Benni

Mixed Breed · Male

Benni came to us from a larger seizure by the veterinary office, along with 6 other dogs. He lived with many more dogs and is therefore also well suited as a second dog. He has apparently not yet seen much of the world, but he is a very sweet and pleasant dog. He would love to be petted 24/7. Benni is the "whipping boy" of our pack, but don't worry, they never seriously hurt each other. On walks, he clings to the human leg and is a master of "Fishing for Compliments". We are making great progress with all the dogs from this seizure every day and were totally amazed at how quickly they got used to leash and harness. Most of these dogs had never been on a walk or only very rarely. Some can even already sniff and do their business. Our 7 are total sunshine, now ready for the big world. It is an advantage to bring some dog experience and have a small garden. Older children are probably no problem and cats probably not either. If you are interested in one of these dogs (or even two :)), please send us an email at: . Please describe your living situation and give your exact address and phone number.

Benni kam aus einer größeren Sicherstellung durch das Veterinäramt, mit 6 anderen Hunden zu uns.Er lebte mit noch viel mehr Hunden zusammen und eignet sich daher auch gut als Zweithund. Viel von der Welt hat er aber offenbar noch nicht kennengelernt, aber er ist eine sehr lieber und angenehmer Hund.Er würde am liebsten 24/7 gestreichelt werden. Benni ist der „Prügelknabe „ unsere Truppe- aber keine Sorge, sie verletzen sich nie ernsthaft. Beim Gassigehen klebt er am menschlichen Bein und ist beherrscht „Fishing for Compliments“ aus dem FF. Wir machen tagtäglich große Fortschritte mit allen Hunden aus dieser Sicherstellung und waren total erstaunt, wie schnell sie sich an Leine und Geschirr gewöhnt haben.Diese Hunde waren zum Großteil noch nie Gassi oder wenn, dann sehr selten. Einige können sogar schon schnuppern und ihre Geschäfte verrichten. Unsere 7 sind totale Sonnenscheine, die nun bereit für die große Welt sind. Es ist von Vorteil etwas Hundeerfahrung mitzubringen und einen kleinen Garten zu haben. Größere Kinder sind bestimmt auch kein Problem und Katzen wahrscheinlich auch nicht. Wenn Sie sich für einen dieser Hunde ( oder auch zwei :) ) interessieren, schreiben Sie uns bitte eine Mail an: . Bitte schildern Sie ihren Lebenssituation und geben ihre genaue Adresse und Telefonnummer an.

About Benni

What life with Benni looks like

Benni is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Frankenthal in Germany.

An 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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Benni, answered.

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