How do I contact the shelter about Arkor?

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

Can I adopt Arkor if I live in another country?

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

Arkor

Rottweiler · Male · 2 years

I am Arkor … a young, rottweiler-type male dog. I came to the animal shelter because my person sadly passed away. Now I am looking for a new, stable home with clear rules, lots of love, and patience. Would you like to know more about me? I am friendly, strong, and clever. I can do basic commands, and on the leash, I walk nicely. Typical Rotti, I defend what is important to me: food, toys (I still need to learn to put them away), and sometimes "my" people – this is socially motivated but requires management and training. Touching me everywhere is not always okay; but if you read my body language, you will get along well with me. I wear my muzzle reliably and should continue to wear it in certain situations – because there was a biting incident. With clear structure, fair leadership, and rewards, I learn quickly and enjoy it, and playing makes me very happy. I wish for … a dog or preferably breed-experienced, child-free home – ideally with a confident individual. I should not have to climb stairs in my new home. A quiet environment, clear routines, exchange and impulse control training, as well as consistent muzzle and safety management will help me settle in. Please plan several visits for getting to know and building trust. Will I fit with you/yours?

Ich bin Arkor … ein junger, rottweiler-typischer Rüde. Ich kam ins Tierheim, weil mein Mensch leider verstorben ist. Jetzt suche ich ein neues, stabiles Zuhause mit klaren Regeln, viel Herz und Geduld. Möchtest du mehr über mich erfahren? Ich bin freundlich, kräftig und clever. Grundkommandos kann ich, an der Leine laufe ich ordentlich. Typisch Rotti verteidige ich für mich Wichtiges: Futter, Spielzeug (Abgeben muss ich noch üben) und manchmal auch „meine“ Menschen – das ist sozial motiviert, braucht aber Management und Training. Einfach überall anfassen finde ich nicht immer okay; wer meine Körpersprache liest, kommt aber gut mit mir klar. Ich trage meinen Maulkorb zuverlässig und soll ihn zunächst weiterhin in bestimmten Situationen tragen – denn es gab einen Beißvorfall. Mit klarer Struktur, fairer Führung und Belohnung lerne ich schnell und gern, auch Spielen macht mir viel Spaß. Ich wünsche mir … ein hunde- bzw am besten rasseerfahrenes, kinderfreies Zuhause – im Idealfall bei einer souveränen Einzelperson. Treppen sollte ich nicht steigen müssen in meinem neuen Zuhause. Ein ruhiger Rahmen, klare Routinen, Tausch- und Impulskontrolltraining sowie konsequentes Maulkorb- und Sicherheitsmanagement helfen mir, anzukommen. Bitte plant mehrere Besuche zum Kennenlernen und Vertrauensaufbau ein. Passe ich zu dir/euch?

About Arkor

What life with Arkor looks like

Arkor is a large adult rottweiler dog waiting at Tierheim Berlin Falkenberg in Berlin.

An 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.

Note from the shelter: Must wear muzzle in certain situations due to bite incident. Requires consistent safety management, impulse control training, and cannot climb stairs.

🇩🇪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.
