Browse the available animals on this page and pick one you'd like to meet. Then contact Pfotenhilfe Sauerland e.V. directly using the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar — Pfotenhilfe Sauerland e.V. handles the adoption process, not TailHarbor.

Pfotenhilfe Sauerland e.V. typically handles the vetting, chipping, and passport.

Is Pfotenhilfe Sauerland e.V. a verified shelter on TailHarbor?

Pfotenhilfe Sauerland e.V. is listed on TailHarbor based on data scraped from their own website, but TailHarbor has not yet manually verified the shelter's contact details. We recommend confirming details directly with the shelter before travelling for an adoption visit.

What is the adoption fee at Pfotenhilfe Sauerland e.V.?

TailHarbor does not track adoption fees — they vary by animal and by shelter, and are set by Pfotenhilfe Sauerland e.V. directly. Typical fees in Germany cover the animal's pre-adoption veterinary care (sterilization, vaccinations, microchip, pet passport). Contact Pfotenhilfe Sauerland e.V. via the sidebar details for the exact fee for an animal you're interested in.
