Bobby

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

We have to part with Bobby due to family and time-related reasons. Bobby was born on May 21, 2021. He is vaccinated and microchipped, but not neutered. He has not had a good start so far. He definitely needs training, time, and love from someone who really knows what they're doing. Inside, he is very relaxed, but outside, he panics around people, especially children. He would likely bite, and currently, he cannot go out without a muzzle. This still requires a lot of time and practice. The best environment for him would be a large yard where he has plenty of space, as he is very playful and full of energy. He is trainable; you just need patience. He gets along with cats and all kinds of dogs. However, he is not comfortable with women, and there should not be any children in the household. A second dog would be great, but it's not a must. Please get in touch if you are interested and have the time to get to know and love him. He will only be given away with a purchase contract and a protection agreement.

Wir müssen uns aus familiären und zeitlichen Gründen von Bobby trennen. Bobby ist am 21.5.2021 geboren. Er ist geimpft und gechipt, nicht kastriert. Er hatte bis jetzt keinen guten Start. Er braucht definitiv Erziehung, Zeit und Liebe. Jemand der sich wirklich auskennt. Drinnen ist er super entspannt, aber draussen hat er Panik vor Menschen und vor allem vor Kindern. Er würde vermutlich auch beissen, ohne Maulkorb kann man aktuell nicht mit ihm raus gehen. Das bedarf noch einiges an Zeit und Übung. Am besten wäre für ihn ein grosser Hof, wo er viel Platz hat, er ist sehr verspielt und hat viel Energie. Er ist lernfähig, man braucht nur Geduld. Er ist verträglich mit Katzen und mit aller Art von Hunden. Mit Frauen hat er es nicht so, und Kinder sollten auch nicht im Haushalt leben. Ein Zweithund wäre super, aber kein Muss. Meldet euch gerne wenn ihr Interesse und Zeit habt ihn kennen und lieben zu lernen. Er wird nur mit Kaufvertrag und Schutzvereinbarung abgegeben.

About Bobby

What life with Bobby looks like

Bobby is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein OHZ e.V. in Osterholz-Scharmbeck.

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. Many dogs and cats leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport, but this varies by shelter, so confirm what is included with the shelter.

Frequently asked

Adopting Bobby, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Bobby?
Use the "View on shelter website" button on this page, which takes you to the shelter's own page. Tierschutzverein OHZ e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Bobby on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Bobby if I live in another country?
Often, but it depends on the shelter and the countries involved. Some rescues place animals abroad and some only adopt out locally, so ask Tierschutzverein OHZ e.V. whether they will for Bobby, what they require (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 Bobby already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Tierschutzverein OHZ e.V. lists Bobby as vaccinated, microchipped and neutered. The adoption fee, and what it covers, is set by Tierschutzverein OHZ e.V., so confirm with them what is included (vaccinations, microchip, sterilization, paperwork) and ask about specific vaccines, recent bloodwork or chronic conditions.
What happens if Bobby isn't the right fit?
Many rescues take an animal back if an adoption doesn't work, but policies differ, so ask Tierschutzverein OHZ e.V. about its return policy before you adopt. If things aren't working, talk it through with them early rather than rehoming privately; they know Bobby 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.
