Tonda

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 2 years

Tonda, born approximately December 2023, neutered, approximately 70 cm shoulder height, in the shelter since November 2025. Tonda is a young, large male with three legs. He is very affectionate, cuddly and seeks closeness - sometimes he is still not 100% sure everything is okay and needs a short moment to gain trust. With calm, clear guidance, he will open up further. Optically, Tonda is a real eye-catcher: strikingly bright and very well-groomed. He gets along well with other dogs. He has a shortened tail. This does not cause any health problems. Entry into Switzerland is therefore not possible. Since he is probably part Herding Dog, it is possible that he develops corresponding behaviors in his new home. Therefore, we are looking for a rural home with a fenced garden, preferably with people who have already gained experience with Herding Dogs or their crossbreeds and appreciate their characteristics. Currently located in Romania and allowed to leave if a home is found. Travels chipped and vaccinated (EU vaccination passport; vaccinations: rabies and basic immunization). All dogs are treated against intestinal parasites and ectoparasites at their arrival in the shelter and at least once a year thereafter. The described behavioral observations are based on everyday life in the shelter and may be different in a domestic environment under changed living conditions. The transport (registered with Traces) will be organized and carried out by us, as far as legally possible for the destination country. Please note the information on this page.

12/2025 Tonda, geboren ca. 12/2023, kastriert, ca. 70 cm Schulterhöhe, im Shelter seit 11/2025 Tonda ist ein junger, großer Rüde mit drei Beinen. Er ist sehr lieb, verschmust und sucht gerne Nähe – dabei ist er manchmal noch nicht zu 100 % sicher, ob alles in Ordnung ist, und braucht einen kurzen Moment, um Vertrauen zu fassen. Mit ruhiger, klarer Führung wird er sich weiter öffnen. Optisch ist Tonda ein echter Hingucker: auffallend hell und sehr gepflegt. Mit anderen Hunden kommt er gut zurecht. Er hat eine verkürzte Rute. Diese bereitet keinerlei gesundheitliche Beschwerden. Eine Einreise in die Schweiz ist dadurch nicht möglich Da er vermutlich zum Teil Herdenschutzhund ist, kann es sein, dass er in seinem neuen Zuhause entsprechende Verhaltensweisen entwickelt. Daher wünschen wir uns für ihn ein ländlich gelegenes Zuhause mit einem eingezäunten Garten, bestenfalls bei Menschen die bereits Erfahrung mit Herdenschutzhunden oder deren Mischlingen sammeln konnten und deren Eigenschaften zu schätzen wissen. Befindet sich aktuell in Rumänien und darf ausreisen, wenn er ein Zuhause gefunden hat. Reist gechipt und geimpft (EU Impfpass; Impfungen: Tollwut und Grundimmunisierung). Alle Hunde werden bei ihrer Ankunft im Shelter sowie anschließend mindestens einmal jährlich gegen Darmparasiten und Ektoparasiten behandelt. Die geschilderten Verhaltensbeobachtungen basieren auf dem Alltag im Shelter und können sich in einem häuslichen Umfeld unter veränderten Lebensbedingungen entsprechend anders darstellen. Der Transport (angemeldet mit Traces) wird von uns, so weit es für das Bestimmungsland rechtlich möglich ist, organisiert und durchgeführt. Bitte beachten Sie die Informationen auf dieser Seite:

About Tonda

What life with Tonda looks like

Tonda is a large young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Hope for Future e.V. in Germany.

A young 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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Tonda, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Tonda?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Hope for Future e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Tonda on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Tonda if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Hope for Future 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Tonda 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 Tonda 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 Hope for Future e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Tonda 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.
