How do I contact the shelter about Sammy?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Helfende Hände e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Sammy on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Sammy if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Helfende Hände 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 Sammy 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 Sammy 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 Helfende Hände e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Sammy and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.

Sammy

Belgian Malinois · Female · Young · 1 year

Sammy ID No.: 1047758 Breed: Malinois-German Shepherd mix Age: *approx. 12/2025 Sex: female Shoulder height: still growing Neutered/Spayed: No Location: Marbella (Spain) Inquiry form Sammy – clever and agile – truly thrives when given a task Meet Max, Sammy, Harry, Poppy, and Roxy! This adorable litter – two boys (Max and Harry) and three girls (Sammy, Poppy, and Roxy) – was surrendered to our partner shelter TripleA in Marbella in early February at just a few weeks old, severely underweight, frightened, and some with wounds. They were apparently found in the trash—a heartbreaking fate shared by many unwanted puppies. Fortunately, a loving and highly experienced foster home quickly stepped in for this lively little crew, where they are now learning everything they need to prepare for life with their own forever families. Max, Sammy, Harry, Poppy, and Roxy are stunning Malinois-German Shepherd mixes; some display more classic German Shepherd traits, while others show the spirited characteristics of the Malinois. Their unique personalities are increasingly shining through. All five adore cuddling and are playfully typical puppies—but it’s important to remember that, due to their breed heritage, they are also energetic working dogs who require appropriate physical and mental stimulation. Sammy is an exceptionally bright little girl—likely the cleverest and most agile of the litter. Even during her recovery from parvovirus, her intelligence and impressive focus stood out. Quick and nimble as a cat, she loves exuberant chase games and truly blossoms when given a job to do. She needs an active, dedicated owner who can keep up with her sharp mind and boundless energy. This sweet quintet is now ready for their forever homes. Since they were born around late December 2025, they can travel abroad starting late April. For the lively Sammy, we’re seeking a loving home with people who understand that a puppy needs time, training, closeness, and consistent guidance. We hope for an active family—ideally with prior experience handling this breed—who will provide Sammy with both physical exercise and mental challenges, and who wants to explore the world and share countless adventures together. Could you be that person? We’d love to hear from you! Sammy will travel vaccinated, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport. At the time of travel arrangements, she will be prophylactically dewormed and treated for fleas. Our puppies are rehomed exclusively under a spay/neuter agreement. Vaccinations: Yes Mediterranean disease screening: No Microchip: Yes Known illnesses: None Restricted breed: No Transport included Contact: Kris Melka Email:

SammyRESERVIERT ID-Nr: 1047758 Rasse: Malinois-Schäferhund-Mischling Alter: *ca. 12/2025 Geschlecht: weiblich Schulterhöhe: wächst noch Kastriert/Sterilisiert: Nein Aufenthalt / Ort: Marbella (Spanien) Anfrageformular Sammy – klug und agil – blüht auf, wenn sie eine Aufgabe hat Hier kommen Max, Sammy, Harry, Poppy und Roxy! Dieser süße Wurf – zwei Buben (Max und Harry) und drei Mädels (Sammy, Poppy und Roxy) wurde Anfang Februar im Alter von nur wenigen Wochen in unserem Partnertierheim TripleA in Marbella abgegeben, sehr dünn, verängstigt, einige von ihnen mit Wunden. Offenbar wurden sie im Müll gefunden – ein trauriges Schicksal, das sie mit vielen ungewollten Welpen teilen. Zum Glück fand sich schnell eine liebe und sehr erfahrene Pflegestelle für die muntere kleine Bande, in der sie nun ganz viel lernen und auf ein Leben mit ihren eigenen Familien vorbereitet werden. Max, Sammy, Harry, Poppy und Roxy sind bildschöne Malinois-Schäferhund-Mischlinge, von denen einige eher die klassischen Merkmale eines Deutschen Schäferhunde zeigen, andere hingegen die temperamentvollen Eigenschaften eines Malinois. Ihre einzigartigen Persönlichkeiten kommen immer mehr zum Vorschein. Alle Fünf lieben es sehr zu kuscheln und zeigen sich welpentypisch verspielt, aber natürlich darf man nicht vergessen, dass sie rassebedingt auch energiegeladene Arbeitshunde sind, die eine entsprechende Auslastung und Aufgabe brauchen. Sammy ist ein wirklich brillantes, kleines Mädchen, wohl die klügste und agilste des Wurfs. Auch während ihrer Genesung von der Parvovirose stachen bereits ihre Intelligenz und ihre beeindruckende Konzentrationsfähigkeit hervor. Sie ist schnell und wendig wie eine Katze, liebt ausgelassene Fangspiele und blüht auf, wenn sie eine Aufgabe hat. Sie sucht einen aktiven, engagierten Besitzer, der mit ihrem wachen Verstand und ihrer überschäumenden Energie mithalten kann. Das süße Quintett ist nun bereit für eine eigene Familie. Da sie ca. Ende Dezember 2025 geboren wurden, können sie ab Ende April ausreisen. Für die aufgeweckte Sammy suchen wir ein liebevolles Zuhause, mit Menschen, die wissen, dass ein Welpe Zeit, Erziehung, Nähe und konsequente Begleitung braucht. Wir wünschen uns eine aktive Familie – idealerweise vielleicht auch bereits mit Erfahrungen mit dieser Rasse – die Sammy körperlich und geistig auslastet und gemeinsam mit ihr die Welt erkunden und viele Abenteuer erleben möchte. Möchten Sie dieser Mensch sein? Dann freuen wir uns auf Ihre Kontaktaufnahme. Sammy reist geimpft, gechipt und hat einen EU-Heimtierausweis. Bei Ausreise wird sie prophylaktisch entwurmt und entfloht. Unsere Welpen werden ausschließlich mit Kastrationsauflage vermittelt. Impfungen Ja Mittelmeercheck Nein Microchip Ja Krankheiten Keine bekannt Anlagehund Nein Schutzgebühr 500 € inkl. Transport Ansprechpartner Kris Melka Email: Anfrageformular

About Sammy

What life with Sammy looks like

Sammy is a young adult belgian malinois dog waiting at Helfende Hände e.V. in Germany.

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.
