Sally

Labrador Retriever · Female · Adult · 6 years

Sally ist eine wunderschöne Mischlingshündin, die gemeinsam mit ihren Brüdern Bussi und Jonte bereits als Welpe ins rumänische Tierheim Năsăud kam. Seitdem kennt sie nichts anderes als den lauten und eintönigen Tierheimalltag. Viele Jahre sind vergangen, ohne dass Sally jemals erfahren durfte, wie es sich anfühlt, Teil einer eigenen Familie zu sein und echte Geborgenheit zu erleben. Die sensible Hündin zeigt sich Menschen gegenüber vorsichtig und zurückhaltend. Neue Situationen und fremde Menschen verunsichern sie anfangs, weshalb sie Zeit braucht, um Vertrauen aufzubauen. Sally gehört nicht zu den Hunden, die sofort auf Menschen zugehen – sie beobachtet lieber erst aus sicherer Entfernung und versucht, die Situation einzuschätzen. Doch hinter ihrer schüchternen Art steckt eine sanfte Seele, die sich eigentlich nach Sicherheit, Ruhe und Nähe sehnt. Wenn Sally merkt, dass man ihr Zeit gibt und sie nicht bedrängt, beginnt sie langsam aufzutauen. Kleine Fortschritte bedeuten bei ihr besonders viel und zeigen, dass sie bereit ist, Schritt für Schritt Vertrauen zuzulassen. Gerade diese vorsichtigen Annäherungen machen sie zu einer ganz besonderen Hündin. Im stressigen Tierheimalltag fehlt leider die Möglichkeit, individuell auf Sally einzugehen und ihr die Sicherheit zu geben, die sie dringend bräuchte, um sich weiterzuentwickeln. Deshalb wünschen wir uns für sie Menschen mit Geduld, Einfühlungsvermögen und Verständnis, die keinerlei Erwartungen an sie stellen und ihr die Zeit geben, in ihrem eigenen Tempo anzukommen. Ein ruhiges Zuhause in eher ländlicher Umgebung wäre für Sally ideal. Ein souveräner Ersthund könnte ihr zusätzlich helfen, sich schneller zurechtzufinden und Vertrauen in den Alltag zu gewinnen. Erfahrung mit unsicheren Hunden wäre natürlich von Vorteil, wichtiger sind jedoch Ruhe, Geduld und die Bereitschaft, Sally liebevoll zu begleiten.

About Sally

What life with Sally looks like

Sally is a adult labrador retriever dog waiting at Arme Hundeseelen in Năsăud.

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 Romania

Romanian rescues handle the highest volume of cross-border adoptions in the EU. Animals are quarantined and fully vetted before transport. Reputable rescues maintain detailed health records and post-adoption follow-up.

Frequently asked

Adopting Sally, answered.

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