Willi

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 4 years

Willi - your personal countdown is running. We are very happy for you and all that is coming. Update: As soon as Willi was taken in and introduced to the Vierbeiner-in-Not family, he already had a foster place. He proudly holds his departure ticket between his paws: On 03.10. Willi will travel to Germany to a loving foster home. As soon as he arrives and settles in, an update will follow - of course with new photos and first impressions from his new everyday life. Willi - your personal countdown is running. We are very happy for you and all that is coming. Willi was found alone on the street. Life there is especially difficult and dangerous, especially for small dogs. All the more luck did Willi have that he was discovered and taken in by loving people. So that Willi has a future in safety and with a lot of love in prospect, he was taken in our Vierbeiner-in-Not family. He was medically treated, got his beautiful name - and now we are looking for a loving foster home or a loving forever home for him. Willi is about 35 cm tall and was born in 2022. He currently lives with a foster family in Romania and already knows life in the house. Willi shows himself to be a very friendly dog, who is turned to people and is very happy about any form of attention. We have already asked for further photos, which will be submitted shortly. Willi is neutered and will be vaccinated, chipped and after a positive pre-control will be placed with a protection contract. General note on our protégés: Our dogs in Romania are regularly visited, so that we can always re-evaluate their behavior and development. These personal impressions help us very much to convey a possibly good picture of each individual dog. Nevertheless, we would like to point out that a dog in a new environment - with new people, new routines and new impressions - can also show itself differently. This is quite normal and is part of every change process. Many dogs open up in the home even faster and show sides that were not visible in the shelter. Our assessments are therefore based on current observations, but are not a guarantee for every behavior in the new environment. They should give an orientation and show how the dog presents himself in the shelter - and what potential is in him. We are convinced: With patience, understanding and a loving environment, every dog can find his way and develop positively.

Update: Kaum wurde Willi in der Vierbeiner‑in‑Not‑Familie aufgenommen und vorgestellt, schon hatte er einen Pflegeplatz. Stolz hält auch er sein Ausreiseticket zwischen den Pfötchen: Am 03.10. reist Willi nach Deutschland auf eine liebevolle Pflegestelle. Sobald er angekommen ist und sich eingelebt hat, folgt ein Update – natürlich mit neuen Fotos und ersten Eindrücken aus seinem neuen Alltag. Willi – dein persönlicher Count‑Down läuft. Wir freuen uns sehr für dich und auf alles, was jetzt kommt.Willi wurde alleine auf der Straße gefunden. Gerade für kleine Hunde ist das Leben dort besonders schwierig und gefährlich. Umso mehr Glück hatte Willi, dass er von lieben Menschen entdeckt und aufgenommen wurde.Damit Willi eine Zukunft in Sicherheit und mit viel Liebe in Aussicht hat, wurde er in unsere Vierbeiner‑in‑Not‑Familie aufgenommen. Er wurde medizinisch versorgt, hat seinen schönen Namen bekommen – und nun suchen wir für ihn eine liebevolle Pflegestelle oder ein liebevolles Zuhause für immer.Willi ist etwa 35 cm groß und 2022 geboren. Er lebt aktuell bei einer Pflegestelle in Rumänien und kennt damit bereits das Leben im Haus. Willi zeigt sich als sehr freundlicher Hund, der Menschen zugewandt ist und sich über jeder Form von Aufmerksamkeit sehr freut. Wir haben bereits um weitere Fotos gebeten, die in Kürze nachgereicht werden.Willi sucht Menschen, die ihm ein liebevolles Umfeld schenken und ihm zeigen, wie schön ein Hundeleben sein kann.Willi ist kastriert und wird geimpft, gechippt und nach positiver Vorkontrolle mit einem Schutzvertrag vermittelt.Allgemeiner Hinweis zu unseren Schützlingen: Unsere Hunde in Rumänien werden regelmäßig besucht, damit wir ihr Verhalten und ihre Entwicklung immer wieder neu einschätzen können. Diese persönlichen Eindrücke helfen uns sehr, ein möglichst gutes Bild von jedem einzelnen Hund zu vermitteln. Dennoch möchten wir darauf hinweisen, dass sich ein Hund in einer neuen Umgebung – mit neuen Menschen, neuen Abläufen und neuen Eindrücken – auch anders zeigen kann. Das ist ganz normal und gehört zu jedem Veränderungsprozess dazu. Viele Hunde öffnen sich im Zuhause sogar schneller und zeigen Seiten, die im Shelter gar nicht sichtbar waren. Unsere Einschätzungen basieren daher auf aktuellen Beobachtungen, sind aber keine Garantie für jedes Verhalten im neuen Umfeld. Sie sollen eine Orientierung geben und zeigen, wie der Hund sich im Shelter präsentiert – und welches Potenzial in ihm steckt.Wir sind überzeugt: Mit Geduld, Verständnis und einem liebevollen Umfeld kann jeder Hund seinen Weg finden und sich positiv weiterentwickeln.

About Willi

What life with Willi looks like

Willi is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Vierbeiner in Not 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Willi, answered.

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