Sally

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 6 years

Sally was actually living a good life in Romania. The female dog lived on a farm until her owner suddenly passed away. Sally was left alone and waited for her owner to return. However, the neighbors tried to force her to leave the place that was her home. But Sally stayed. Before worse happened, our Romanian animal welfare colleagues Adelina and Dorin intervened and brought her to their shelter. Here Sally shows herself to be very friendly in dealing with people, seeking their contact and enjoying petting very much. She is also good with other dogs. Our animal welfare colleagues describe Sally as a lively and energetic dog. They are already training her to walk on a leash, which is already quite successful.

DE·Show original

Eigentlich hatte Sally ein gutes Zuhause in Rumänien. Die Hündin lebte dort auf einem Hof bis ihre Besitzerin plötzlich verstarb. Sally blieb allein zurück und wartete darauf, dass ihr Frauchen zurückkam. Doch die Nachbarn versuchten sie mit allen Mitteln von dem Ort, der ihr Zuhause war, zu vertreiben. Doch Sally blieb. Bevor Schlimmeres passierte schritten unsere rumänischen Tierschutzkollegen Adelina und Dorin ein und holten sie zu sich. Hier zeigt sich Sally im Umgang mit Menschen sehr freundlich, sucht deren Kontakt und genießt Streicheleinheiten sehr. Auch mit den anderen Hunden ist sie gut verträglich. Unsere Tierschutzkollegen beschreiben Sally als temperamentvollen und bewegungsfreudigen Hund. Sie üben mit ihr bereits das Gehen an der Leine, was schon ganz passabel gelingt.

About Sally

What life with Sally looks like

Sally is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Waisenhunde e.V. in Wöllstadt.

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 Germany

German rescues typically require an in-person home visit (Vorkontrolle) or detailed video home check before approving adoption. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

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. Waisenhunde e.V. 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 — Waisenhunde 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
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 Waisenhunde e.V. 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.
