How do I contact the shelter about Penelope?

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

Can I adopt Penelope if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Ein Herz für Streuner 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 Penelope 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 Penelope 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 Ein Herz für Streuner e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Penelope 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.

adoption requirements adoption process Now request this animal! adoption requirements adoption process Now request this dog! Penelope has found her home! Her story: Penelope and her siblings Charly, Cassia, Yui, Juri, and Lisanne – 24 little paws, six hearts, and a big wish: finally a home. Currently, unfortunately, the public shelter in Bistrita is their central location. A safe place, yes – but not a place where the approximately 3-month-old treasures can grow up freely and explore the world. Therefore, we urgently seek a separate family for each of them, where they can play, learn, and simply be dogs. Without exception, all six puppy siblings are approachable, uncomplicated, and extremely friendly. Every pat and every loving word they soak up makes their eyes sparkle. They are curious, alert, and burst with energy, playing with each other whenever the opportunity arises. They also show themselves to be open and friendly when interacting with other dogs. They do not know cats. With mixed-breed puppies, one can never be sure which breeds are in them or which genes will ultimately prevail – time will tell. What is certain, however, is that cuddling is in their blood. Delicate, with soft, one-colored fur, floppy ears, and a dark nose – so bewitches Penelope everyone who sees her. At 3–4 kg and about 20 cm shoulder height, she is likely to grow to be small to medium-sized. Of course, a puppy brings a lot of joy but also responsibility. Penelope is still at the very beginning of her life and must learn the dog ABC: house training, walking on a leash, being alone, and all the things a dog needs for a relaxed coexistence. And just like with all young puppies, puberty is also part of it – a time when a cute puppy turns into a little personality with its own ideas. With a lot of understanding, clear rules, and a little patience, this phase will also be overcome together. After a positive neutering, she is age-appropriately not yet. Who would like to meet the sweet Penelope and be enchanted by her nature? Penelope also welcomes a foster home that gives her temporary security and care. Many thanks, Loredana, for taking on her namesship. As of 12.03. This animal is vaccinated. This animal is microchipped. Some symptoms here are age-related.

Vermittlungsvoraussetzungen Vermittlungsablauf Jetzt dieses Tier anfragen! Vermittlungsvoraussetzungen Vermittlungsablauf Jetzt diesen Hund anfragen! Penelope hat ihr Zuhause gefunden! Ihre Geschichte: Penelope und ihre Geschwister Charly, Cassia, Yui, Juri und Lisanne – 24 kleine Pfoten, sechs Herzen und ein großer Wunsch: endlich ein Zuhause. Momentan ist leider das öffentliche Shelter in Bistrita ihr Lebensmittelpunkt. Ein sicherer Ort, ja – aber kein Platz, an dem die etwa 3 Monate alten Schätze unbeschwert aufwachsen und die Welt entdecken können. Deshalb suchen wir dringend für jeden von ihnen eine eigene Familie, in der sie spielen, lernen und einfach Hund sein dürfen. Ohne Ausnahme sind alle sechs Hundekinder zugänglich, unkompliziert und extrem freundlich. Jede Streicheleinheit und jedes liebe Wort saugen sie förmlich auf und lassen ihre Augen leuchten. Sie sind neugierig, aufgeweckt und toben bei jeder Gelegenheit ausgelassen miteinander. Auch im Umgang mit anderen Hunden zeigen sie sich offen und kontaktfreudig. Katzen kennen sie nicht. Bei Mischlingswelpen weiß man nie genau, welche Rassen in ihnen stecken oder welche Gene sich letztendlich durchsetzen – die Zeit wird es zeigen. Fest steht jedoch schon jetzt: Kuscheln liegt den Kleinen im Blut. Zierlich, mit weichem, einfarbigem Fell, leichten Schlappohren und einer dunklen Nase – so bezaubert Penelope jeden, der sie sieht. Mit ihren 3–4 kg und rund 20 cm Schulterhöhe wird sie ausgewachsen vermutlich klein bis mittelgroß bleiben. Natürlich bringt ein Welpe neben ganz viel Freude auch Verantwortung mit sich. Penelope steht noch ganz am Anfang ihres Lebens und muss das Hunde-ABC erst üben: Stubenreinheit, an der Leine laufen, alleine bleiben und all die Dinge, die ein Hund für ein entspanntes Zusammenleben braucht. Und wie bei allen Junghunden gehört auch die Pubertät dazu – eine Zeit, in der aus einem niedlichen Welpen eine kleine Persönlichkeit mit eigenen Ideen wird. Mit viel Verständnis, klaren Regeln und einem wenig Gelassenheit wird auch diese Phase gemeinsam gemeistert. Nach einer positiven Vorkontrolle und der Übernahme einer Schutzgebühr in Höhe von 500 Euro reist Penelope gechipt, geimpft, entwurmt, entfloht und mit einem EU-Heimtierausweis. Kastriert ist sie altersbedingt noch nicht. Wer möchte die süße Penelope kennenlernen und von ihrem Wesen verzaubert werden? Penelope freut sich auch über eine Pflegestelle, die ihr fürs Erste Geborgenheit und Fürsorge gibt. Vielen Dank, Loredana, dass du ihre Namenspatenschaft übernommen hast. Stand: 12.03.2026

About Penelope

What life with Penelope looks like

Penelope is a large puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Ein Herz für Streuner 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. Animals leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with a valid EU pet passport. Adoption fees usually fall between €250 and €450, covering veterinary preparation.
