Usha

Mixed Breed · Female

Usha was found in Romania with her 3 sisters and was then taken in by an animal rescuer until she received her vaccinations and was old enough to travel to Germany. Usha lives at her foster home with her sister Ulla. Here, the two also get to know other dogs, cats, and horses. Usha is initially a bit shy and reserved. Once she warms up, however, she is curious and puppyishly playful. Finally, she can explore the garden and play around joyfully. Now she just needs a forever family. We suspect that she will grow to be of medium size when fully grown. She has slightly longer legs than her sister Ulla, who we think will remain a bit smaller. If you would like to meet Usha and give her a safe forever home, we would be thrilled!

DE·Show original

Usha war mit ihren 3 Schwestern ausgesetzt in Rumänien gefunden worden und konnte dann bei einer Tierschützerin unterkommen bis sie ihre Impfungen erhalten hatte, und nun alt genug war nach Deutschland reisen zu dürfen. Usha lebt auf ihrer Pflegestelle zusammen mit ihrer Schwester Ulla. Hier lernen die beiden auch andere Hunde, Katzen und Pferde kennen. Usha ist zunächst etwas schüchtern und zurückhaltend. Wenn sie aber erstmal aufgetaut ist, dann ist sie neugierig und welpentypisch verspielt. Endlich kann sie den Garten erkunden und ausgelassen herumtoben. Nun fehlt ihr nur noch eine eigene Für-immer-Familie. Wir vermuten, dass sie ausgewachsen mittelgroß sein wird. Sie hat etwas längere Beine als ihre Schwester Ulla, die vermutlich etwas kleiner bleibt. Wenn Sie Usha kennenlernen möchten und ihr ein Zuhause in Sicherheit auf Lebenszeit schenken möchten, dann freuen wir uns riesig!

About Usha

What life with Usha looks like

Usha is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Friends for Life Germany e.V. in Hemer.

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 Usha, answered.

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