How do I contact the shelter about StellaRasse?

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

Can I adopt StellaRasse if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Elpida & Esperanza, Hoffnung für Straßenhunde 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 StellaRasse 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 StellaRasse 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 Elpida & Esperanza, Hoffnung für Straßenhunde e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know StellaRasse 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.

StellaRasse

Mixed Breed · Female

Name: Stella. Breed: mixed breed. Gender: Female Dog. Date of Birth: 01/2024. Color: Black with White. Country of Origin: Greece. Size: Large (approx. 58cm). Stella originally had a home with an older man who had lovingly cared for her. Unfortunately, her owner passed away, and the family abandoned Stella at the animal shelter. In her previous life, Stella didn't have much of a chance to learn. Despite this, she is friendly, more submissive, and initially a bit reserved. Once she builds trust, however, she thoroughly enjoys petting and cuddle sessions. Stella is a small star 🌟 waiting to be discovered. With patience, understanding, and a lot of affection, she will surely become a loyal lifelong companion. She dreams of a loving home where she can arrive, learn even more, and of course, have a cozy cuddle bed. Whoever gives Stella the chance to open her heart wins a wonderful companion for life.

About StellaRasse

What life with StellaRasse looks like

StellaRasse is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Elpida & Esperanza, Hoffnung für Straßenhunde e.V. in Heppenheim.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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.
