Reina

Podenco · Female · Senior · 8 years

Reina is a sweet and friendly Podenca Ibicenca. At eight years old, she is a wonderful female dog in her prime. She may not be as energetic as she used to be, but she is still fit enough to experience many adventures with her human. Of course, she needs to learn what life with humans is like. She needs time and love to find a home. Who will give the sweet Reina this chance? Taking care of a shelter dog is always a special challenge. The dogs bring a backpack of past experiences or unlearned situations with them and need time to adjust to their new lives. Would you take on the challenge and give the sweet female dog a home? Reina would also be happy in a foster home.

Reina ist eine süße und freundliche Podenca Ibicenca. Mit ihren acht Jahren ist sie tolle Hündin im allerbesten Alter. Sie ist nicht mehr zu quirlig unterwegs und dennoch fit genug, um mit ihrem Menschen viele Abenteuer zu erleben. Natürlich muss sie dazu das Leben beim Menschen kennenlernen. Sie braucht Zeit und Liebe, um in einem Zuhause anzukommen. Wer gibt der süßen Reina diese Chance? Die Verantwortung für einen Tierschutzhund ist immer eine besondere Herausforderung. Die Hunde bringen einen Rucksack mit vergangenen Erlebnissen oder ungelernten Situationen mit und brauchen Zeit sich an ihr neues Leben zu gewöhnen. Möchten Sie die Herausforderung annehmen und der süßen Hündin ein Zuhause schenken? Auch über eine Pflegestelle würde Reina sich freuen. Hier geht’s zu Reinas Video Hier geht’s zu Video 2

About Reina

What life with Reina looks like

Reina is a senior podenco dog waiting at SALVA Hundehilfe e.V. in Germany.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇩🇪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 Reina, answered.

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