Adopt SAMANTA

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 2 years

Estimated Birth Date: March 2024 Brief Info: friendly, approachable, cuddly, energetic, curious, initially unsure, male dogs+ The male dog SAMANTA was sighted wandering around the grounds of a hunting community for several days in early March 2026 in search of food. The men were unable to lure the anxious female dog, but one night she entered a live trap that had been set there, and the hunters notified the animal shelter. At first, the frightened SAMANTA hid in her hut and growled when approached. She likely had more bad than good experiences with people in her past. However, of course, the caretakers took care of the pretty snout and she soon developed trust. Now, the sweet SAMANTA has developed into a friendly, approachable, and cuddly little girl dog that is happy to be taken out for walks when they are occasionally offered. She then curiously explores her surroundings and attentively reacts to her person. In a new environment and with new people, SAMANTA needs a little time to open up, but she now builds trust rather quickly. She gets along well with male dogs and has already shown some playfulness with Casper. A test for compatibility with other female dogs has not yet been explicitly conducted, but we do not expect any problems here. Such a test will be conducted soon. Now, we are looking for a calm home for this lovable young pup with loving and dog-experienced people who want to show SAMANTA how wonderful dog life can be. Of course, she still needs to learn the full Hunde-1×1, but with your help, this will surely be successful. After her adjustment period, she will surely also look forward to beautiful excursions and small adventures, because she is still a young female dog, standing at the start of a finally wonderful and colorful life. SAMANTA will be neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, dewormed, and with an EU pet passport for her new home. Would you like to offer this charming female dog a wonderful home? We look forward to your message!

Geschätztes Geburtsdatum: März 2024 Kurzinfo: freundlich, zugewandt, verschmust, bewegungsfreudig, neugierig, anfangs noch unsicher, Rüden+ Die geschätzt im März 2024 geborene Samanta streunte Anfang März 2026 über mehrere Tage auf der Suche nach Futter um das Grundstück einer Jägergemeinschaft herum. Es gelang den Männern nicht, die ängstliche Hündin anzulocken, doch dann ging sie eines nachts in eine dort aufgestellte Lebendfalle und die Jäger verständigten das Tierheim. Anfangs versteckte sich die verschreckte Samanta in ihrer Hütte und knurrte, wenn man sich ihr näherte. Wahrscheinlich hat sie in ihrem bisherigen Leben mehr schlechte als gute Erfahrungen mit Menschen gemacht. Doch selbstverständlich kümmerten sich die Pfleger um die hübsche Fellnase und so fasste sie schon bald Vertrauen. Inzwischen hat sich die süße Samanta zu einem freundlichen, zugewandten und verschmusten Hundemädchen entwickelt, das sich freut, wenn es einmal zu einem der leider viel zu seltenen Spaziergänge herausgeholt wird. Sie erkundet dann neugierig die Umgebung und reagiert aufmerksam auf ihren Menschen. In einer neuen Umgebung und bei neuen Menschen braucht Samanta ein bisschen, um sich zu öffnen, aber eigentlich fasst sie mittlerweile schon sehr schnell Vertrauen. Mit Rüden versteht sie sich problemlos und hat im Auslauf mit Casper bereits kleine Spielansätze gezeigt. Auf Verträglichkeit mit Hündinnen wurde sie noch nicht explizit getestet, aber wir erwarten auch hier keine Schwierigkeiten. Ein solcher Test wird aber noch zeitnah nachgeholt. Nun suchen wir für diese liebenswerten Junghündin ein unaufgeregtes Zuhause bei liebevollen und hundeerfahrenen Menschen, die Samanta zeigen möchten, wie schön ein Hundeleben sein kann. Selbstverständlich muss sie das gesamte Hunde-1×1 noch lernen, aber mit Ihrer Hilfe wird dies sicher gut gelingen. Nach ihrer Eingewöhnung wird sie sich bestimmt auch über schöne Ausflüge und kleine Abenteuer freuen, denn sie ist ja noch eine junge Hündin, die in den Startlöchern für ein endlich tolles und buntes Leben steht. Samanta zieht kastriert, gechipt, geimpft, entwurmt und mit EU-Heimtierausweis in ihr neues Zuhause. Möchten Sie dieser bezaubernden Hündin ein schönes Zuhause bieten? Dann freuen wir uns über Ihre Nachricht! Am besten können Sie hierfür gleich die Selbstauskunft nutzen (oder alternativ auch das Kontaktformular).

About SAMANTA

What life with SAMANTA looks like

SAMANTA is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Pfotenretter Ungarn in Pfotenretter.

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 Switzerland

Swiss shelters require a home visit (Platzkontrolle) and proof of suitable accommodation. Cantons each have their own additional dog-keeping requirements (e.g. SKN training in some areas). Animals leave sterilized and chipped.

Frequently asked

Adopting SAMANTA, answered.

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