Lucy

Female · Young · 1 year

Hunting dog Lucy has had enough of the animal shelter and would much rather set off on outdoor adventures, giving her big heart away through cuddles. Lucy arrived at our partner shelter, Refugio Canino La Reserva, on 10.12.2025. Someone had no interest in a puppy, in responsibility, and apparently even less in caring for Lucy. Fortunately, Lucy has not let that take away her joy of life. Quite the opposite, she is full of it! She is a cheerful bundle of energy, very people-oriented, and in the shelter she is friendly toward everyone. She greets all visitors with great enthusiasm and would most like to pack her bag right away and be taken along. This pretty black female will likely be a Pointer or Bracke mix, which can be seen not only in her athletic build but also in her quick understanding. She loves movement and needs people who are just as active as she is. Whether extensive hikes, scent work or mental games, she will join in with enthusiasm. Anyone looking for a smart and sporty companion who will stick with them through thick and thin, and who celebrates a party every time they come home, will not be disappointed by Lucy. She is ready to give her heart away and to learn the basics of dog life together with her new people. people-oriented, friendly, active, keen on walking, full of energy Lucy is vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped and has a European pet passport. How does an adoption work? We explain it step by step. For legal reasons we do not place animals in Austria. Other neighboring countries are possible by arrangement.

Jagdhündin Lucy hat die Nase voll vom Tierheim und würde viel lieber Outdoor-Abenteuer starten und ihr großes Herz beim Kuscheln verschenken. Lucy kam am 10.12.2025 in unser Partnertierheim Refugio Canino La Reserva. Irgendjemand hatte keine Lust auf einen Welpen, auf Verantwortung und offensichtlich noch weniger darauf, sich um Lucy zu kümmern. Zum Glück hat Lucy sich davon nicht die Lebensfreude nehmen lassen. Ganz im Gegenteil, sie ist voll davon! Sie ist ein fröhliches Energiebündel, sehr menschenbezogen und zeigt sich im Tierheim jedem gegenüber freundlich. Sie begrüßt alle Besucher richtig überschwänglich und würde am liebsten sofort ihre Tasche packen und mitgenommen werden. Die hübsche, schwarze Hündin wird wohl ein Pointer- oder Bracke-Mix sein, was man nicht nur an ihrem athletischen Körperbau, sondern auch an ihrer schnellen Auffassungsgabe merkt. Sie liebt Bewegung und braucht Menschen, die ebenso aktiv sind wie sie selbst. Ob ausgiebige Wanderungen, Nasen- wie oder Kopfarbeit, sie wird mit Begeisterung dabei sein. Wer eine schlaue und sportliche Begleiterin sucht, die mit einem durch dick und dünn geht, und jedes Mal eine Party feiert, wenn man nach Hause kommt, wird von Lucy nicht enttäuscht werden. Sie ist bereit, ihr Herz zu verschenken und gemeinsam mit ihren neuen Menschen das Hunde-Einmaleins zu lernen. menschenbezogen, freundlich, aktiv, lauffreudig, voller Energie Lucy ist geimpft, entwurmt, gechipt und hat einen europäischen Heimtierausweis. Wie läuft eine Adoption ab? Wir erklären es Schritt für Schritt. Wir vermitteln aus gesetzlichen Gründen nicht nach Österreich. Andere Nachbarländer sind nach Absprache möglich.

About Lucy

What life with Lucy looks like

Lucy is a medium-sized young adult dog waiting at Sonnenpfoten e.V. in Lenningen.

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. Many dogs and cats leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport, but this varies by shelter, so confirm what is included with the shelter.

Frequently asked

Adopting Lucy, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Lucy?
Use the "View on shelter website" button on this page, which takes you to the shelter's own page. Sonnenpfoten e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Lucy on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Lucy if I live in another country?
Often, but it depends on the shelter and the countries involved. Some rescues place animals abroad and some only adopt out locally, so ask Sonnenpfoten e.V. whether they will for Lucy, what they require (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 Lucy already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Sonnenpfoten e.V. lists Lucy as vaccinated, microchipped and spayed. The adoption fee, and what it covers, is set by Sonnenpfoten e.V., so confirm with them what is included (vaccinations, microchip, sterilization, paperwork) and ask about specific vaccines, recent bloodwork or chronic conditions.
What happens if Lucy isn't the right fit?
Many rescues take an animal back if an adoption doesn't work, but policies differ, so ask Sonnenpfoten e.V. about its return policy before you adopt. If things aren't working, talk it through with them early rather than rehoming privately; they know Lucy 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.
