PRIYA

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

PRIYA mixed breed • 06/2025 • female, spayed, medium-sized • Portugal Priya was rescued from a chain with the help of our colleague, where she had spent her life until now. As a result, she doesn't know much about the world yet – but she is eager to catch up. At first, she appears shy and submissive when there are quick movements. She gets along well with other dogs, is generally very active, and incredibly curious. It's clear that she has had very few experiences so far – which makes her joy in discovering new things even greater. Once she gains trust, she becomes very cuddly, attentive, and eager to learn. She wants to please and loves working with her people. Currently, she is still very excited during walks and pulls on the leash, which is due to her past. However, she already does many things well: she quickly learned to climb stairs with us and now manages them without any problems. Walking on a leash also works well in general – it's just that her enthusiasm sometimes gets the better of her. For Priya, we are looking for active people who enjoy patiently and lovingly showing her the world. With calm, time, and understanding, she will develop into a wonderful companion. She brings everything with her – curiosity, love of life, and the desire to learn. Now she just needs the right home.

PRIYA Mischling • 06/2025 • weiblich, kastriert mittelgroß • Portugal Priya haben wir gemeinsam mit unserer Kollegin aus der Kette gerettet, wo sie ihr bisheriges Leben verbringen musste. Entsprechend kennt sie noch nicht viel von der Welt – aber genau das möchte sie jetzt unbedingt nachholen. Anfangs zeigt sie sich schüchtern und reagiert unterwürfig bei schnellen Bewegungen. Mit anderen Hunden ist sie verträglich, insgesamt sehr aktiv und unglaublich neugierig. Man merkt ihr deutlich an, dass sie bisher kaum Erfahrungen sammeln durfte – umso größer ist ihre Freude daran, alles Neue zu entdecken. Hat sie einmal Vertrauen gefasst, zeigt sie sich sehr verschmust, aufmerksam und lernwillig. Sie möchte gefallen und arbeitet gerne mit ihren Menschen zusammen. Aktuell ist sie beim Spaziergang noch sehr aufgeregt und zieht an der Leine, was aber ihrer Vorgeschichte geschuldet ist. Dafür macht sie vieles schon richtig gut: Treppensteigen hat sie bei uns schnell gelernt und meistert diese inzwischen problemlos. Auch das Laufen an der Leine klappt grundsätzlich gut – nur ihre Begeisterung geht manchmal noch mit ihr durch. Für Priya suchen wir aktive Menschen, die Freude daran haben, ihr geduldig und liebevoll die Welt zu zeigen. Mit Ruhe, Zeit und Verständnis wird sie sich zu einer wunderbaren Begleiterin entwickeln. Sie bringt alles mit – Neugier, Lebensfreude und den Wunsch zu lernen. Jetzt fehlt ihr nur noch das passende Zuhause.

About PRIYA

What life with PRIYA looks like

PRIYA is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at 4 Happy Paws e.V. in Saal an der Donau.

An young 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 PRIYA, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about PRIYA?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. 4 Happy Paws e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw PRIYA on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt PRIYA if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — 4 Happy Paws 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 PRIYA 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 PRIYA 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 4 Happy Paws e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know PRIYA 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.
