Adopt Noa

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 3 years

About 3 years old (born around December 27, 2022) 58 cm, 20 kg female, neutered Leishmaniosetest positive Noa – a loving companion with a big heart 🐾💛 Noa is a very friendly, attached, and social female dog who enjoys the company of humans and approaches her surroundings openly. She gets along well with other dogs and shows herself to be uncomplicated in everyday life. She also walks nicely and calmly on a leash. When Noa arrived at the animal shelter, the quarantine at first was hard for her – the unfamiliar situation made her nervous. But with some time and patience, she adapted well and today shows her balanced, loving nature. Health: Leishmaniasis was detected in Noa. An initial rapid test in December 2025 was positive, although she showed no external signs. A subsequent laboratory examination confirmed a mild condition, after which she was immediately treated. A clear improvement could be observed after just one month. Noa is currently well-adjusted and shows herself to be in a stable condition. Additionally, Noa has successfully reduced her weight and is now in her optimal physical condition. Her story: Noa was given up by her former owner at the animal shelter – accompanied by many excuses that quickly made it clear he no longer wanted to keep her. Issues like "too nervous," "jumps over the fence," or career changes were mentioned. At the animal shelter, Noa has shown none of these problems – quite the opposite: She presents herself as a pleasant and well-handled female dog. What Noa is looking for: Noa is an uncomplicated female dog who does not require special dog experience. What is most important to her is a loving, reliable home where she can finally belong. She has more than earned the right to find her place for life and become part of a family that values her as she is. Whoever gives Noa a home wins a loyal, affectionate companion who has a lot to give 💕 Videos March 26:

Ca. 3,5 Jahre (geb. ca. 27.12.2022) 58 cm, 20 kg weiblich, kastriert Leishmaniosetest positiv Noch im Tierheim in Spanien Noa – liebevolle Begleiterin mit grossem Herz 🐾💛 Noa ist eine sehr freundliche, anhängliche und soziale Hündin, die die Nähe zu Menschen geniesst und offen auf ihre Umgebung zugeht. Mit anderen Hunden versteht sie sich gut und zeigt sich im Alltag unkompliziert. Auch an der Leine läuft sie bereits schön und entspannt. Als Noa im Tierheim ankam, fiel ihr die Quarantäne anfangs schwer – die ungewohnte Situation machte sie nervös. Doch mit etwas Zeit und Geduld hat sie sich gut eingelebt und zeigt heute ihr ausgeglichenes, liebevolles Wesen. Gesundheit: Bei Noa wurde Leishmaniose festgestellt. Ein erster Schnelltest im Dezember 2025 war positiv, obwohl sie äusserlich keinerlei Anzeichen zeigte. Eine anschliessende Laboruntersuchung bestätigte einen milden Befund, woraufhin sie sofort behandelt wurde. Bereits nach einem Monat konnte eine deutliche Verbesserung festgestellt werden. Noa ist aktuell gut eingestellt und zeigt sich in einem stabilen Zustand. Zudem hat Noa erfolgreich etwas Gewicht reduziert und befindet sich nun in ihrer optimalen körperlichen Verfassung. Ihre Geschichte: Noa wurde von ihrem früheren Besitzer im Tierheim abgegeben – begleitet von vielen Ausreden, die schnell erkennen liessen, dass er sie nicht mehr behalten wollte. Dinge wie „zu nervös“, „springt über den Zaun“ oder berufliche Veränderungen standen im Raum. Im Tierheim hat Noa jedoch keinerlei dieser Probleme gezeigt – im Gegenteil: Sie präsentiert sich als angenehme und gut händelbare Hündin. Was Noa sucht: Noa ist eine unkomplizierte Hündin, die keine spezielle Hundeerfahrung voraussetzt. Viel wichtiger ist für sie ein liebevolles, verlässliches Zuhause, in dem sie endlich ankommen darf. Sie hat es mehr als verdient, ihren Platz fürs Leben zu finden und Teil einer Familie zu sein, die sie so schätzt, wie sie ist. Wer Noa ein Zuhause schenkt, gewinnt eine treue, herzliche Begleiterin, die viel Liebe zu geben hat 💕 Videos März 26:

About Noa

What life with Noa looks like

Noa is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at home4dogs in Home4dogs.

An 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 Switzerland

Swiss shelters require a home visit (Platzkontrolle) and proof of suitable accommodation. Cantons each have their own additional dog-keeping requirements (e.g. SKN training in some areas). Animals leave sterilized and chipped.

Frequently asked

Adopting Noa, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Noa?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. home4dogs handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Noa on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Noa if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — home4dogs 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 Noa 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 Noa 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 home4dogs early rather than rehoming privately; they know Noa 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.
