How do I contact the shelter about Twister?

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

Can I adopt Twister if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Ein Herz für Fellnasen 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 Twister 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 Twister 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 Ein Herz für Fellnasen e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Twister 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.

Twister

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 4 years

I am Twister. ❤️ I was one of the dogs fighting for their lives in Tulcea. One of those who no one saw and who just waited for everything to be over. But then Corina Grigore came. She rescued me and 18 other souls from this hell. ❤️ I survived. Today I am at the Help Labus animal shelter. For the first time I can hope. For a home of my own. For people who look at me and don't look away. For a hand that strokes me and shows me that closeness is nothing bad. I am a people-oriented dog. I so much wish to gain trust and finally learn how love, security and belonging feel. 🥺❤️ Because I have seen how hope disappeared from the eyes of many dogs. The Dăeni killing facility was full of resignation. Illness was in the air, along with that heavy smell. And that silence... it was not peace. It was the silence of dogs who had given up and helplessly waited for their end. 💔 I was lucky. I was allowed to get out. But my story should not end here. I do not just want to survive. I want to live. I want to belong. I want to finally be someone's dog. ❤️ Maybe you are the person I have been waiting for so long? I do not promise that I can forget everything immediately. But I promise that I want to open my heart - if you give me time, patience and a lot of love. I am Twister. I survived. Now I want to finally start living. ❤️🐾

Hallo, ich bin Twister. ❤️ Ich gehörte zu den Hunden, die in Tulcea um ihr Leben kämpfen mussten. Zu denen, die niemand gesehen hat und die einfach nur darauf warteten, dass alles vorbei ist. Doch dann kam Corina Grigore. Sie hat mich und 18 weitere Seelen aus dieser Hölle gerettet. ❤️ Ich habe überlebt. Heute bin ich im Tierheim Help Labus. Zum ersten Mal darf ich hoffen. Auf ein eigenes Zuhause. Auf Menschen, die mich ansehen und nicht wegsehen. Auf eine Hand, die mich streichelt und mir zeigt, dass Nähe nichts Schlimmes ist. Ich bin ein menschenbezogener Hund. Ich wünsche mir so sehr, Vertrauen zu fassen und endlich zu erfahren, wie sich Liebe, Sicherheit und Geborgenheit anfühlen. 🥺❤️ Denn ich habe gesehen, wie die Hoffnung in den Augen vieler Hunde verschwunden ist. Das Tötungslager von Dăeni war voller Resignation. Krankheit lag in der Luft, dazu dieser schwere Geruch. Und diese Stille … sie war kein Frieden. Es war die Stille von Hunden, die aufgegeben hatten und hilflos auf ihr Ende warteten. 💔 Ich hatte Glück. Ich durfte dort heraus. Aber meine Geschichte soll hier nicht enden. Ich möchte nicht einfach nur überleben. Ich möchte leben. Ich möchte dazugehören. Ich möchte endlich jemandes Hund sein. ❤️ Vielleicht bist du der Mensch, auf den ich so lange gewartet habe? Ich verspreche dir nicht, dass ich alles sofort vergessen kann. Aber ich verspreche dir, dass ich mein Herz öffnen möchte – wenn du mir Zeit, Geduld und ganz viel Liebe schenkst. Ich bin Twister. Ich habe überlebt. Jetzt möchte ich endlich anfangen zu leben. ❤️🐾

About Twister

What life with Twister looks like

Twister is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Ein Herz für Fellnasen e.V. in Waakirchen.

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.
