Bim

Male

Hallöchen Ihr lieben Menschen da draußen, ich bin der bildschöne, sehr sensible BIM und bin absolut bereit für mein neues Zuhause. Ich komme ursprünglich aus der Ukraine, wurde hier her vermittelt und eigentlich sollte dann mein perfektes Leben losgehen. Dem war leider nicht so und aufgrund des Ablebens meiner Besitzerin landete ich schlussendlich hier im Tierheim. Nun gut, dass zu meiner turbulenten Vergangenheit, jetzt beginnt meine Zukunft. Ich bin ein vorsichtiger Junge und schaue mir neue Situationen erstmal ganz genau an, nachdem was ich bereits mitgemacht hab, absolut verständlich. Hier taue ich aber immer mehr auf und meine Spaziergänger und Pfleger werden offen und voller Freude begrüßt. Ich traue mich Tag für Tag mehr und genieße die Zeit außerhalb des Tierheims. Ich werde mit zu Tollen, neuen Orten genommen und kann gar nicht genug vom Laufen bekommen. Was wünsche ich mir für meine Zukunft? Ich möchte gerne in aller Ruhe ankommen dürfen, ein zu aufregendes Zuhause, das wäre tatsächlich nichts für mich. Eine Familie, die aktiv mit mir zusammen leben würde, das wäre klasse, denn ein Couchpotato, bin ich jetzt wirklich nicht. Ich möchte weiterhin gezeigt bekommen, wie schön das Leben ist und Seite an Seite mit meinen Menschen die Welt erkunden. Könntest du dir vorstellen, mit mir gemeinsam durch dick und dünn zu gehen? Ich freue mich auf ein Kennenlernen.

About Bim

What life with Bim looks like

Bim is a adult dog waiting at Tierheim Essen in Essen.

An 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 Bim, answered.

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