Valera

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Puppy · 8 months

Valera, born approximately March 2026, unspayed, medium-sized breed, in shelter since April 2026. Valera is a gentle, loving puppy with a special character. She was found alone with her sister and was fortunately brought to safety in our shelter. The little fighter has already survived a parvovirus disease and had to recover from the consequences for a long time. In the meantime, she has also overcome this. Valera is happiest when she can play with her friends or receive extra pets from our volunteers. During the day, Valera is allowed to run freely with her sister in front of the shelter. This has a practical reason: the little female dog are true climbing artists. Since they have become curious and want to discover the world, they now overcome the temporary fence of their container with amazing skill. Valera gets along very well with other dogs. She shows no fear of larger dogs, but plays with dogs of her size. Her sweetest playmate and cuddle partner, however, is still her sister Vicky. Due to an accident in June 2026, Valera broke her leg and hip. Both were successfully operated and stabilized. According to the veterinarian, she should not have any lasting damage from this. Current status 07/26: She still has the cast on, if interested, please ask and we will send an up-to-date video. Currently in Romania and allowed to travel out if a home is found. Travels chipped and vaccinated (EU vaccination passport; vaccinations: rabies and basic immunization). All dogs are spayed or neutered at the age of 7 to 9 months. 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.

07/2026 Valera, geboren ca. 03/2026, unkastriert, mittel-groß werdend, im Shelter seit 04/2026 Valera ist ein sanfter, liebevoller Welpe mit einem ganz besonderen Wesen. Gemeinsam mit ihrer Schwester wurde sie mutterseelenallein gefunden und konnte zum Glück in unserem Shelter in Sicherheit gebracht werden. Die kleine Kämpferin hat bereits eine Parvovirus-Erkrankung überstanden und musste sich lange von den Folgen erholen. Inzwischen hat sie auch diese überwinden können. Am glücklichsten ist Valera, wenn sie mit ihren Freunden spielen kann oder sie extra Streicheleinheiten von unseren Volontären bekommt. Tagsüber darf Valera mit ihrer Schwester frei vor dem Shelter laufen. Das hat einen ganz praktischen Grund: Die kleinen Hündinnen sind wahre Kletterkünstlerinnen. Da sie neugierig geworden sind und die Welt entdecken möchten, überwinden sie den provisorischen Zaun ihres Containers inzwischen mit erstaunlichem Geschick. Mit anderen Hunden ist Valera sehr gut verträglich. Sie zeigt keine Angst vor größeren Hunden doch mit Hunden ihrer Größe spielt sie lieber. Ihre allerliebste Spiel- und Kuschelpartnerin ist aber nach wie vor ihre Schwester Vicky. Aufgrund eines Unfalls im Juni 2026 hat Valera sich das Bein und die Hüfte gebrochen. Beides konnte jedoch erfolgreich operiert und stabilisiert werden. Laut Tierarzt soll sie dadurch später keine bleibenden Schäden haben. Aktueller Status 07/26: Sie hat den Gips noch dran, bei Interesse gerne nachfragen und wir schicken ein aktuelles Video. Befindet sich aktuell in Rumänien und darf ausreisen, wenn sie ein Zuhause gefunden hat. Reist gechipt und geimpft (EU Impfpass; Impfungen: Tollwut und Grundimmunisierung). Alle Hunde werden im Alter von 7 bis 9 Monaten kastriert. 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 Valera

What life with Valera looks like

Valera is a medium-sized puppy mixed breed dog waiting at Hope for Future e.V. in Germany.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇩🇪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 Valera, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Valera?
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 Valera on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Valera 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 Valera 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 Valera 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 Valera 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.
