How do I contact the shelter about Barry?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. BMT Tierheim Pfullingen handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Barry on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Barry if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — BMT Tierheim Pfullingen 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 Barry 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 Barry 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 BMT Tierheim Pfullingen early rather than rehoming privately; they know Barry 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.

Barry

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 6 years

Name: Barry Breed: mixed breed Gender: male neutered Size: 34 cm Weight: 7 kg Age: 01.03.2020 In the animal shelter since: 12.12.2023 If you are interested in Barry, please answer the following six questions in your inquiry: 1. How many people live in your household? 2. Are there children in the house? If yes, how many and how old? 3. Are there other pets in the house? If yes, which ones? 4. What is the living situation (house/apartment? floor? garden?) 5. How many hours would the dog be alone in the house each day? (Please note: supervision must be provided by adults. Children do not count for supervision!) 6. Have you had dog experience before? 7. Your birth year? We have not had a dog like Barry here for a long time. Even after over two years with us, he still reacts absolutely panic-stricken when we approach him or feels cornered – even when we only enter the kennel, he flees and barks at us from a safe distance. We do not know what experiences he has had with people in the past, but they cannot have been very good… For him, we are looking for a very special home: one where he can be himself. He needs space and quiet and, at the very least, a canine companion. His people should have no expectations of him, because he will certainly not be able to meet them. It would be ideal if he had the opportunity to go out of the house into a secure garden independently. He should be able to decide how much proximity he wants to have to people, and it could be that his distant handling never changes – that should be kept in mind! The home should be rural and quiet, and there should be no children in the house. Do you have a question about this animal? Please call us: Monday to Friday 15-17 pm and Saturday 14-17 pm. Or write to us: Some shelter animals may need to be more patient in their search for an appropriate home. This may be due to illness, age, or special character traits. To make their time with us as pleasant as possible, we rely on the financial support of animal friends. By adopting a sponsorship, you help us with the daily and medical care and accommodation of our animals. Sponsorships are possible from a monthly contribution of 10 euros. You can also set the amount of your contribution as you see fit. As a thank you, you will receive an individually designed sponsorship certificate and will be mentioned as a sponsor on our homepage and our Facebook page.

Name: Barry Rasse: Mischling Geschlecht: männlich kastriert Größe: 34 cm Gewicht: 7 kg Alter: 01.03.2020 Im Tierheim seit: 12.12.2023 Der Rüde mit der handlichen Größe ist ein waschechter Individualist, wie man das eigentlich von den viel größeren Herdenschutzhunden kennt. Er hält gerne alles zusammen, sprich er hütet gerne, und macht das nach seinem eigenen Gusto. Er ist ein Hund der sich selbst am meisten vertraut, ist selbstständig und trifft seine eigenen Entscheidungen. Deshalb braucht er auch die ständige Nähe des Menschen nicht, dafür schätzt er die Gesellschaft von Artgenossen, ohne die er sich nicht wirklich wohlfühlt. Berry würde sich in einer ruhigen ländlichen Umgebung mit Hundekumpels und eingezäunten Grundstück mehr als wohlfühlen, wo er sein eigenes Ding machen kann. Und Menschen, die sein selbstständiges Wesen akzeptieren und vierbeinige Individualisten mögen.Wenn Sie Interesse an Barry haben, beantworten Sie uns in Ihrer Anfrage bitte zuerst die folgenden sechs Fragen:1. Wie viele Personen leben im Haushalt?2. Leben Kinder im Haus? Wenn ja, wie viele und wie alt?3. Leben andere Tiere im Haus? Wenn ja, welche?4. Wie ist die Wohnsituation (Haus/Wohnung? Stockwerk? Garten?)5. Wie viele Stunden wäre der Hund am Tag insgesamt alleine? (Bitte beachten: Die Betreuung muss durch erwachsene Personen sichergestellt sein. Kinder zählen daher nicht mit für die Betreuung!)6. Haben Sie bereits Hundeerfahrung?7. Ihr Geburtsjahr? Sie haben eine Frage zu diesem Tier? Rufen Sie uns gerne an: Do, Fr 15-17 Uhr und Sa 14-17 Uhr Oder schreiben Sie uns: Mancher Schützling muss bei der Suche nach einem geeigneten Zuhause etwas mehr Geduld aufbringen. Sei es aufgrund einer Krankheit, seines Alters oder besonderer Charakterzüge. Um diesen Bewohnern die Zeit bei uns so angenehm wie möglich zu gestalten, sind wir auf die finanzielle Unterstützung von Tierfreunden angewiesen. Mit der Übernahme einer Patenschaft helfen Sie uns bei der täglichen und medizinischen Versorgung und Unterbringung unserer Tiere. Patenschaften sind ab einem Monatsbeitrag von 10 Euro möglich. Darüber hinaus können Sie die Höhe Ihres Beitrags selbstverständlich selbst festlegen. Als Dankeschön erhalten Sie eine individuell gestaltete Patenurkunde und werden sowohl auf unserer Homepage wie auch unserer Facebook-Seite als Pat*in erwähnt.

About Barry

What life with Barry looks like

Barry is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at BMT Tierheim Pfullingen in Pfullingen.

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.
