Benji

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

Hallo, ich bin Benji! 🐾 Noch vor Kurzem war ein Baum auf einer Finca mein Zuhause. Inzwischen durfte ich ins Refugio umziehen, und ich finde, das ist ein ziemlich guter Anfang für mein neues Leben. Ich wurde ungefähr im September 2025 geboren, bin etwa 35 cm groß und wiege rund 5 kg. Außerdem bin ich inzwischen kastriert und bereit, die Welt zu entdecken. Was du über mich wissen solltest? Kuscheln gehört eindeutig zu meinen größten Talenten, und ich liebe es, direkt an der Seite meiner Menschen zu schlafen. Natürlich steckt auch noch jede Menge Junghund in mir. Ich bin verspielt, neugierig und manchmal auch noch ein bisschen forsch. Mit liebevoller Erziehung werde ich bestimmt zu einem tollen Begleiter, der mit dir durch dick und dünn geht. Jetzt fehlt mir eigentlich nur noch das Wichtigste: Menschen, die mir zeigen, wie sich ein richtiges Zuhause anfühlt: mit Geborgenheit, gemeinsamen Abenteuern und ganz vielen Kuscheleinheiten. Vielleicht bist genau du der Mensch, auf den ich schon die ganze Zeit warte? Bei Einreise bin ich geimpft, gechipt, entwurmt und habe meinen EU-Heimtierausweis dabei. Dein Benji 🐾 E-Mail:

About Benji

What life with Benji looks like

Benji is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Aktion Tierisch Happy e.V. in Germany.

A young 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 Benji, answered.

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