Yuki

Mixed Breed · Male

Yuki, the little boy who will never see us, who will only feel the hands that stroke and feed him, who will never see his playmates, who will never see the light of the world... he is growing up and has now received his vaccinations. He is such a cheerful fellow. He hears well and orients himself by the voices. He has a slightly unsteady gait and sometimes falls on his bottom... these are the only neurological abnormalities he has. We wholeheartedly hope that there is "this someone" somewhere for him who has patience and calmness, and ideally a rather quiet first dog to orient himself to. Yuki is not anxious, he wanders around curiously and enjoys petting very much. Yuki will weigh around 15 kg +/- when fully grown, so he won't stay quite small. At the moment, at 4 months old, he weighs 7 kg at 35 cm.

DE·Show original

Yuki, der kleine Junge, der uns nie sehen wird, der nur die Hände spüren wird, die ihn streicheln und füttern, der nie seinen Spielkameraden sehen wird, der nie das Licht der Welt erblicken wird … er wächst heran und hat nun seine Impfungen erhalten. Er ist so ein fröhlicher Kerl. Er hört gut und orientiert sich an den Stimmen. Er hat einen etwas schwankenden Gang und fällt schon mal auf seinen Pöppes….dies sind jedoch die einzigen neurologischen Auffälligkeiten, die er zudem noch hat. Wir hoffen von ganzem Herzen, dass es irgendwo „diesen Jemand“ für ihn gibt, der Geduld und Ruhe mitbringt, und im Idealfall einen eher ruhigen Ersthund an dem er sich orientieren kann. Yuki ist nicht ängstlich, er tapst neugierig herum und genießt Streicheleinheiten sehr. Yuki wird ausgewachsen ggfs. ca. 15 kg +/- wiegen, also nicht ganz klein bleiben. Zur Zeit wiegt er mit 4 Monaten 7 kg bei 35 cm.

About Yuki

What life with Yuki looks like

Yuki is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Friends for Life Germany e.V. in Hemer.

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 Yuki, answered.

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