How do I contact the shelter about Kanosch?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Pföttchenretter mit Herz e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Kanosch on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Kanosch if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Pföttchenretter mit Herz 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 Kanosch 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 Kanosch 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 Pföttchenretter mit Herz e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Kanosch 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.

Kanosch

Mixed Breed · Female

neutered: Not yet neutered compatibility with others: Gets along well, lives in a mixed pack; Cats: Not known, cannot be tested. Current location: animal shelter Istanbul (Turkey) Abandonment reason: Found dog Kanosch came to the shelter as a found dog. He is very friendly with people and bonds once he has gained their trust. This can take some time, as he learned early on that people often harm him rather than help him. He gets along well with fellow animals (male dogs and female dogs) and is otherwise an alert dog. Kanosch still has a lot to learn, such as walking on a leash or basic obedience. There is a lack of both time and helpers in the shelter to teach the dogs these skills. Therefore, his new owners should have plenty of time available. We believe that he will gain more self-confidence in a stable and responsible home. At any rate, he is very friendly with people and has a good character. An rather reserved and very quiet dog who definitely needs some time to build trust. In nature, very quiet and friendly.

Kastriert: Noch nicht kastriert Verträglichkeit: Gut verträglich, lebt in einem gemischten Rudel; Katzen: Nicht bekannt, kann nicht getestet werden. Derzeitiger Aufenthaltsort: Tierheim Istanbul (Türkei) Abgabegrund: Fundhund Kanosch kam als Fundhund in die Station. Er ist sehr lieb zu Menschen und bindet sich, wenn er einmal Vertrauen gefasst hat. Das kann anfangs etwas Zeit in Anspruch nehmen, da er früh gelernt hat, dass Menschen ihm eher schaden als Gutes tun. Er kommt prima mit Artgenossen (Rüden und Hündinnen) klar und ist ansonsten auch ein aufgeweckter Hund. Kanosch muss noch viel lernen, beispielsweise das Laufen an der Leine oder den Grundgehorsam. In der Station fehlt es sowohl an Zeit als auch an Helfern, um den Hunden dies beizubringen. Daher sollten seine neuen Besitzer über entsprechend viel Zeit verfügen. Wir denken, dass er in einem stabilen und verantwortungsvollen Zuhause noch an Selbstbewusstsein gewinnen wird. Jedenfalls ist er Menschen gegenüber sehr lieb und besitzt einen guten Charakter. Ein eher zurückhaltender und sehr ruhiger Hund, der ganz sicher ein wenig Zeit braucht um Vertrauen zu fassen. Vom Wesen her sehr ruhig und lieb.

About Kanosch

What life with Kanosch looks like

Kanosch is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Pföttchenretter mit Herz e.V. in Leichlingen.

An 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.
