How do I contact the shelter about Bao?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutzverein 7 Gebirge e.V. — Orscheider Hof handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Bao on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Bao if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutzverein 7 Gebirge e.V. — Orscheider Hof 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 Bao 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 Bao 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 Tierschutzverein 7 Gebirge e.V. — Orscheider Hof early rather than rehoming privately; they know Bao 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.

Bao

Shih Tzu · Male · Adult · 7 years

Bao is a calm and pleasant companion. He behaves well indoors, is housebroken, and enjoys being close to his humans. On the leash he walks well and loves walks. We are looking for a loving home for Bao with people who appreciate the special qualities of the Shih Tzu breed. Bao can be rehomed as a single dog or with an existing suitable dog. With his balanced nature, he is ideally suited to become a loyal companion for many happy years together. Ideal home: We imagine him particularly well in older people's homes or quiet households where he receives lots of affection and security. If this is your dream dog, please fill out our self-assessment form and send it to the animal shelter department. Thank you! Rehoming requests without a self-assessment form cannot be processed due to capacity constraints. We apologize for any inconvenience. Contact:

About Bao

What life with Bao looks like

Bao is a adult shih tzu dog waiting at Tierschutzverein 7 Gebirge e.V. — Orscheider Hof 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.
