MyBoy

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 2 months

MyBoy... that's how he's called for now, because he doesn't have a name yet, he was found as a roughly 8-week-old puppy with a badly injured paw. We initially feared the worst and assumed a fracture. However, at the veterinarian in Craiova it turned out that his injury was from a severe bite wound. Thanks to the quick treatment and loving care, the paw has healed very well now. Gabriela was able to place the little man with her neighbor. She already brings dogs from Afumati here, who get the chance to travel to Germany with the Happy Bus. Here in the neighbor's garden he is safe. But he has already seen some happy travelers as playmates come and go in the last few weeks and is still waiting for his own family. MyBoy could travel to Germany right now and is looking forward to finding his people for life. We don't know how big he will be when fully grown because we don't know the parent animals, but we think he will reach a medium size.

MyBoy….so wird er erst einmal gerufen, denn einen eigenen Namen hat er noch nicht, wurde als ca. 8 Wochen alter Welpe mit einer schwer verletzten Pfote gefunden. Zunächst befürchteten wir das Schlimmste und gingen von einem Bruch aus. Beim Tierarzt in Craiova stellte sich jedoch heraus, dass seine Verletzung von einer schlimmen Bisswunde stammte. Dank der schnellen Behandlung und liebevollen Pflege ist die Pfote inzwischen sehr gut verheilt. Gabriela konnte den kleinen Mann bei ihrem Nachbarn unterbringen. Hier bringt sie schon einmal Hunde aus Afumati hin, die die Chance bekommen, mit dem Happy Bus nach Deutschland reisen zu dürfen. Hier im Garten des Nachbarn ist er in Sicherheit. Aber er hat in den letzten Wochen schon einige glückliche Reisende als Spielkameraden kommen und gehen sehen und wartet selbst noch auf seine eigene Familie. MyBoy könnte ab sofort nach Deutschland reisen und freut sich darauf, seine Menschen fürs Leben zu finden. Wie groß er ausgewachsen sein wird wissen wir nicht, da wir die Elterntiere ja nicht kennen, denken jedoch, dass er eine mittlere Größe erreichen wird.

About MyBoy

What life with MyBoy looks like

MyBoy is a medium-sized puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Friends for Life Germany e.V. in Hemer.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇩🇪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 MyBoy, answered.

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