Naila

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy · 4 months

A star of hope for me - my name is Naila – Naila says: I am a very loving female dog. I was simply left behind, without a thought about what would happen to me, where I would stay, or if someone would find me who likes me just the way I am - so that I can still have a good and happy life with a family that loves children. I am seven years young and a Pitbull-Mix. I have a calm nature, enjoy going for walks on a leash, and love children above all. I am cuddly, clingy, trusting, and eager to learn. I look forward to playing, going for walks, and even cycling together. I would really like to go swimming with children aged eight and older, play and romp around, and simply be cheerful. However, I do have a small problem: I don't like other dogs. As a puppy, I was bitten, and unfortunately, it happened again several times. My former owner did nothing to help me. But I am working on it. I now go to dog training classes to regain more trust in other dogs. There is also a good solution: when walking, I can wear a muzzle for safety. I would very much like to continue going to my dog training classes - together with my new, loving family with children. Maybe there is a star of hope for me somewhere. Your Naila 🐶✨ If you are interested in the lovely Naila, please contact Frau Cassens (Tierschutz Rhauderfehn) at the phone number provided.

Ein Stern der Hoffnung für mich – ich heiße Naila – Naila erzählt: Ich bin eine ganz liebe Hündin. Man hat mich einfach zurückgelassen, ohne einmal darüber nachzudenken, was aus mir wird, wo ich bleibe oder ob mich jemand finden wird, der mich so mag, wie ich bin – damit ich noch ein gutes und schönes Hundeleben in einer kinderlieben Familie verbringen darf. Ich bin sieben Jahre jung und ein Pitbull-Mix. Ich habe ein ruhiges Wesen, gehe gerne an der Leine spazieren und liebe Kinder über alles. Ich bin verschmust, anhänglich, zutraulich und lernwillig. Ich freue mich auf Spiele, auf Spaziergänge und auch auf gemeinsames Radfahren. Sehr gerne würde ich mit Kindern ab acht Jahren schwimmen gehen, mit ihnen toben, spielen und einfach fröhlich sein. Ein kleines Problem habe ich allerdings: Ich mag keine anderen Hunde. Als Welpe wurde ich gebissen, und leider ist das später noch öfter passiert. Mein damaliger Besitzer hat nichts unternommen, um mir zu helfen. Aber ich arbeite daran. Ich gehe jetzt in die Hundeschule, damit ich wieder mehr Vertrauen zu anderen Hunden gewinnen kann. Es gibt auch eine gute Lösung: Beim Spazierengehen kann ich zur Sicherheit kurz einen Maulkorb tragen. Sehr gerne würde ich weiterhin in meine Hundeschule gehen – zusammen mit meiner neuen, lieben Kinderfamilie. Vielleicht gibt es irgendwo für mich einen Stern der Hoffnung.

About Naila

What life with Naila looks like

Naila is a puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein Ammerland e.V. in Westerstede.

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 Naila, answered.

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