Baba

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

Update ‼️ Unfortunately, Baba no longer shows the same level of friendliness and openness towards unfamiliar (and even familiar) people. He tends to test boundaries aggressively and tries to assert his will through aggression. We are working intensively on this issue and making small progress, but this now includes not allowing him to leave the kennel without a muzzle. We ask that you come forward only if you have sufficient experience. Baba can be a loyal and devoted dog, but he needs a confident and clear person by his side. We will only rehome him in a household without children and other pets. Baba is an American Bully born in April 2021. He is an intact male dog weighing around 40kg. We cannot say much about his background, except that he comes from a non-species-appropriate environment. Baba is generally very friendly towards people, and he has no issues with strangers, approaching them cheerfully. He walks well to very well on a leash and can be calmly led past other dogs. True to his breed, he is generally more of a relaxed type. Since he had a cruciate ligament tear in June 2024, followed by surgery, he is currently undergoing physiotherapy, which he handles with great success. Baba is eager to bond with people, and for food, he would almost do anything.

Update ‼️ Inzwischen zeigt Baba sich leider nicht mehr so freundlich und aufgeschlossen fremden (und auch bekannten) Menschen gegenüber. Er neigt dazu Grenzen massiv auszutesten und versucht seinen Willen mit Angriff durchzusetzen. Wir arbeiten intensiv an dem Thema und machen kleine Fortschritte, allerdings beinhaltet dies, dass er den Zwinger nicht mehr ohne Maulkorb verlässt. Wir bitten drum, sich dann zu melden, wenn genug Erfahrung vorhanden ist, Baba kann ein treuer und loyaler Hund sein, braucht aber einen souveränen und klaren Menschen an der Seite. Wir vermitteln ihn nur an kinderlosen und tierlosen Haushalt. Baba ist ein American Bully und im April 2021 geboren. Er ist ein intakter Rüde mit circa 40kg Körpergewicht. Zu seiner Vorgeschichte können wir nicht viel sagen, nur das er aus einer nicht artgerechten Haltung kommt. Baba ist grundsätzlich sehr freundlich zu Menschen, auch bei fremden Menschen hat er keine Probleme und geht freudig auf diese zu. Er läuft gut bis sehr gut an der Leine und lässt sich ruhig an Hunden vorbeiführen. Rassetypisch ist er allgemein eher der entspannte Typ. Da er im Juni 2024 einen Kreuzbandriss mit anschließender OP hatte, bekommt er aktuell Physiotherapie, die er mit Bravour meistert. Baba lässt sich gerne auf Menschen ein und für Futter würde er fast alles tun. Leider kam Baba aus der

About Baba

What life with Baba looks like

Baba is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Tierschutzverein Freital in Germany.

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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Baba, answered.

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