Balou

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 4 months

Date of birth: 20.06.2026 EU vaccination record: vaccinated, microchipped Compatible with dogs: yes Compatible with cats: unknown Balou is one of four siblings who were abandoned in a cemetery. Thankfully, these little furballs are now safe and can hope for people who will give them a beautiful future. Little Balou is at first still a bit cautious and reserved. He wants to get to know the world calmly, first. But when his siblings invite him to play, his reserve is quickly forgotten! Then it's romping, running and playing with all their might. Balou is still a puppy who wants to discover and learn a great deal. With loving people by his side, he can gain trust step by step and grow into a cheerful, self-confident dog. Who would like to take Balou by the paw and show him how wonderful a dog's life can be? Puppies are still developing, so we cannot make any binding statements about their later character yet. With love, patience and good training, every puppy will develop into a unique little dog that will enrich its family in its own very special way. Almost all of our dogs are extremely friendly toward people, dogs and cats in Romania. Nevertheless, it should be kept in mind that all dogs must be trained and integrated into family life in their new home. If you would like to give Balou a home, please call the following telephone number: In a personal conversation we can answer questions and discuss our adoption criteria. Puppies are placed exclusively within a radius of 80 km around Tholey.

Geburtsdatum: 20.06.2026 EU-Impfausweis: geimpft, gechipt, Verträglich mit Hunden: ja Verträglich mit Katzen: unbekannt Balou ist einer von vier Geschwistern, die auf einem Friedhof ausgesetzt wurden. Zum Glück sind die kleinen Fellnasen jetzt in Sicherheit und dürfen auf Menschen hoffen, die ihnen eine schöne Zukunft schenken. Der kleine Balou ist anfangs noch etwas vorsichtig und zurückhaltend. Er möchte die Welt erst einmal in Ruhe kennenlernen. Doch wenn seine Geschwister zum Spielen einladen, ist die Zurückhaltung schnell vergessen! Dann wird getobt, gerannt und gespielt, was das Zeug hält. Balou ist noch ein Welpe, der ganz viel entdecken und lernen möchte. Mit liebevollen Menschen an seiner Seite kann er Schritt für Schritt Vertrauen gewinnen und zu einem fröhlichen, selbstsicheren Hund heranwachsen. Wer möchte Balou an die Pfote nehmen und ihm zeigen, wie schön ein Hundeleben sein kann? Welpen entwickeln sich noch: Deshalb können wir über den späteren Charakter noch keine verbindlichen Aussagen treffen. Mit Liebe, Geduld und einer guten Erziehung wird sich jeder Welpe zu einem ganz eigenen kleinen Hund entwickeln, der seine Familie auf seine ganz besondere Art bereichern wird. Fast alle unsere Hunde zeigen sich in Rumänien äußerst freundlich Menschen, Hunden und Katzen gegenüber. Trotzdem sollte man bedenken, dass alle Hunde im neuen Zuhause erzogen und in den Familienalltag eingefügt werden müssen. Wenn Sie Balou ein Zuhause geben möchten, rufen Sie bitte nachfolgende Telefonnummer an: In einem persönlichen Gespräch können wir Fragen beantworten und unsere Vermittlungskriterien besprechen. lpen werden ausschließlich im Umkreis von 80 km um Tholey vermittelt.

About Balou

What life with Balou looks like

Balou is a small puppy mixed breed dog waiting at TierOase ThoMa e.V. in Germany.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇩🇪Adopting from Germany

German rescues typically require an in-person home visit (Vorkontrolle) or detailed video home check before approving adoption. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Balou, answered.

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