Valentin

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 10 years

Ein Labrador-Retriever in kleiner Ausführung, das ist unser Valentin. Über 10 lange Jahre lebt nun auch Valentin bereits schon im rumänischen Namaco-Tierheim und wartet sehnlichst darauf doch noch sein Glück zu finden. Wird dies für ihn und uns nur ein hoffnungsloser Wunsch bleiben? Zwar ist Valentin zu Anfang ein sehr vorsichtiger Schatz, jedoch kann man ihn unglaublich gut mit Leckerlies von sich überzeugen. Für Leckereien gibt Valentin nämlich gerne alles. Ansonsten ist er ein recht ruhiger Zeitgenosse, der gerne einfach nur das Futtern und Dösen im Kopf hat. Rennen ist etwas zu viel Sport, aber von Streicheleinheiten wird auch Valentin gewiss noch ein großer Fan werden, wenn man ihm zeigt wie es sich anfühlt. Ein Rentnerkörbchen ist alles was dieser tolle Rüde braucht. Er soll seine letzten Jahre nicht im Shelter verbringen müssen, sondern soll noch erfahren wie sich ein Zuhause anfühlt. Valentin reist vollständig geimpft, gechippt, entwurmt, kastriert, auf Mittelmeerkrankheiten getestet und mit einem EU-Heimtierausweis in sein neues Zuhause.

About Valentin

What life with Valentin looks like

Valentin is a medium-sized senior mixed breed dog waiting at Tiernothilfe Zweite Chance e.V. in Bitterfeld - Wolfen.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇩🇪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. Tiernothilfe Zweite Chance 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 — Tiernothilfe Zweite Chance 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 Tiernothilfe Zweite Chance 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.
