Nora

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy · 19 months

Two Sisters Searching for Their Happiness (06/26) When Nora and Tharros were only two months old, the two sisters were picked up together with their brother by dog catchers and taken to a canile. While their brother has since had the great fortune of finding a home of his own, Nora and Tharros are still waiting behind bars for their chance. For about a year and a half now, their days have consisted of a few square meters of concrete, little variety, and a great deal of dreariness. Day after day, around the clock. To this day, they have known little beyond metal bars and the bleak routine of the kennel. Everything that comes naturally to most dogs – a home, walks, different environmental stimuli, or living together with people – is foreign to them. When it comes to the everyday things of our world, they are therefore roughly where a puppy is when it still has to discover the world. Yet both have not lost their friendly nature. Nora is the smaller of the two, Tharros the darker beauty. Both are open, people-oriented, and happy every time they receive the brief moments of attention the canile staff are able to give them. For Nora and Tharros, we wish for people with patience, heart, and understanding, who will show them step by step how beautiful a dog's life can be. Attending a dog school can help build trust and strengthen the human-dog bond. Contact with other dogs is also important so that their good socialization can continue to be developed. Would you like to give Nora or Tharros the chance of a loving home and accompany them on their path to happiness? Then please feel free to contact me. Nora and Tharros are ready to begin their new life – they only need the right person by their side. Video: June 2026

Zwei Schwestern auf der Suche nach ihrem Glück (06/26) Als Nora und Tharros gerade einmal zwei Monate alt waren, wurden die beiden Schwestern gemeinsam mit ihrem Bruder von Hundefängern aufgegriffen und in ein Canile gebracht. Während ihr Bruder inzwischen das große Glück hatte, ein eigenes Zuhause zu finden, warten Nora und Tharros noch immer hinter Gittern auf ihre Chance. Seit mittlerweile eineinhalb Jahren besteht ihr Alltag aus wenigen Quadratmetern Beton, wenig Abwechslung und viel Tristesse. Tag für Tag, rund um die Uhr. Bis heute haben sie kaum etwas anderes kennengelernt als Gitterstäbe und den tristen Alltag im Zwinger. Alles, was für die meisten Hunde selbstverständlich ist – ein Zuhause, Spaziergänge, verschiedene Umweltreize oder das Zusammenleben mit Menschen – ist ihnen fremd. In Bezug auf die Dinge unseres Alltags stehen sie daher ungefähr dort, wo ein Welpe steht, der die Welt erst noch entdecken muss. Dabei haben beide ihr freundliches Wesen nicht verloren. Nora ist die etwas Kleinere der beiden, Tharros die etwas dunklere Schönheit. Beide sind aufgeschlossen, menschenbezogen und freuen sich jedes Mal über die kurzen Momente der Aufmerksamkeit, die ihnen die Mitarbeiter des Canile schenken können. Für Nora und Tharros wünschen wir uns Menschen mit Geduld, Herz und Verständnis, die ihnen Schritt für Schritt zeigen, wie schön ein Hundeleben sein kann. Der Besuch einer Hundeschule kann dabei helfen, Vertrauen aufzubauen und die Mensch-Hund-Beziehung zu stärken. Auch der Kontakt zu anderen Hunden ist wichtig, damit ihre gute Sozialisierung weiter gefördert wird. Möchten Sie Nora oder Tharros die Chance auf ein liebevolles Zuhause schenken und sie auf ihrem Weg ins Glück begleiten? Dann melden Sie sich gerne bei mir. Nora und Tharros sind bereit, ihr neues Leben zu beginnen – es fehlt ihnen nur noch der passende Mensch an ihrer Seite. Video: Juni 2026

About Nora

What life with Nora looks like

Nora is a medium-sized puppy mixed breed dog waiting at saving dogs e.V. in Germany.

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 Nora, answered.

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