How do I contact the shelter about Shadow?

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

Can I adopt Shadow if I live in another country?

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

Shadow

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy · 5 months

♀, born ca. 4/2026, puppy-typical - affectionate - cheerful Shadow, born 4/2026 in Bulgaria, is a small mixed-breed girl who is likely to grow to a medium size. Shadow is about four months old and has already experienced more in her young life than a small puppy should. She was found alone on the street - injured and defenseless, after being attacked by stray dogs. Fortunately, Shadow was brought to safety in time and could be treated in a clinic. There she was lovingly cared for and slowly regained her strength. She has now overcome the difficult time. Today, Shadow is ready for the next big step: a loving home where she can arrive and finally experience security, safety and affection. She should be able to forget what happened to her and experience how beautiful a sheltered dog life can be. We wish for people who will meet Shadow with patience, love and understanding and give her the time she needs to gain trust. Whoever adopts Shadow gives not only a young girl a home, but also the chance at a happy, carefree life. Who wants to get to know Shadow and give her a loving forever home? Shadow is waiting vaccinated and chipped in Bulgaria for her big luck. Her biggest dream? To finally arrive and feel that she belongs. The deposit for Shadow is 580 euros. Do you want to offer Shadow a suitable home? Then contact us via the following contact form. ©2022 by Ein Freund fürs Leben e.V. Created with Wix.com

♀, geb. ca. 4/2026welpentypisch - anhänglich - fröhlichin Bulgarien Shadow, geboren 4/2026, ist ein kleines Mischlingsmädchen, was wahrscheinlich mittelgroß werden wird. Shadow ist etwa vier Monate alt und hat in ihrem jungen Leben bereits mehr durchmachen müssen, als ein kleines Hundekind erleben sollte. Ganz allein wurde sie auf der Straße gefunden – verletzt und schutzlos, nachdem sie von Straßenhunden angegriffen worden war. Glücklicherweise kam Shadow rechtzeitig in Sicherheit und konnte in einer Klinik versorgt werden. Dort durfte sie sich erholen, wurde liebevoll gepflegt und konnte langsam wieder zu Kräften kommen. Die schwere Zeit hat sie inzwischen gut überstanden. Heute ist Shadow bereit für den nächsten großen Schritt: ein liebevolles Zuhause, in dem sie ankommen darf und endlich Geborgenheit, Sicherheit und Zuwendung erfährt. Sie soll vergessen dürfen, was ihr widerfahren ist, und erfahren, wie schön ein behütetes Hundeleben sein kann. Für Shadow wünschen wir uns Menschen, die ihr mit Geduld, Liebe und Verständnis begegnen und ihr die Zeit geben, die sie braucht, um Vertrauen zu fassen. Wer Shadow adoptiert, schenkt nicht nur einem jungen Hundemädchen ein Zuhause, sondern auch die Chance auf ein glückliches, unbeschwertes Leben. Wer möchte Shadow kennenlernen und ihr ein liebevolles Für-immer-Zuhause schenken? Shadow wartet geimpft und gechipt in Bulgarien auf ihr großes Glück. Ihr größter Traum? Endlich anzukommen und zu spüren, dass sie dazugehört. Die Schutzgebühr für Shadow beträgt 580 Euro. Sie möchten Shadow ein passendes Zuhause bieten?

About Shadow

What life with Shadow looks like

Shadow is a large puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Ein Freund fürs Leben e.V. in Berlin.

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.
