Sol

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 2 months

Blind = Todesurteil? Stell Dir vor, Du bist ganz neu in dieser Welt. Du kannst nichts sehen, aber das ist gar nicht so schlimm, denn Deine Nase funktioniert ausgezeichnet. Du kennst alle, die stets um Dich herum sind – Deine Mama, Deine Geschwister. Deine Welt ist weich und warm. Aber da gibt es so einen Riesen, der riecht nicht nach Familie. Aber auch ihn erkennst Du am Geruch. Und plötzlich nimmt er Dich Deiner Mama weg. Zwar sind seine Hände warm, aber es ist nicht das gleiche wie die Wärme Deiner Familie. Und dann setzt der Riese Dich in so ein lautes Ding, das wackelt und stinkt, und bringt Dich an einen Ort, der ganz seltsam riecht – nach Medizin und Angst. Und sagt zu einem anderen Riesen, dass Du nicht mehr leben darfst. Dass Du sterben sollst, ganz allein an diesem fremden, furchteinflößenden Ort … Würdest Du Dir nicht auch wünschen, dass jemand Dich rettet? Genau das hat Laysa getan. Sie hat den etwa acht Wochen alten, blinden Welpen gerettet, denn auch er verdient ein glückliches Leben. Sie hat ihn Sól (Sonne) genannt in der Hoffnung, dass er ganz schnell zum Sonnenschein einer liebevollen Familie wird. Zwar stehen noch verschiedene Untersuchungen an, und noch ist der Kleine zu jung, um zu reisen, doch wir suchen dringend ein Zuhause für den kleinen Knopf. Weil in Spanien gerade wieder das Parvovirus umgeht, kann er auf keinen Fall ins Refugio und wird erst einmal von einer Pflegefamilie aufgenommen, doch auch das ist nur eine kurzfristige Lösung. Wer kann helfen? Wer ist bereit, dem kleinen Sól ein Zuhause zu schenken?

About Sol

What life with Sol looks like

Sol is a extra-large puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Step by Paw 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Sol, answered.

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