How do I contact the shelter about Simon?

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

Can I adopt Simon if I live in another country?

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

Simon

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy

Simon - mixed-breed puppy wants to arrive Simon is one of eight mixed-breed puppies who came to the shelter in July 2026. Together with his siblings Rodri, Olmo, Cucurella, Cubarsi, and Merina, he was abandoned as a small puppy. Simon is still waiting for his family in the shelter. He is at an age where he should be learning about his surroundings, playing, and learning a lot. Instead, he spends his puppy time in the shelter waiting for someone to discover him. Simon is expected to grow to a medium to large size. His future owners should therefore consider that the little male will become a larger dog with corresponding space, exercise, and activity needs. A puppy is only small and cute for a short time. Then the sometimes turbulent puppy time begins - and the sweet baby becomes an adult dog who wants to accompany his humans for many years. Adoption should therefore be a conscious decision for the whole dog's life. For Simon, we are looking for people who will give him a safe home, raise him with calm and patience, and show him the world. He should finally get out of the shelter and grow up as a beloved family member. Rodri, Olmo, Cubarsi, and Merina are also still waiting for their chance. Here's Simon's video Here's Video 2

Simon – Mischlingswelpe möchte endlich ankommen Simon ist einer von acht Mischlingswelpen, die im Juli 2026 ins Tierheim kamen. Gemeinsam mit seinen Geschwistern Rodri, Olmo, Cucurella, Cubarsi und Merina wurde er bereits als kleiner Welpe ausgesetzt. Noch immer wartet Simon im Tierheim auf seine Familie. Dabei ist er in einem Alter, in dem er eigentlich seine Umgebung kennenlernen, spielen und ganz viel lernen sollte. Stattdessen verbringt er seine Welpenzeit im Tierheim und wartet darauf, dass jemand ihn entdeckt. Simon wird voraussichtlich mittelgroß bis groß werden. Seine zukünftigen Menschen sollten deshalb bedenken, dass aus dem kleinen Rüden ein größerer Hund mit entsprechendem Platz-, Bewegungs- und Beschäftigungsbedarf wird. Ein Welpe ist nur für kurze Zeit klein und niedlich. Danach beginnt die manchmal turbulente Junghundezeit – und aus dem süßen Baby wird ein erwachsener Hund, der seine Menschen viele Jahre begleiten möchte. Die Adoption sollte deshalb eine bewusste Entscheidung fürs ganze Hundeleben sein. Für Simon suchen wir Menschen, die ihm ein sicheres Zuhause schenken, ihn mit Ruhe und Geduld erziehen und ihm die Welt zeigen. Er soll endlich aus dem Tierheim herauskommen und als geliebtes Familienmitglied aufwachsen dürfen. Auch Rodri, Olmo, Cubarsi und Merina warten noch auf ihre Chance.

About Simon

What life with Simon looks like

Simon is a small puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at SALVA Hundehilfe 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.
