Aaron

German Shepherd · Male

Aaron stammt ursprünglich aus Rom von einem Züchter. Er wurde angeschafft, um auf Sardinien auf Schafe aufzupassen. Leider war das aus Aarons Sicht keine gute Idee. Er spielte lieber mit den Schafen oder schlief in der Sonne. Der Schäfer wandte sich an das Tierheim, doch hier ist im Moment kein Platz. Also einigte man sich darauf, dass er solange beim Besitzer bleibt, bis man ein Zuhause oder eine Pflegestelle gefunden hat. Wir haben Aaron besucht und es tat uns in der Seele weh, ihn an der kurzen Kette in einem Schuppen zu sehen. Aaron ist ein imposanter Bursche, der sich seinem Schicksal fügt. Als wir da waren, sprang noch ein kleiner Dackel um ihn herum, aber an der Kette hatte er wenig Möglichkeit, zu reagieren, sei es mit ihm zu spielen oder ihn zu verjagen. Wir konnten ihn knuddeln, in die Ohren gucken, uns neben ihn setzen – er ließ alles geschehen. Es schien, als würde er es genießen, dass es Menschen gibt, die ihm etwas Aufmerksamkeit schenken und ihn streicheln. Wir suchen dringend für Aaron ein Zuhause oder Pflegestelle, wo er erst einmal ankommen kann. Er ist verträglich mit Artgenossen. Besonders Katzen liebt er (siehe Foto). Sie sollten Hundeerfahrung haben und einen eingezäunten Garten. Kinder sollten schon etwas älter sein, da wir nicht wissen, ob er etwas „umwerfend“ sein kann, wenn er nicht mehr an der Kette ist. Wenn Sie Fragen zu Aaron haben, dann nehmen Sie gerne Kontakt auf. Aaron kann auf Wunsch kastriert werden. Alle Hunde sind bei Ausreise gechipt, geimpft und reisen mit einem EU Ausweis in einem beim deutschen Veterinäramt registrierten Transport.

About Aaron

What life with Aaron looks like

Aaron is a extra-large adult german shepherd dog waiting at Tierschutzverein Furbys FellFreunde in Bornheim.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 Aaron, answered.

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