Balu

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 4 years

Balu ist ein Fundtier aus Groß Sperrenwalde. - Aufnahme im Tierheim: 24.12.2025 - geboren ca.2022 - gechipt und geimpft - Rasse: Molosser Mischling, evtl. Mastiff Mischling Balu ist ein aufgeweckter, intelligenter und freundlicher Rüde. Er liebt lange Spaziergänge und genießt seine Schmuseeinheiten. Andererseits zeigt er sich oftmals energiegeladen, ungestümt und ein wenig stur. Besonders im Spiel und bei Spaziergängen ist ihm noch nicht bewusst, wieviel Kraft er doch besitzt. Wir suchen für Balu Besitzer, die aktiv und bereits hundeerfahren sind. Menschen mit viel Zeit und der Besuch einer Hundeschule wären wünschenswert, da Balu in seiner Erziehung noch viel Nachholebedarf hat. Balu wird nur in ein Zuhause mit Auslauf und der Möglichkeit, im Haus Zeit mit seinen Besitzern verbringen zu dürfen, abgegeben.

About Balu

What life with Balu looks like

Balu is an adult mixed breed dog waiting at Erika Kliemann-Tierheim (Prenzlauer Tierschutzverein) 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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Balu, answered.

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