Wapaj

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy · 5 months

Wapaj came from an animal welfare association to the family at the age of 4-5 months. Unfortunately, she can no longer stay there due to a move. Wapaj is a very well-trained female dog who reliably masters the basic commands. She shows herself as a calm and friendly companion in everyday life, always present and well-behaved. In the car, she travels quietly. The beautiful female dog is familiar with children between 9 months and 11 years old and shows them a loving and patient behavior. She lived with 3 children in the household. The current weakness is her restlessness when left alone. She loves the proximity to her people and enjoys every bit of attention and cuddling.

DE·Show original

Wapaj kam im Alter von 4-5 Monaten von einem Tierschutzverein zur Familie. Leider kann sie dort aufgrund eines Umzugs nicht bleiben. Wapaj ist eine sehr gut erzogene Hündin, die die Grundkommandos zuverlässig beherrscht. Sie zeigt sich im Alltag als ausgeglichener und freundlicher Begleiter, der gerne überall dabei ist und sich tadellos benimmt. Im Auto fährt sie ruhig mit. Die bildschöne Hündin ist mit Kindern im Alter zwischen 9 Monaten bis 11 Jahre vertraut und zeigt ihnen gegenüber ein liebevolles und geduldiges Verhalten. Sie lebte mit 3 Kindern im Haushalt. Einziger derzeitiger Schwachpunkt ist ihre Unruhe beim Alleinebleiben. Sie liebt die Nähe zu ihren Menschen und genießt jede Aufmerksamkeit und ausgiebiges Kuscheln.

About Wapaj

What life with Wapaj looks like

Wapaj is a puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Tierhilfe Franken e.V. in Lauf.

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. 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 Wapaj, answered.

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