How do I contact the shelter about Perla?

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

Can I adopt Perla if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Hunderettung Europa 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 Perla 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 Perla 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 Hunderettung Europa e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Perla 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.

Perla

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy · 7 months

At the animal shelter since: April 2026 Estimated age: born around November 2025 Estimated shoulder height: ca. 40 – 49 cm Learn more about Perla in another video! Little Perla is looking for a warm spot! Perla was found as a puppy in a residential area where some wanted to drive her away. Compassionate neighbors brought her to temporary safety in their garden and eventually informed our team. For more information on how dogs end up at the animal shelter and answers to general questions, see our animal protection FAQ. Perla is a young female puppy currently fighting the aftereffects of Babesiosis. Therefore, she is currently more quiet and spends a lot of time resting and gathering new strength. When approached, she reacts friendly and wags her tail cautiously. She seeks contact in her gentle way—sniffing curiously, gently lapping at a hand, and enjoying cuddles very much. Then she lays her head in the hand and appears very relaxed. Even during feeding, she shows interest and likes to eat from the hand. Perla can be easily lifted and remains calm. Perla has a shortened tail. For Perla, we are looking for a loving home where she can arrive and enjoy the closeness to her people. We wish for this furrball people who are aware that animal protection dogs bring a certain history. We can never predict at the animal shelter how a dog will react to life in Germany. That’s why we look for people who bring patience, perseverance, and goodwill. But one thing is certain: By adopting instead of buying, you not only give a second chance to an animal but actively choose against animal suffering—and for a life with a very special companion by your side. Already in love? Send us a self-disclosure form! Adoption If you are considering adoption, read through the adoption process first. All dogs are vaccinated, microchipped, dewormed, treated for fleas, and neutered (exceptions are puppies under 6 months and very old dogs). Dogs older than 1 year are also tested for Mediterranean diseases. If you have any questions, feel free to send our placement team a message.

Im Tierheim seit: April 2026 Geschätztes Alter: geb. ca. November 2025 Geschätzte Schulterhöhe: ca. 40 – 69 cm Lerne hier Perla in einem weiteren Video kennen! Kleine Perla sucht ihr warmes Plätzchen! Perla wurde als Welpe in einem Wohngebiet gefunden, wo einige sie vertreiben wollten. Mitfühlende Anwohner brachten sie vorübergehend in ihrem Garten in Sicherheit und informierten schließlich unser Team. Mehr Informationen darüber, wie die Hunde ins Tierheim kommen und Antworten auf generelle Fragen findest du in unserem Tierschutz-FAQ . Wenn man sich ihr nähert, reagiert sie freundlich und wedelt vorsichtig mit dem Schwanz. Sie sucht Kontakt auf ihre sanfte Art – schnuppert neugierig, schleckt vorsichtig die Hand und genießt Streicheleinheiten sehr. Dann legt sie ihren Kopf in die Hand und wirkt ganz entspannt. Auch beim Füttern zeigt sie Interesse und frisst gerne aus der Hand. Perla lässt sich problemlos hochheben und bleibt dabei ruhig. Sie kommt offen auf unser Team zu und läd sanft zum Kuscheln ein. Perla hat eine verkürzte Rute und das linke Ohr ist angeschnitten. Für Perla suchen wir ein liebevolles Zuhause gesucht, in dem sie ankommen und die Nähe zu ihren Menschen genießen darf. Wir wünschen uns für diese Fellnase Menschen, denen bewusst ist, dass Tierschutzhunde eine gewisse Geschichte mitbringen. Wir können im Tierheim nie vorhersagen, wie ein Hund auf das Leben in Deutschland reagieren wird. Deswegen suchen wir Menschen, die Geduld, Durchhaltevermögen und Wohlwollen mitbringen. Aber eines ist sicher: Wer adoptiert statt kauft , schenkt nicht nur einem Tier eine zweite Chance, sondern entscheidet sich aktiv gegen Tierleid – und für ein Leben mit einem ganz besonderen Gefährten an der Seite. Schon verliebt? Schick uns eine Selbstauskunft! Adoption Wenn du über eine Adoption nachdenkst, lies dir zunächst den Vermittlungsablauf durch. Alle Hunde werden vor der Ausreise geimpft, gechipt, entwurmt, entfloht und kastriert (Ausnahme sind Welpen bis 6 Monate und sehr alte Hunde). Hunde, die älter als 1 Jahr sind, werden zudem auf Mittelmeerkrankheiten getestet. Wenn du noch Fragen hast, schreibe unserem Vermittlungsteam gern eine Nachricht.

About Perla

What life with Perla looks like

Perla is a puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Hunderettung Europa e.V. in Duisburg.

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.
