Bert - reserviert

Romanian Shepherd · Male · Adult · 5 years

Admission At our shelter since: 20.10.2025 Can we introduce Bert? Our Sweet-Bert. He is generally like a big teddy bear. Cuddling, playing, and being there are his things. With people he knows, he is friendly and open, but with strangers he is more skeptical and watchful. Getting to know Bert takes some time and a few joint walks. In the dog group where he lives, he is liked and respected by all, his presence is sovereign but friendly, and so far, it has worked well with all fellow animals. Play is on the daily agenda! While his friendly and gentle nature predominates, he also has a few serious sides to Bert. He is a vigilant and watchful companion, he will take it upon himself to announce the presence of uninvited guests on the property/house. For strangers, he is less welcome. If you introduce the guests to him and make it clear that it is not his decision who can enter the property, he will take it well. However, his people are very important to him, and he also claims them for himself. At this point, rules must be established for a harmonious coexistence. Otherwise, he will take on the job as a doorman, and guests will be generally rejected. Due to his behavior, a incident unfortunately occurred in his previous home, and he bit the neighbor on his own property. Since then, he has been classified as dangerous, and we are preparing him for behavioral assessment. Our Sweet-Bert takes instructions and rules from his primary caregiver calmly and well, but he is not easily persuaded by strangers – why should he be? We wouldn’t do what we are told either if a stranger suddenly came to our workplace and thought they could dictate how we do our work. And yet, he is open to forming new friendships over time. Other dogs in the household are not a must, but playdates or joint walks would be great! Due to his behavior and classification, Bert will not be rehomed with children!

Abgabe Im Tierheim seit: 20.10.2025 Über Bert - reserviert Dürfen wir vorstellen? Unser Süß-Bert. Er ist im Großen und Ganzen wie ein großer Teddybär. Kuscheln, spielen, dabei sein sind sein Ding. Mit Menschen die er kennt ist er freundlich und aufgeschlossen, mit fremden Menschen eher skeptisch und wachsam. Für ein Kennenlernen von Bert braucht es etwas Zeit und ein paar gemeinsame Spaziergänge. In der Hundegruppe, in der er bei uns lebt, wird er von allen gemocht und respektiert, seine Ausstrahlung ist souverän aber freundlich und kam bislang bei allen Artgenossen gut an. Spielen steht täglich auf dem Programm! So sehr seine freundliche und weiche Art auch überwiegt, so gibt es dann auch zu Bert noch ein paar ernste Tackte. Er ist ein aufmerksamer und wachsamer Begleiter, er wird es sich zur Aufgabe machen das Auftreten ungebetener Gäste auf dem Grundstück/Haus anzukündigen. Denn Fremde sind bei ihm eher weniger willkommen. Stellt man ihm die Gäste in Ruhe vor und macht ihm klar, dass es nicht seine Entscheidung ist, wer das Grundstück betreten darf, nimmt er das gut an. Allerdings sind ihm seine Menschen sehr wichtig, und auch diese beansprucht er für sich, an dieser Stelle muss man für ein harmonisches Zusammenleben Regeln etablieren. Sonst übernimmt er den Job als Türsteher und Besuch wird grundsätzlich abgelehnt. Aufgrund seines Verhaltens ist es leider in seinem vorherigen Zuhause zu einem Vorfall gekommen, und er schnappte auf dem eigenen Grundstück nach der Nachbarin. Seitdem ist er als gefährlich Eingestuft und wird von uns auf den Wesenstest vorbereitet. Unser Süß-Bert nimmt Anleitung und Regeln von seiner Bezugsperson ruhig und gut an, von Fremden lässt er sich ungerne was sagen – warum eigentlich auch? Wir würden ja auch nicht tun was uns gesagt wird, wenn bei uns auf der Arbeit plötzlich ein Fremdling kommt und meint uns vorgeben zu wollen wie wir unsere Arbeit zu machen haben. Und trotzdem ist er mit Zeit offen neue Freundschaften zu knüpfen. Andere Hunde im Haushalt sind kein Muss, aber Spieldates oder gemeinsame Spaziergänge wären toll! Aufgrund seines Verhaltens und der Einstufung wird Bert nicht in einen Haushalt mit Kindern vermittelt!

About Bert - reserviert

What life with Bert - reserviert looks like

Bert - reserviert is a large adult romanian shepherd dog waiting at Tierheim Lübeck in Lübeck.

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. 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 Bert - reserviert, answered.

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