His story begins with a shock: Berti was one of twelve puppies abandoned in a river in freezing, wet weather—left to die with absolutely no chance of survival. Tragically, four of his siblings did not survive these cruel circumstances […]

Berti ist ca. 01/2026 geboren und aktuell (1.8.) ca. 40 cm groß und wiegt etwa 13 kg. Seine Geschichte beginnt mit einem Schock: Berti war eines von zwölf Welpen, die bei eiskaltem, nassem Wetter in einem Fluss ausgesetzt wurden – zum Sterben zurückgelassen, ohne jede Chance. Vier seiner Geschwister haben diese grausamen Umstände leider nicht […]

About Berti

What life with Berti looks like

Berti is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierrettung International e.V. in Germany.

An 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. 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 Berti, answered.

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