Silva

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 2 years

Emergency – Two forgotten souls urgently need help! A woman contacted us and told us about an elderly man who looks after 2 dogs living on an abandoned farm whose owner has passed away. Every day he prepared a broth of fat and sugar for them, in which he soaked bread, simply because he lacked the means for anything more. Of course, that was not enough, and the dogs' condition kept getting worse. The old man felt increasingly overwhelmed by the situation and confided in an acquaintance, who then called us. One of the females, Sila, is in very poor condition, with severe skin problems. Both are heavily infested with parasites. We have since secured the two girls – they are two very sweet young females, and they now need veterinary care first and foremost. Please help us provide for the two of them well and nurse them back to health; they are two very, very dear animals who truly deserve better than to vegetate in a back yard. It would be wonderful if a sponsor could be found for Silva!

Notfall – Zwei vergessene Seelen brauchen dringend Hilfe! Eine Frau kontaktierte uns und erzählte von einem alten Mann, der 2 in einem verlassenen Hof lebende Hunde versorgt, deren Besitzer verstorben ist. Täglich bereitete er ihnen eine Fett-Zucker-Brühe zu, in die er Brot tunkte, weil ihm schlicht die Mittel für mehr fehlten. Doch das reichte natürlich nicht aus, und der Zustand der Hunde wurde immer schlechter. Der alte Mann fühlte sich zunehmend überfordert mit der Situation und vertraute sich einer Bekannten an, die uns daraufhin anrief. Eine der Hündinnen, Sila, ist in sehr schlechter Verfassung, mit massiven Hautproblemen Beide sind extrem von Parasiten befallen Wir haben die zwei Mäuse inzwischen gesichert – es sind zwei sehr süsse Mädchen , und sie müssen nun als erstes tierärztlich versorgt werden. Bitte helft uns die beiden gut zu versorgen und wieder aufzupäppeln, es sind 2 sehr sehr liebe Tiere, die wirklich Besseres verdient haben als in einem Hinterhof dahinzuvegetieren. Es wäre ganz toll, wenn sich für Silva ein Pate finden würde!

About Silva

What life with Silva looks like

Silva is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Animal Hope and Liberty e.V. in Germany.

A 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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Silva, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Silva?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Animal Hope and Liberty e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Silva on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Silva if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Animal Hope and Liberty 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Silva 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 Silva 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 Animal Hope and Liberty e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Silva 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.
