Aston

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 7 years

Astons Geschichte beginnt wie so viele Geschichten der unzähligen Jagdhunde in Spanien. Er wurde zusammen mit mehreren anderen Hunden aus sehr schlechter Haltung befreit und kam ins Tierheim der nordspanischen KollegInnen. Verständlicherweise zeigte er sich dort sehr ängstlich und vermied jeglichen Kontakt zu Menschen. Da er sich schnell an die Abläufe und Routinen im Tierheim gewöhnte und dadurch kaum noch Fortschritte in Bezug auf Menschen machte, zog er in eine spanische Tierpension um. Hier wird seither gezielt mit ihm gearbeitet und er macht gute Fortschritte. Er hält menschliche Nähe inzwischen sehr gut aus und zeigt sich häufig eher neugierig und interessiert.

About Aston

What life with Aston looks like

Aston is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Waisenhunde e.V. in Wöllstadt.

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.

🇩🇪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 Aston, answered.

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