How do I contact the shelter about Bobi T?

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

Can I adopt Bobi T if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Hundepfoten Steinfurt 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 Bobi T 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 Bobi T 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 Hundepfoten Steinfurt e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Bobi T 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.

Adopt Bobi T

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 12 years

Bobi & Pamela – Seniorenhunde suchenein liebevolles ZuhauseBobi is a lovable senior dog who urgently needs a home where he can finally find peace and love. Bobi was brought to the vet by the heirs of his previous owner along with Pamela to be put to sleep – luckily, we were able to save him. He was born in July 2014, is 30 cm tall, and weighs 12.2 kg.Bobi clearly shows how much he was neglected in his life: he is heartworm-positive, has anemia, age-related arthritis, muscle wasting, and long-neglected claws that make walking difficult. Additionally, he had several teeth extracted, his heart is enlarged, and he has mild pulmonary edema. He is currently being treated for heartworms.Typically, Bobi is an incredibly patient and loving dog. He longs for a warm spot, gentle cuddles, and security. Bobi is looking for a home together with Pamela – perhaps a small miracle will happen and the two can stay together. If that is not possible, they will also be rehomed separately. Who will give this wonderful dog, who has experienced so much neglect, a loving home at last? Bobi has no problems with other dogs. He can also live in a household with cats. We are happy to answer any questions.

Bobi & Pamela – Seniorenhunde suchenein liebevolles ZuhauseBobi ist ein liebenswerter Seniorhund, der dringend ein Zuhause sucht, in dem er endlich Ruhe und Liebe spüren darf. Bobi wurde von den Erben seines Vorbesitzers zusammen mit Pamela zum Tierarzt gebracht, um eingeschläfert zu werden – zum Glück konnten wir ihn noch retten. Er wurde im Juli 2014 geboren, ist 30 cm groß und wiegt 12,2 kg.Bobi zeigt deutlich, wie sehr er in seinem Leben vernachlässigt wurde: Er ist herzwurm-positiv, hat eine Anämie, altersbedingte Arthrose, Muskelschwund und lange vernachlässigte Krallen, die das Laufen erschweren. Außerdem musste er mehrere Zähne ziehen lassen, sein Herz ist vergrößert und er hat ein leichtes Lungenödem. Er wird momenatan gegen die Herzwürmer behandelt.Trotz allem ist Bobi ein unglaublich geduldiger und liebevoller Hund. Er sehnt sich nach einem warmen Plätzchen, sanften Streicheleinheiten und Geborgenheit. Bobi sucht gemeinsam mit Pamela ein Zuhause – vielleicht geschieht ja ein kleines Wunder und die beiden dürfen zusammenbleiben. Sollte das nicht möglich sein, werden sie auch getrennt vermittelt. Wer schenkt diesem wundervollen Hund, der so viel Vernachlässigung erfahren hat, endlich ein liebevolles Zuhause? Bobi hat keine Probleme mit anderen Hunden. Er kann auch in einem Haushalt mit Katzen ziehen. Gerne beantworten wir Ihre Fragen.

About Bobi T

What life with Bobi T looks like

Bobi T is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at Hundepfoten Steinfurt e.V. in Nordwalde.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇩🇪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.
