Melen,

There are many rescue centers - Tierheim - and many, many dogs in need of good homes. Most Tierheime post on the Tierschutz database, so this is your best place to start looking. Contact details for the various rescues can be found under 'zur Anbeiter Information' at the bottom of each dog's picture.

See this thread for a similar discussion, and suggestions:
