möchte Neues erst mal in Ruhe kennen lernen und entspannen. Eine schöne Wesensart dieser wunderbaren Hündin. Mit ihren Artgenossen hat die Lady keine Probleme. Die Kumpels werden freundlich begrüßt, aber ansonsten genießt sie lieber alleine ihre Spaziergänge. Autofahren ist ebenso wenig ein Problem, wobei sie jedoch am liebsten in ihrer Box liegt. Lorena hätte gerne ein Zuhause bei Menschen, die sie liebevoll, aber auch etwas konsequent durchs Leben begleiten. Sie benötigt nicht viel Action, sondern bevorzugt ein gemütliches Heim mit ruhigen Tönen und ein wenig Geduld. Kleine Kinder im Vorschulalter würden sie überfordern. Die bezaubernde Hündin ist ein Landmädel – Haus und Garten wären ideal. Gerne auch mit Katzengesellschaft.

About Lorena

What life with Lorena looks like

Lorena is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierhilfe Franken e.V. in Lauf.

An 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. Animals leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with a valid EU pet passport. Adoption fees usually fall between €250 and €450, covering veterinary preparation.
