Sara

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy · 4 months

Sara was found abandoned with two siblings on the outskirts of a town on a finca. Starved, emaciated, and in a desolate state. Another big challenge for the caretakers. But for Sara and her siblings, it’s a new beginning in a better world. Sara is still a puppy and completely inexperienced when it comes to life. She needs to learn everything and has sovereign people by her side! Sara is playful and a friendly girl. The animal welfare workers say she is a Labrador crossbreed. So she has the potential to be an absolute family dog with children!

Sara wurde verlassen zusammen mit zwei Geschwistern auf einer Finca am Stadtrand gefunden. Ausgehungert, abgemagert und in einem desolaten Zustand. Wieder eine große Aufgabe für die Pfleger. Aber für Sara und ihre Geschwister ein neuer Anfang in einer besseren Welt. Sara ist ja noch ein Welpe und völlig unbedarft, was das Leben betrifft. Sie muss alles kennenlernen und braucht souveräne Menschen an ihrer Seite! Sara ist verspielt und ein freundliches Mädchen. Die Tierschützer sagen, es ist eine Labradorkreuzung. Sie hat also das Potenzial für einen absoluten Familienhund mit Kindern!

About Sara

What life with Sara looks like

Sara is a large puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Pfotenhilfe Sachsen e.V. in Germany.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇩🇪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 Sara, answered.

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