Adopt Baxter

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

Gender: Male Age: Born ca. October 2024 Baxter is a beautiful, friendly dog with a gentle nature. He is from a litter of 11 puppies, of which two have already found homes in Germany. Baxter has emerged as one of the more outgoing of his siblings and constantly seeks the company of the helpers at the intake shelter. He gladly takes treats from their hands and has a curious, open-minded disposition that makes him a promising companion. Despite his friendly nature, Baxter is still a bit shy and needs time to build full trust with his human. He will require some patience to feel completely at home in his new surroundings, but he already shows great potential and a natural curiosity that will help him continue to develop. Baxter is a peaceful dog who does not show aggression and avoids conflicts. He fits in well with the dog community and avoids disputes. His calm and friendly nature make him a wonderful companion for people with experience in dealing with more shy dogs. If Baxter appeals to you, please click on "Request Now" and fill out the referral form. More dogs are searching for homes... Oscar is not only friendly and open with people but also with other dogs. Mia San wants a quiet dog bed for herself. Maya wants her own home. Milly has been waiting for her people for so long.

About Baxter

What life with Baxter looks like

Baxter is a large young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein Hunde in Not Rhein-Main e.V. in Bad Vilbel.

An young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 Baxter, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Baxter?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutzverein Hunde in Not Rhein-Main e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Baxter on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Baxter if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutzverein Hunde in Not Rhein-Main 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Baxter 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 Baxter 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 Hunde in Not Rhein-Main e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Baxter 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.
