How do I contact the shelter about Serena?

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

Can I adopt Serena if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — ProTier 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 Serena 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 Serena 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 ProTier e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Serena 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.

Serena

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy · 4 months

The female dog of a shepherd had given birth to her puppies. Some of the puppies were quickly given away to other shepherds. And these two little girls were left behind. The shepherd did not want to "bother" with two females, and could not "use" them. Therefore, he wanted to get rid of them as soon as possible... Before anything bad could happen to the two little ones, our partners Paola and Pierpaolo took them in to the Rescue. Here, the two puppy children are doing very well, they feel comfortable and are developing very positively. Selene and Serena, as they were named, are very affectionate, open, and people-oriented. They always look very happy when the children of the staff arrive in the afternoon to play and cuddle with them. Despite the affection and care the two puppy girls receive, the Rescue is of course not a substitute for a proper home. To allow them to experience a part of their puppyhood and imprinting phase in a family setting, we would like to bring them to Germany as soon as the legal requirements allow it. Here, Selene and Serena will then find their dream home with a close family connection with loving people. Maybe with you? If you are currently looking for a new furry family member and are aware that adoption brings not only a lot of joy but also work and great responsibility, we look forward to your message. We provide nationwide support.

Die Hündin eines Schäfers hatte ihre Welpen zur Welt gebracht. Einige der Welpen waren schnell an andere Schäfer verschenkt worden. Und diese beiden kleinen Mädchen waren übriggeblieben. Der Schäfer wollte sich mit zwei Weibchen "nicht belasten", "gebrauchen" konnte er sie nicht. Deshalb wollte er sie schnellstmöglich loswerden ... Bevor den beiden Kleinen etwas Böses passieren konnte, holten unsere Partner Paola und Pierpaolo sie zu sich ins Rescue.Hier geht es den beiden Hundekindern nun sehr gut, sie fühlen sich wohl und entwickeln sich sehr positiv. Selene und Serena, wie sie genannt wurden, sind sehr lieb, aufgeschlossen und menschenbezogen. Sie freuen sich immer sehr, wenn die Kinder der Mitarbeiterin nachmittags vor Ort sind und mit ihnen spielen und kuscheln.Trotz der Zuwendung und Fürsorge, die die beiden Hundemädchen genießen, ist das Rescue natürlich kein Ersatz für ein richtiges Zuhause. Damit sie noch einen Teil ihrer Welpenzeit und Prägephase schon in familiärem Umfeld erleben können, möchten wir sie so schnell es die gesetzlichen Vorgaben erlauben nach Deutschland holen.Hier sollen Selene und Serena dann bei lieben Menschen ihre Traumzuhause mit engem Familienanschluss finden. Vielleicht bei Ihnen?Wenn Sie gerade auf der Suche nach einem neuen fellnasigen Familienmitglied sind und Ihnen bewusst ist, dass eine Adoption nicht nur sehr viel Freude bereitet, sondern auch Arbeit und große Verantwortung mit sich bringt, freuen wir uns über Ihre Nachricht.;ra=mWir vermitteln bundesweit.Ihre Ansprechpartnerin für diese

About Serena

What life with Serena looks like

Serena is a large puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at ProTier 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.
