How do I contact the shelter about Ares?

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

Can I adopt Ares if I live in another country?

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

Ares

German Shepherd · Male · Young · 1 year

Ares Ares is a large powerhouse and seeks dog-experienced, athletic people who can provide him with loving but consistent leadership. He is a friendly unneutered male dog who, however, still struggles to properly assess his own size and strength. He gets along well with other dogs. Until he was 1 year old, he was in a loving home, but his owner passed away since then, and he has been in the animal shelter. Ares also shows resource defense towards toys and clearly communicates when he does not want something. For him, we now wish to find a loving forever home with plenty of dog experience and active individuals. Children should not wait for Ares in the new home. For further information, please contact our Dog Team at . If you are interested in this animal, you can send us a message via the contact form or contact us at the phone number.

DE·Show original

Ares Ares ist ein großes Kraftpaket und sucht hundeerfahrene, sportliche Menschen die ihm liebevolle aber konsequente Führung bieten. Er ist ein freundlicher unkastrierter Rüde, der jedoch noch Schwierigkeiten hat seine eigene Größe und Kraft richtig einzuschätzen. Mit anderen Hunden ist er gut verträglich. Er war, bis er 1 Jahr alt war in einem liebevollen Zuhause, jedoch verstarb sein Besitzer, seit dem ist er im Tierheim. Ares zeigt auch Ressourcenverteidigung gegenüber Spielzeug und zeigt auch klar an, wenn er etwas nicht möchte. Für ihn wünschen wir uns nun ein liebevolles Für-Immer-Zuhause, mit viel Hundeerfahrung und bewegungsaktiven Personen. Kinder sollten im neuen Zuhause nicht auf Ares warten. Für weitere Informationen wenden Sie sich bitte an unser Hunde-Team unter . Wenn Sie sich für dieses Tier interessieren, können Sie uns eine Nachricht über das Kontaktformular zukommen lassen oder uns unter der Telefonnummer kontaktieren.

About Ares

What life with Ares looks like

Ares is a large young adult german shepherd dog waiting at Tierheim Starnberg in Starnberg.

An young 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.
