How do I contact the shelter about Anton?

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

Can I adopt Anton if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutz Celle 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 Anton 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 Anton 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 Tierschutz Celle early rather than rehoming privately; they know Anton 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.

Anton

Golden Retriever · Male · Senior · 14 years

Breed: Golden Retriever/Australian Shepherd Mix—Is he compatible with other animals? Can he be left alone for a few hours? Anton is once again looking for a calm, loving home with kind people... Anton was born on April 13, 2012. Recently, his human had to leave their shared home with a garden, and since Anton cannot permanently stay at his current foster home—a two-room apartment—we are now searching for a wonderful place for him to spend the rest of his life. Anton, a Golden Retriever/Australian Shepherd mix, is not neutered but is vaccinated and microchipped and needs to take two tablets daily. Anton gets along well with other dogs and loves people—both small and large. However, cats should not live in his home. Will Anton get another chance at a loving, dog-friendly home? A non-binding meet-and-greet can be arranged at any time. www.haustierhilfe-heidekreis.de Email: Opens in a new window. The data protection and terms of use of the service provider apply.

About Anton

What life with Anton looks like

Anton is a large senior golden retriever dog waiting at Tierschutz Celle in Celle.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇩🇪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.
