How do I contact the shelter about Pax?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Förderverein Tiernothilfe Siebenbürgen e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Pax on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Pax if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Förderverein Tiernothilfe Siebenbürgen 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 Pax 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 Pax 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 Förderverein Tiernothilfe Siebenbürgen e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Pax 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.

Spend call for Pax – because giving up for her was never an option Pax is a female dog from Romania. One of many – and yet, so special. She was found after a serious accident. Alone. Injured. Helpless. One front leg was so severely damaged that amputation was necessary. The second front leg is severely punctured, and her elbow was also severely injured in the accident. Every step is still a major challenge for her today. And yet: Pax did not give up. She fought. She survived. In January 2026, she finally had some luck and was able to move to a foster home in Germany. For the first time in her life, she experiences what it means: ❤️ to be loved ❤️ to be cared for ❤️ to lie soft ❤️ to be cuddled ❤️ simply to be a dog Pax is the world's most loved dog. Gentle. Grateful. Cuddly. She carries all the pain of her past – and yet, she trusts us humans. But Pax needs our help to truly live. To be able to walk again better and with as little pain as possible, we need: 🐾 a full prosthesis for her amputated front leg 🐾 an orthosis to support the puncture at the second front leg The cost for this is 2,320 €. A sum we cannot cover alone. Please help us give Pax a piece of quality of life back. Every euro counts.

Spendenaufruf für Pax – weil Aufgeben für sie nie eine Option war Pax ist eine Hündin aus Rumänien. Eine von vielen – und doch so besonders. Sie wurde nach einem schweren Unfall gefunden. Allein. Verletzt. Hilflos. Ein Vorderbein war so schwer zerstört, dass es amputiert werden musste. Das zweite Vorderbein ist stark durchtrittig, auch der Ellenbogen wurde bei dem Unfall schwer verletzt. Jeder Schritt ist für sie bis heute eine große Herausforderung. Und trotzdem: Pax hat nicht aufgegeben. Sie hat gekämpft. Sie hat überlebt. Im Januar 2026 hatte sie endlich Glück und durfte nach Deutschland auf eine Pflegestelle ziehen. Zum ersten Mal in ihrem Leben erfährt sie, was es heißt: ❤️ geliebt zu werden ❤️ umsorgt zu werden ❤️ weich zu liegen ❤️ gekuschelt zu werden ❤️ einfach Hund sein zu dürfen Pax ist der liebste Hund der Welt. Sanft. Dankbar. Verschmust. Sie trägt all das Leid ihrer Vergangenheit – und trotzdem vertraut sie uns Menschen. Doch Pax braucht unsere Hilfe, um wirklich leben zu können. Damit sie wieder besser und möglichst schmerzfrei laufen kann, benötigen wir: 🐾 eine Vollprothese für ihr amputiertes Vorderbein 🐾 eine Orthese zur Unterstützung der Durchtrittigkeit am zweiten Vorderbein Die Kosten dafür betragen 2.320 €. Eine Summe, die wir allein nicht bewältigen können. Bitte helfen Sie uns, Pax ein Stück Lebensqualität zurückzugeben. Jeder Euro zählt.

About Pax

What life with Pax looks like

Pax is a large young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Förderverein Tiernothilfe Siebenbürgen e.V. in Germany.

An young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇩🇪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.
