Solea

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 8 years

At the animal shelter since: January 2025 Estimated age: born around January 2018 Estimated shoulder height: about 60 – 69 cm Get to know Solea in further videos! Cuddle mouse Solea is looking for her heart's people! Solea came to our animal shelter because her owner could no longer take care of her due to health reasons. Learn more about dogs in Romania in our animal protection FAQ. Solea is a very people-oriented female dog who is visibly happy about visits and immediately seeks contact. As soon as you enter her area, she comes directly to the door, wags her tail strongly, and politely approaches the people to get close. She enjoys cuddles and actively requests them - for example, by coming closer or gently nudging with her paw. In direct interaction, Solea shows herself to be generally cooperative and uncomplicated: she lets herself be touched everywhere and reacts calmly. She particularly likes to be rubbed on the belly and often lies on her side or back for that. Putting on the harness works smoothly. During walks or at the playground, she is always attentive and calm. She walks around quietly, comes back regularly, and actively seeks contact in between. Solea is generally friendly with other dogs, but prefers personal distance and feels uncomfortable when fellow animals come too close. With enough space, she remains relaxed and approachable. Solea suffers from a grade 2 mast cell tumor. Our adoption team knows best about her exact health condition. If you have any questions, feel free to send us a message. For Solea, we are looking for a home with people who appreciate her strong bond with humans and at the same time give her clear, calm orientation. An ideal environment would be a quiet one where she can enjoy relaxed walks and dog encounters can be managed with some distance. We wish for this furry nose people who are aware that rescue dogs bring along a certain history. We can never predict how a dog will react to life in Germany. That's why we are looking for people who bring patience, perseverance, and goodwill. Already smitten? Send us a self-disclosure form! Adoption If you are considering an adoption, read through the adoption process first. All dogs are vaccinated, microchipped, dewormed, treated for fleas, and neutered (exceptions are puppies up to 6 months and very old dogs). Dogs older than 1 year are also tested for Mediterranean diseases. If you have any questions, feel free to write our adoption team a message.

Im Tierheim seit: Januar 2025 Geschätztes Alter: geb. ca. Januar 2018 Geschätzte Schulterhöhe: ca. 60 – 69 cm Lerne hier Solea in weiteren Videos kennen! Kuschelmaus Solea sucht ihre Herzensmenschen! Solea kam in unser Tierheim, weil ihre Besitzerin sich aus gesundheitlichen Gründen leider nicht mehr um sie kümmern konnte. Erfahre mehr über Hunde in Rumänien in unserem Tierschutz-FAQ . Solea ist eine sehr menschenbezogene Hündin, die sich über Besuch sichtlich freut und sofort den Kontakt sucht. Schon beim Betreten ihres Bereichs kommt sie direkt an die Tür, wedelt stark mit dem Schwanz und drängt sich freundlich zu den Menschen, um Nähe zu bekommen. Streicheleinheiten genießt sie sehr und fordert diese auch aktiv ein – zum Beispiel, indem sie näherkommt oder sanft mit der Pfote anstupst. Im direkten Umgang zeigt Solea sich insgesamt kooperativ und unkompliziert: Sie lässt sich überall anfassen und reagiert dabei ruhig. Besonders gern lässt sie sich am Bauch kraulen und wirft sich dafür oft direkt auf die Seite oder auf den Rücken. Das Anziehen des Geschirrs klappt problemlos. Bei Spaziergängen oder auf dem Spielplatz zeigt sie sich stets aufmerksam und gelassen. Sie läuft ruhig umher, kommt regelmäßig zurück und sucht zwischendurch aktiv Nähe. Mit anderen Hunden ist Solea grundsätzlich freundlich, wünscht sich aber persönlichen Abstand und fühlt sich unwohl, wenn Artgenossen ihr zu nah kommen. Mit genügend Raum bleibt sie entspannt und gut ansprechbar. Solea leidet an einem Mastzelltumor 2. Grades. Über den genauen Gesundheitszustand weiß unser Vermittlungsteam am besten Bescheid. Wenn du noch Fragen hast, schreib uns gern eine Nachricht . Für Solea wünschen wir uns ein Zuhause bei Menschen, die ihre starke Bindung zum Menschen schätzen und ihr gleichzeitig klare, ruhige Orientierung geben. Ideal wäre ein ruhiges Umfeld, in dem sie entspannte Spaziergänge genießen kann und Hundebegegnungen mit etwas Abstand gemanagt werden können. Wir wünschen uns für diese Fellnase Menschen, denen bewusst ist, dass Tierschutzhunde eine gewisse Geschichte mitbringen. Wir können im Tierheim nie vorhersagen, wie ein Hund auf das Leben in Deutschland reagieren wird. Deswegen suchen wir Menschen, die Geduld, Durchhaltevermögen und Wohlwollen mitbringen. Schon verliebt? Schick uns eine Selbstauskunft! Adoption Wenn du über eine Adoption nachdenkst, lies dir zunächst den Vermittlungsablauf durch. Alle Hunde werden vor der Ausreise geimpft, gechipt, entwurmt, entfloht und kastriert (Ausnahme sind Welpen bis 6 Monate und sehr alte Hunde). Hunde, die älter als 1 Jahr sind, werden zudem auf Mittelmeerkrankheiten getestet. Wenn du noch Fragen hast, schreibe unserem Vermittlungsteam gern eine Nachricht.

About Solea

What life with Solea looks like

Solea is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Hunderettung Europa e.V. in Duisburg.

An 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. 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 Solea, answered.

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