Adopt Sally

English Bulldog · Female · Senior · 9 years

Sally is a very friendly, open female dog who immediately wins people over with her warm nature. She loves being close, would rather accompany her person everywhere, and is happiest when she can be part of the family’s daily routine. Unfortunately, Sally cannot be left alone. She has big loss fears and quickly gets stressed when she is without her primary caregiver. Here, she needs people who work from home, take her to work with them, or are already retired. Outdoors, Sally is environmentally safe, she is on a leash and sovereign in traffic. When it comes to other dogs, Sally shows a friendly compatibility and we can also imagine her living with children. We wish for people who are aware that the French Bulldog, due to its breeding history and the associated characteristics, is prone to certain health limitations. Whoever gives this loyal soul a loving environment will receive a deeply affectionate and loving companion for life. Walks well on a leash.

Sally ist eine sehr freundliche, offene Hündin, die Menschen sofort mit ihrer warmen Art für sich gewinnt. Sie liebt Nähe, möchte ihren Menschen gern überallhin begleiten und ist am glücklichsten, wenn sie ein Teil des Familienalltags sein darf. Leider kann Sally nicht gut alleine bleiben. Sie hat große Verlustängste und gerät schnell in Stress, sobald sie ohne ihre Bezugsperson ist. Hier braucht sie Menschen, die im Homeoffice arbeiten, sie mit zur Arbeit nehmen können oder schon in Rente sind. Draußen ist Sally umweltsicher, sie ist leinenführig und souverän im Straßenverkehr. Mit anderen Hunden zeigt sich Sally nach Sympathie verträglich und auch das Zusammenleben mit Kindern können wir uns gut vorstellen. Wir wünschen uns für Sie Menschen, denen bewusst ist, dass die Französische Bulldogge aufgrund ihrer Zuchtgeschichte und der damit verbundenen Merkmale anfällig für bestimmte gesundheitliche Einschränkungen ist. Wer dieser treuen Seele ein liebevolles Umfeld schenkt, bekommt eine zutiefst anhängliche und liebevolle Gefährtin fürs Leben.

About Sally

What life with Sally looks like

Sally is a large senior english bulldog dog waiting at Tierheim Uhlenkrog Kiel in Kiel.

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 Sally, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Sally?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Uhlenkrog Kiel 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 — Tierheim Uhlenkrog Kiel 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 Tierheim Uhlenkrog Kiel 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.
