The adorable Slater and his five siblings had an extremely difficult start to life. As an unwanted litter in Romania, the puppies were stuffed into a sack just a few weeks old, tightly tied shut, and simply abandoned in the winter snow by the roadside. By the time they were accidentally found by animal rescuers, they’d probably already been enduring this fate for about two days. Unfortunately, one of the six babies didn’t survive. The other five fighters have recovered splendidly at the home of a Romanian veterinarian and animal protector—they’ve grown strong and are thriving. Recently, Slater—just like his four siblings before him—was able to join the sweet young female dog Blanca on their journey to Germany. The two are currently living together at a foster home in Offenbach am Main. For his tender age, Slater has a calm demeanor. He’s reserved and first carefully assesses the situation—so he’s no daredevil. The foster home describes him as a truly sweet little guy who will surely bring a lot of joy to his future owners. However, potential adopters should be aware that Slater can’t yet do much on his own and will need to be lovingly but consistently integrated into his new home. Slater can be visited in 63071 Offenbach am Main. • Gender: male • Breed: mixed breed (parents unknown) • Height: currently 40 cm • Location: 63071 Offenbach am Main Could Slater enrich your family?

Der niedliche Slater und seine fünf Geschwister hatten einen äußerst schweren Start ins Leben. Als ungewollter Wurf in Rumänien wurden die Welpen im Alter von wenigen Wochen in einen Sack gesteckt, der fest zugebunden wurde, und einfach im Winter im Schnee am Straßenrand entsorgt. Bis sie per Zufall von Tierschützern gefunden wurden, mussten sie vermutlich schon ca. zwei Tage so ausharren. Eines der sechs Babys hatte dies leider nicht überlebt. Die anderen fünf Kämpfer haben sich im Haus einer rumänischen Tierärztin und Tierschützerin prächtig erholt, sind gewachsen und gedeiht. Slater durfte sich kürzlich – wie schon seine vier Geschwister zuvor – zusammen mit der niedlichen Junghündin Blanca auf die Reise nach Deutschland machen. Die beiden leben derzeit zusammen auf einer Pflegestelle in Offenbach am Main. Für sein zartes Alter hat Slater ein ruhiges Wesen. Er ist zurückhaltend und sondiert erst einmal die Lage – also kein Draufgänger. Die Pflegestelle beschreibt ihn als ganz lieben kleinen Kerl, an dem die zukünftigen Besitzer sicherlich viel Freude haben werden. Interessenten sollten sich aber bewusst sein, dass Slater noch nichts „kann“ und mit liebevoller Konsequenz in sein zukünftiges Zuhause integriert werden muss. Slater kann in 63071 Offenbach am Main besucht werden. • Geschlecht: männlich • Rasse: Mischling (Eltern unbekannt) • Größe: aktuell 40 cm • Aufenthaltsort: 63071 Offenbach am Main Slater könnte deine Familie bereichern?

About Slater

What life with Slater looks like

Slater is a small puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Free Dogs - Vergessene Tiere in Not e.V. in Großefehn.

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 Slater, answered.

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