Nelly

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy · 8 months

Nelly, a small dog approximately 35-38 cm tall, was rescued from the Golesti euthanasia center in Romania. Since her rescue in the spring, Nelly has been living with our animal welfare officer in a private shelter with a mixed pack. Nelly is sociable and her caregiver describes her as friendly, curious, and playful. She enjoys being in the middle of the action, seeking affection and clinging to her caregiver's skirt. Nelly has left her past behind. We see her future in a home where she can finally arrive. Preferably with a first-time dog. Our dogs travel vaccinated, chipped, dewormed, and with an EU passport. From the age of 8 months, a rapid test for the 4 most important regional parasites is performed, and dogs are usually spayed/neutered from the age of 10 months. The assessments of the dogs refer to their current, usual place of residence, i.e., in their familiar environment with known caregivers, in their existing pack. We cannot predict how a dog will behave in the future, especially after moving to a new home. Each animal is an individual and will change and develop further.

About Nelly

What life with Nelly looks like

Nelly is a small puppy mixed breed dog waiting at Wir retten Hunde e.V. in München.

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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Nelly, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Nelly?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Wir retten Hunde e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Nelly on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Nelly if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Wir retten Hunde 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Nelly 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 Nelly 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 Wir retten Hunde e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Nelly 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.
