Ajax

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

Ajax – I didn’t ask for help for myself... but for her. 🐾❤️ My name is Ajax and maybe my story starts on the day I showed what love and solidarity really mean. 💔 We were walking together on the riverside road towards Brăila. My companion was injured and kept running into danger, in front of the passing cars. I stayed with her. I walked next to her and tried to keep her away from the road. I couldn’t just leave her alone... ❤️ Then people stopped. I ran to them. I jumped up to them whining. Maybe they first thought I wanted to keep her away from them. But that’s not what I wanted. I wanted to tell them: “Please help her!” 😭❤️ Then I ran back to my injured companion. After anxious minutes the people managed to stop traffic in both directions. We were both rescued and taken to the clinic. My companion had to stay there. She needs examinations, stabilization and surgery. 🙏🏻 And I? I was allowed to come to Help Labus. There I got the name Ajax. 🐾❤️ I’m a small, cute guy and I show myself friendly, people-oriented and loving. I enjoy it when people deal with me and give me attention. Maybe I was left to myself for a long time. Maybe I had to learn to take care of my companion too early. Now I wish someone would finally see me. Someone who shows me that I don’t have to fight and take care of myself anymore. Someone with whom I can arrive. Someone who gives me love and a safe home. 🏡❤️

❤️🐾 AJAX – Ich habe nicht um Hilfe für mich gebeten… sondern für sie. 🐾❤️ Ich heiße Ajax und vielleicht beginnt meine Geschichte genau an dem Tag, an dem ich gezeigt habe, was Liebe und Zusammenhalt wirklich bedeuten. 💔 Wir waren gemeinsam auf der Uferstraße in Richtung Brăila unterwegs. Meine Gefährtin war verletzt und immer wieder in Gefahr, vor die vorbeifahrenden Autos zu laufen. Ich blieb bei ihr. Ich lief neben ihr her und versuchte, sie von der Straße fernzuhalten. Ich konnte sie doch nicht einfach alleine lassen… ❤️ Dann hielten Menschen an. Ich rannte zu ihnen. Ich sprang winselnd an ihnen hoch. Vielleicht dachten sie zuerst, ich wolle sie von ihr fernhalten. Aber das wollte ich nicht. Ich wollte ihnen sagen: „Bitte helft ihr!“ 😭❤️ Dann lief ich wieder zu meiner verletzten Gefährtin zurück. Nach bangen Minuten gelang es den Menschen, den Verkehr in beide Richtungen anzuhalten. Wir wurden beide gerettet und in die Klinik gebracht. Meine Gefährtin musste dort bleiben. Sie braucht Untersuchungen, Stabilisierung und eine Operation. 🙏🏻 Und ich? Ich durfte zu Help Labus kommen. Dort bekam ich den Namen Ajax. 🐾❤️ Ich bin ein kleiner, süßer Kerl und zeige mich freundlich, menschenbezogen und lieb. Ich genieße es, wenn Menschen sich mit mir beschäftigen und mir Aufmerksamkeit schenken. Vielleicht war ich lange nur auf mich selbst gestellt. Vielleicht musste ich schon viel zu früh lernen, auf meine Gefährtin aufzupassen. Jetzt wünsche ich mir, dass endlich jemand mich sieht. Jemand, der mir zeigt, dass ich nicht mehr kämpfen und aufpassen muss. Jemand, bei dem ich ankommen darf. Jemand, der mir Liebe schenkt und mir ein sicheres Zuhause gibt. 🏡❤️

About Ajax

What life with Ajax looks like

Ajax is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Ein Herz für Fellnasen e.V. in Waakirchen.

An young 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 Ajax, answered.

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