How do I contact the shelter about Anubis?

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

Can I adopt Anubis if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Essen 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 Anubis 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 Anubis 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 Tierheim Essen early rather than rehoming privately; they know Anubis 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.

Adopt Anubis

Male

Unfortunately, I've ended up back at the animal shelter. I'm not doing well here, so alone without a person by my side. All the hustle and bustle and noise all day. This is absolutely not for me. Thank goodness the caretakers found me a foster home quickly. The peace and quiet are doing me very good. I slept for the first two days only because I couldn't do that at the animal shelter at all. I'm very cuddly and need physical closeness. As you can hear, I love people very much. What I don't find so great are other dogs. But that's not so bad, because for the past three weeks, I've been training intensively on this problem. I've already improved a lot and can now approach other dogs without getting stressed. I'll keep working on making it even better. My trainer says you don't have to love all dogs, we humans and other dogs don't love everything either. I'm looking for a wonderful home where I can be the sole prince. It would be nice if there was someone out there who understands my needs.

Leider bin ich wieder im Tierheim gelandet. Mir geht es gar nicht gut hier, so alleine ohne einen Mensch an meiner Seite. Die ganze Hektik und der Lärm den ganzen Tag. Das ist überhaupt nichts für mich. Gott sei Dank haben die Pfleger schnell eine Pflegestelle für mich gefunden. Die Ruhe tut mir sehr gut. Ich habe die ersten beiden Tage nur geschlafen denn das konnte ich im Tierheim überhaupt nicht. Ich bin sehr verschmust und brauche die körperliche Nähe. Wie man daraus schön hört liebe ich Menschen sehr. Was ich nicht so toll finde, sind andere Hunde. Aber das ist nicht so schlimm ,denn seit 3 Wochen trainiere ich intensiv an diesem Problem. Ich bin auch schon viel besser geworden und kann mich anderen Hunden schon nähern, ohne Stress zu bekommen. Ich arbeite weiter damit das noch besser wird. Mein Trainer sagt, du musst nicht alle Hunde lieben, wir Menschen und auch andere Hunde, finden auch nicht alle toll. Ich suche ein tolles Zuhause, in dem ich der alleinige Prinz sein darf. Es wäre schön, wenn es jemanden da draußen geben würde, der auf meine Bedürfnisse eingeht.

About Anubis

What life with Anubis looks like

Anubis is a adult dog waiting at Tierheim Essen in Essen.

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.
