How do I contact the shelter about PINA?

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

Can I adopt PINA if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Arche Noah Transilvania 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 PINA 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 PINA 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 Arche Noah Transilvania e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know PINA 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.

PINA

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy · 3 months

Pina and her four siblings were abandoned in a sealed bag when they were barely two weeks old. Through great luck and a lot of luck, our volunteers found them and immediately brought them to safety. Since then, all five have developed wonderfully and have long since replaced the bottle with solid food. So there is nothing standing in the way of finding their forever home. With us, the little ones were already allowed to meet all sizes and ages of their kind and thus receive the basics of successful socialization. They are also familiar with life in the house, even together with cats. Pina and her siblings are very people-oriented and playful for their age. Pina is a bit more reserved compared to others and likes to let others take precedence in new situations. We are now looking for a home for Pina where she can experience loving but equally consistent upbringing. The young dog would be happy to move in with motivated dog beginners, provided that competent dog trainer supervision is guaranteed at the beginning so that no mistakes creep into her upbringing. A confident first dog would certainly make it easier for Pina to start her new life, but this is not a prerequisite for adoption.

Pina und und ihre vier Geschwister wurden in einer zugeschnürten Tüte ausgesetzt, als sie kaum zwei Wochen alt waren. Durch einen großen Zufall und ganz viel Glück haben unsere Volontäre sie gefunden und daraufhin natürlich sofort in Sicherheit gebracht. Seitdem haben sich alle fünf ganz wundervoll entwickelt und das Fläschchen längst gegen feste Nahrung ersetzt. Der Suche nach dem Für-immer-Zuhause steht also nichts mehr im Weg. Bei uns durften die Kleinen bereits Artgenossen aller Größen und jeden Alters kennenlernen und damit die Grundlagen einer erfolgreichen Sozialisierung erhalten. Das Leben im Haus, auch gemeinsam mit Katzen, kennen sie durch die Handaufzucht ebenfalls. Pina und ihre Geschwister sind sehr menschenbezogen und alterstypisch verspielt. Pina ist im Vergleich etwas zurückhaltender und lässt den anderen gerne den Vortritt in neuen Situationen. Für Pina suchen wir nun ein Zuhause, in dem sie eine liebevolle, aber ebenso konsequente Erziehung erfahren darf. Gerne darf die junge Hündin zu motivierten Hundeanfängern ziehen, sofern zu Beginn die Betreuung durch einen kompetenten Hundetrainer gewährleistet ist, damit sich keine Fehler in die Erziehung einschleichen können. Ein souveräner Ersthund würde Pina den Start in ihr neues Leben sicher erleichtern, ist aber keine Voraussetzung für eine

About PINA

What life with PINA looks like

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