Sam

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 2 years

Ganz allein lief Sam an einer Straße entlang, als unsere Tierschutzkollegen Adelina und Dorin ihn entdeckten. Die beiden erkannten schnell, dass Sam Hilfe brauchte, denn sein Kopf und sein Körper waren über und über mit Zecken besät. Unsere Tierschützer nahmen den jungen Rüden in ihre Obhut und kümmern sich seither liebevoll um ihn. Der freundliche Sam zeigt sich aktuell als eher ruhiger Hund, der die menschliche Zuwendung sehr genießt, diese jedoch nicht einfordert. Die anfangs notwendigen medizinischen Behandlungen ließ er geduldig und kooperativ über sich ergehen. Bei unseren rumänischen Tierschützern lebt Sam gemeinsam mit anderen Hunden am Haus. In der Hundegruppe zeigt er sich sozial und hat sich sehr gut integriert. Mit Artgenossen beiderlei Geschlechts ist er gut verträglich. Dennoch wünscht sich unser lieber Sam ein eigenes Zuhause, gern auch mit einem bereits vorhandenen, freundlichen Artgenossen. Das ist jedoch kein Muss. Ob der junge Rüde das Leben im Haus bereits kennt, können wir nicht sagen. Wahrscheinlich muss er all das erst lernen. Wir sind jedoch zuversichtlich, dass ihm das gut gelingen wird. Wenn Sie glauben, dass Sie der richtige Mensch für Sam sind, melden Sie sich gern. Sam und wir freuen uns auf Ihre Anfrage!

About Sam

What life with Sam looks like

Sam is a small young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Waisenhunde e.V. in Wöllstadt.

An young 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. 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 Sam, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Sam?
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 Sam on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Sam 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Sam 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 Sam 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 Sam 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.
