Hedwig

Hedwig is part of a very special little family named after Harry Potter characters. She was found together with her mother Hermione and her four siblings after they had been very recently neutered and ear-tagged, when the puppies were only around 5–6 months old.

They were living in a suburban area that was sadly not dog-friendly. Because of their incredibly sweet and social nature, they would happily approach people for affection — something that placed them at serious risk. Under the local massacre law, dogs like them had no real chance of survival and could have been removed at any time.

Thankfully, they were rescued just in time and taken to safety. The whole family was placed in a dog hotel, where they received all their vaccinations and care while waiting for their turn to fly to the Netherlands and start searching for their forever homes.

Hedwig is a super affectionate, happy-go-lucky girl with a carefree spirit. She absolutely adores people, is very food-motivated, and greets life with constant enthusiasm. She has no known diseases, no special dietary needs, and no medical conditions — just a healthy young dog full of joy.

She has never lived in a home before, so she is still learning the basics of family life. Hedwig is not potty trained yet, and her future family should be prepared to guide her patiently as she learns routines — she truly wants to do well and will thrive with gentle structure.

One thing Hedwig is very clear about: she is obsessed with water. She doesn’t just drink from her water bowl — she plays in it, tips it over, and happily splashes around, meaning you’ll often find her a little (or very) wet 😅. Water play is one of her greatest joys and a guaranteed source of entertainment.

Hedwig is curious, open, and confident with new experiences. She approaches unfamiliar situations with excitement rather than fear and shows a wonderful resilience that makes her a joy to discover day by day.

She lived in a dog hotel with many other dogs and mostly interacted with her siblings. On leash walks, she remained calm around stray dogs and dogs barking from behind fences. She has also encountered stray cats and showed curiosity rather than intensity.

Hedwig is learning to walk on a leash and is responsive to guidance, though like any young dog, she will benefit greatly from continued training and positive reinforcement.

If you’re looking for a dog who will fill your home with laughter, affection, and a few happy splashes of water, Hedwig might be the perfect match.

If you can open your home — and your heart — to Hedwig, even temporarily, you’ll be giving this joyful girl the chance to finally experience the loving life she deserves. 💙🐾

She is ready to fly to the Netherlands as soon as she finds a foster home and a flight volunteer!
