Aslan

Kangal · Male · Adult · 5 years

over: 🍀 Other dogs: gladly, by sympathy Other animals: not known, must be tested Children: if you have control over the dog and the children Hound experience: hound experience (breed expert) Problems: only breed-related Special: eager to learn Hi and a welcome hello. My name is Aslan. I came to the animal shelter because unfortunately, again, people meant well but did a bad job. Now, I'm looking for a new forever home here. I'm really a fine fellow, and if you know about Kangals, you'll have a lot of fun with me. I'm compatible with other dogs without a leash and also like to play. On the leash, I have to show off my macho side and prove who the boss is. Well, this is also due to my age, right in the middle of puberty. But my trainer and I are working on it very diligently. Wearing a muzzle is something I'm used to and do really well. I mean, you have to stand your ground and be cool. With my trusted people, I'm (when no one is watching) very affectionate, play and frolic with them, and love them simply. For them, I would go through fire. Strangers are breed-relatedly suspicious to me, but if my primary caregiver is there, I ignore them. I wish for a home with a garden or an enclosure that I can guard, preferably with a female companion. Do you want or already have a Kangal? Then contact me via email and tell me a bit about yourselves.

Andere Hunde: gerne, nach Sympathie Andere Tiere: nicht bekannt, muss man testen Kinder: wenn man den Hund und die Kinder unter Kontrolle hat Hundeerfahrung: Hundeerfahrung (Rassekenner) Probleme: nur Rassebedingte Besonderheit: Lernwillig Hi und ein wunscherschönes Hallo. Mein Name ist Aslan. Ich kam ins Tierheim, weil leider wieder Menschen es gut gemeint aber schlecht gemacht haben Naja jetzt suche ich hier ein neues Für-immer-Zuhause. Ich bin echt ein feiner Kerl und wenn man sich mit Kangals auskennt, wird man viel Spaß mit mir haben. Mit anderen Hunden bin ich ohne Leine verträglich und spiele auch gerne. An der Leine muss ich den Macho raushängen lassen und zeigen, wer der Boss ist. Tja, dies ist halt auch meinem Alter geschuldet, mitten in der Pubertät. Aber meine Trainerin und ich arbeiten daran sehr fleißig. Das Tragen eines Maulkorbes bin ich gewohnt und mache ich auch echt klasse. Ich meine, man muss ja seinen Mann stehen und cool sein. Mit meinen Bezugspersonen bin ich (wenn keiner zuschaut) sehr verkuschelt, spiele und tobe mit denen und liebe sie einfach. Für die würde ich durchs Feuer gehen. Fremde sind mir Rassebedingt suspekt, aber wenn meine Bezugsperson dabei ist, ignoriere ich diese. Ich wünsche mir definitiv ein Zuhause mit Garten oder einen Hof, den ich bewachen kann, gerne mit weiblicher Begleitung. Ihr wollt oder habt schon einen Kangal? Dann meldet euch per Mail und erzählt bisschen was über euch.

About Aslan

What life with Aslan looks like

Aslan is a extra-large adult kangal dog waiting at Tierheim Stuttgart in Stuttgart.

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: Requires muzzle wearing, needs experienced Kangal owner, shows leash reactivity due to adolescent phase

🇩🇪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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Aslan, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Aslan?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Stuttgart handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Aslan on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Aslan if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Stuttgart 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 Aslan 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 Aslan 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 Stuttgart early rather than rehoming privately; they know Aslan 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.
