Rosa

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy · 4 months

Rosa hat mit Sicherheit bislang kein schönes Leben gehabt. Ungefähr im Jahr 2017 müsste sie zur Welt gekommen sein. Ihre Schulterhöhe beträgt gute 60cm, das Gewicht sollte um die 30kg sein, momentan wiegt sie leider eher ein bisschen zu viel. Vorne links humpelt sie ziemlich stark, vermutlich ein alter Bruch, an dem wir nichts mehr machen können, das muss aber noch genauer abgeklärt werden. Im Dezember fand meine Freundin sie, ausgesetzt zwischen Müll mit ihren drei Welpen. Beim Tierarzt stellte sich heraus, dass sie gechipt und registriert war. Leider hatte meine Freundin so große Angst davor, dass sie zu ihrem Peiniger zurückmuss, dass sie sich mit dem herzlosen Besitzer in Verbindung setzte und Rosa kurzerhand auf ihren Namen umschreiben ließ. Als die Polizei nach Anzeige dem Ganzen nachging war er also schon rechtmäßig nicht mehr der Besitzer und leider raus aus dem Schneider. Hier ist Kastrationspflicht, und mit kaputtem Bein und Welpen einfach ausgesetzt wäre ihm ein teures Lehrgeld geworden, schade. Rosa ist eine gute Mutter, die ihre Welpen vor den anderen Hunden beschützen möchte. Als fremdem Menschen begegnete sie mir gegenüber jedoch sehr zärtlich und sichtbar stolz auf ihre kleinen Schönheiten. Sie ist äußerst verschmust, aber dabei nicht aufdringlich. Ich würde mir so sehr wünschen, dass sie auch in ihrem Alter noch ein warmes und warmherziges Plätzchen finden würde.

About Rosa

What life with Rosa looks like

Rosa is a medium-sized puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Hundehilfe Kreta 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Rosa, answered.

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