How do I contact the shelter about Blacky?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutz Hanau handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Blacky on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Blacky if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutz Hanau 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 Blacky 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 Blacky 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 Tierschutz Hanau early rather than rehoming privately; they know Blacky 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.

Blacky

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

Breed: Jack Russell Terrier Color: black-white Born: ca. May 2015 Gender: male – neutered Weight: 8.6 kg Size: ca. 30 cm At the animal shelter since: 24.07.2025 Blacky is a confident senior who doesn't like to be told to run like the hare. He decides for himself, just as he has for the past 10 years. With limitations, the terrier simply can't handle things differently. He has always lived like a king, so why should anything change now!? He always seeks the company of humans and could be cuddled for hours. He wants to be in the center of attention and has trouble sitting quietly on his own. At first, he was very unfriendly towards fellow animals and would even attack sometimes. Nowadays, he walks politely in groups, behaves rather unobtrusively, and even likes the occasional female dog. Blacky does not want to be alone! This should also be considered if possible. For him, we are looking for a childless household with experienced dog owners who continue dog training, and where no other animals, such as cats or caged animals, live in the household.

Rasse: Jack Russel Terrier Farbe: schwarz-weiß Geboren: ca. 05/2015 Geschlecht: männlich – kastriert Gewicht: 8,6 kg Größe: ca. 30 cm Im Tierheim seit: 24.07.2025 Blacky ist ein selbstbewusster Senior, der sich nicht gerne sagen lässt, wie der Hase läuft. Das entscheidet er nämlich. Hat er auch schließlich 10 Jahre lang so gemacht. Mit Einschränkungen kann der Terrier deshalb überhaupt nicht umgehen. Er hat immer gelebt wie der König, wieso sollte sich jetzt daran etwas ändern!? Er sucht stets die Nähe des Menschen und könnte den ganzen Tag geschmust werden. Er möchte im Mittelpunkt stehen und hat Schwierigkeiten damit, mal ruhig auf seinem Platz zu sitzen. Anfangs war er Artgenossen gegenüber sehr unfreundlich und hat auch gern mal attackiert. Mittlerweile läuft er manierlich in Gruppen mit, verhält sich recht unauffällig und mag sogar die ein oder andere Hündin. Alleine bleiben kann und will Blacky nicht! Das sollte auch, wenn möglich, berücksichtigt werden. Für ihn suchen wir einen kinderlosen Haushalt mit erfahrenen Hundehaltern, die Hundeerziehung fortführen, und wo keine weiteren Tiere, wie Katzen und Heimtiere, im Haushalt leben. Wenn Sie Blacky kennenlernen möchten, rufen Sie uns bitte an unter 06181 - 45116 oder schreiben Sie an Wenn Sie Blacky kennenlernen möchten, rufen Sie uns bitte an unter 06181 - 45116 oder schreiben Sie an

About Blacky

What life with Blacky looks like

Blacky is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutz Hanau in Hanau.

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.
