How do I contact the shelter about Wasabi?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. SALVA Hundehilfe e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Wasabi on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Wasabi if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — SALVA Hundehilfe 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 Wasabi 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 Wasabi 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 SALVA Hundehilfe e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Wasabi 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.

Wasabi

Border Collie · Male · Adult · 4 years

Wasabi longs for a chance to finally leave the animal shelter. Wasabi is a friendly, playful, and social Border Collie mixed breed. He loves walks with other dogs at the animal shelter and always seeks out contact with people. Outside of the shelter, Wasabi has known very little, which makes him unsure in new situations. With patience and loving guidance, however, he will quickly gain trust. Wasabi now runs well on a leash but still reacts sensitively to environmental stimuli. He meets familiar people affectionately but is still tense around strangers. He handles car rides without any problems. He gets along well with other dogs and is a compatible, seasoned treasure at the animal shelter. We are looking for a quiet, rural home with patient people who can give him security and time. If you would like to give Wasabi a home or foster care, please contact his coordinator.

Wasabi sehnt sich nach einer Chance das Tierheim endlich verlassen zu können. Wasabi ist ein freundlicher, verspielter und sozialer Border Collie Mischling. Er liebt Spaziergänge mit anderen Hunden im Tierheim und sucht dabei stets den Kontakt zum Menschen. Außerhalb kennt Wasabi bisher kaum etwas, weshalb er in neuen Situationen noch unsicher reagiert. Mit Geduld und liebevoller Begleitung wird er jedoch schnell Vertrauen fassen. Wasabi läuft inzwischen gut an der Leine, reagiert aber noch sensibel auf Umweltreize. Vertrauten Menschen begegnet er liebevoll, Fremden gegenüber ist er noch angespannt. Autofahrten meistert er problemlos. Mit anderen Hunden versteht er sich bestens und zeigt sich im Tierheim als verträglicher, verschmuster Schatz. Für ihn suchen wir ein ruhiges, ländliches Zuhause bei geduldigen Menschen, die ihm Sicherheit und Zeit geben. Wenn Sie Wasabi ein Zuhause oder eine Pflegestelle schenken möchten, melden Sie sich gerne bei seiner Vermittlerin. Hier geht’s zu Wasabis Video Hier geht’s zu Wasabis zweitem Video

About Wasabi

What life with Wasabi looks like

Wasabi is a adult border collie dog waiting at SALVA Hundehilfe e.V. in Germany.

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.
