Valentin

Border Collie · Male · Young · 2 years

Name: Valentin Breed: Border Collie Gender: male Size: approx. 52 cm Age: 31.01.2024 Weight: approx. 18 kg Child-friendly: Yes, gets along well with larger fellow animals: Yes gets along well with cats: Yes, cat must be neutered: Yes Vet information: microchipped, vaccinated, dewormed, EU-Pass Mediterranean test: negative Remarks: Paw help Saxony Current location: Germany / Saxony Euro incl. transport Last update: May 2026 Long was it quiet around me, now it's time to let people hear from me again. I wasn't idle during my winter break! I've really learned to love the snow here; there's nothing better than frolicking through the white wetness with my canine buddies. I've also put on some weight and, as the caretaker lady says, I'm at my ideal weight, not 90-60-90 but my normal weight. I'm still training diligently on signals, and I can already show quite a repertoire, so communication between two-legged and four-legged beings works well. All I really want now is my own true family, one that goes through thick and thin with me. Of course, I'm doing great in the foster family, but if I could share cuddles with six other four-legged beings instead of just one, that would be wonderful. My caretaker lady can't understand why no one has clicked yet, she always says I'm such a great boy and that I've learned so much and am no longer a blank slate but a polished rough diamond that still needs to be refined. So if you are exactly the one who feels addressed and think Valentin could complete your family, write to the association and I look forward to getting to know you better, because I have to admit that takes some time. See you soon, yours Valentin Application at www.pfotenhilfe-sachsen. Gets along with other dogs.

Transport letztes Update: Mai 2026 Lange war es ruhig um mich, nun ist es wieder an der Zeit, mal was von mir hören zu lassen. Ich war in meiner Winterpause nicht untätig! Ich habe hier den Schnee richtig lieben gelernt, es gibt nichts Schöneres als mit meinen Hundekumpels durchs weiße Nass zu toben. Ich habe auch weiter an Gewicht zugelegt und wie sagt das Pflegefrauchen jetzt hab ich Idealmaße, also nicht 90-60-90 sondern mein Normalgewicht. Ich trainiere weiterhin fleißig Sichtzeichen und kann da schon ein ordentliches Repertoire aufweisen, so funktioniert auch die Kommunikation zwischen den Zweibeinern und mir. Was ich mir jetzt nur wünsche, meine richtige eigene Familie, die mit mir durch Dick und Dünn geht. Klar geht's mir super in der Pflegefamilie, aber wenn ich die Streicheleinheiten nur mit einem weiteren Vierbeiner teilen muss und nicht mit sechs weiteren, das wäre so toll. Mein Pflegefrauchen kanns auch nicht verstehen, dass bei noch keinem der richtige Funke übergesprungen ist, sie sagt immer ich bin so ein toller Bub und mittlerweile hab ich schon so viel gelernt und bin kein unbeschriebenes Blatt mehr aber ein angeschliffener Rohdiamant, den es weiter zu schleifen gilt. Also falls du ja genau du dich jetzt angesprochen fühlst, und du denkst Valentin könnte unsere Familie komplettieren schreib an den Verein und ich freu mich, wenn wir uns etwas näher beschnuppern könnten, denn das muss ich zugeben braucht bei mir etwas. Bis bald euer Valentin Bewerbung unter www.pfotenhilfe-sachsen.de

About Valentin

What life with Valentin looks like

Valentin is a young adult border collie dog waiting at Notfellchen Rumänien e.V. in Germany.

An young 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 Valentin, answered.

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