Petunia

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 4 years

Petunia, eine aufgeschlossene und freundliche Hündin, stammt aus einer Tötungsstation und lebt nun auf unserer Pflegestelle in Rumänien. Sie zeigt sich menschenbezogen und reagiert dort offen. Sie ist aktiv, verspielt und zeigt in der dortigen Hundegruppe keine Auffälligkeiten. Da könnte Petunia noch nicht viele Erfahrungen sammeln durfte, muss ihre zukünftige Familie eine längere Eingewöhnungsphase in Deutschland in Betracht ziehen. Petunia hat zwar ein offenes Wesen, braucht aber die richtige Anleitung und notwendige Ruhe, um dazulernen zu können. Sie muss, wie fast alle Hunde aus dem Tierschutz, an alles Neue souverän und behutsam herangeführt werden. Wir suchen daher Menschen, die bereit sind, Petunia zu fördern und ihre Bedürfnisse gut einschätzen können. Wenn Sie nach einer Begleiterin suchen und Lust haben, mit Petunia gemeinsam zu arbeiten, zögern Sie nicht, sich bei uns zu melden! Nach einer positiven Vorkontrolle und gegen eine Schutzgebühr von 495 Euro darf sich Petunia geimpft, entwurmt, gechippt, kastriert und mit eigenem EU-Ausweis auf den Weg zu Ihnen machen.

About Petunia

What life with Petunia looks like

Petunia is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein SpecialDogs e.V. in Germany.

An 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 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Petunia, answered.

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