How do I contact the shelter about Bodo?

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

Can I adopt Bodo if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Rastatt 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 Bodo 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 Bodo 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 Rastatt early rather than rehoming privately; they know Bodo 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.

Bodo

Male · Adult · 5 years

Bodo | born ca. 2021 | Anatolian Shepherd Mix | male, unneutered | Bodos Weg led to the animal shelter on May 23, 2022, as he unfortunately was tied to the gate overnight. Now, Bodo is on the hunt for his new home. He is a male, unneutered, and a large mixed breed. It is estimated that a Kangal might be part of him. Bodo is on the lookout for people who already have dog experience and are confident and consistent in their handling. Physical pressure with Bodo yields little. At the animal shelter, Bodo gets stressed quickly among the many other dogs. Bodo goes on long walks every week with his handler. He is very well-behaved during these walks, and strangers and other dogs are no reason for him to get nervous. With us, Bodo is well-oriented outdoors and generally more relaxed. Many adventures or high energy needs are not required for Bodo. As long as he can lie in the yard and feel the fresh air, he is happy. He also feels comfortable indoors. Typical herdshepherds, Bodo will never be a fan of visitors, which can be managed well without working against his genetics. Interested in Bodo? Fill out our interested parties form.

Bodo | geb. ca. 2021 | Anatolischer Hirtenhund Mix | männlich, unkastriert | Bodos Weg führte am 23.05.2022 ins Tierheim, da er leider am Tor über Nacht angebunden wurde. Nun ist Bodo auf der Suche nach seinem neuen Zuhause. Er ist männlich, unkastriert und ein großer Mischling. Schätzungsweise dürfte ein Kangal mit dabei sein. Bodo ist auf der Suche nach Menschen, die bereits Hundeerfahrung haben und selbstbewusst und konsequent im Umgang sind. Mit körperlichem Druck kann bei Bodo wenig erreicht werden. Im Tierheim ist Bodo mit den vielen anderen Hunden schnell gestresst. Bodo geht jede Woche mit seinem Gassigeher große Runden spazieren. Er wird dabei sehr gelobt, Fremde Menschen und andere Hunde sind kein Grund für ihn, aus der Ruhe zu kommen. Mit uns ist Bodo draußen gut orientiert und zeigt sich allgemein entspannter. Viel Abenteuer oder Auslastung benötigt man bei Bodo nicht. Solange er im Hof liegen darf und viel frische Luft spüren kann, ist er glücklich. Er fühlt sich aber auch im Innenbereich wohl. Typisch Herdenschützer wird Bodo nie ein Fan von Besuch sein, was sich gut regeln lässt, ohne mühselig gegen seine Genetik zu arbeiten. Interesse an Bodo? Füllen Sie unser Interessentenformular aus.

About Bodo

What life with Bodo looks like

Bodo is a large adult dog waiting at Tierheim Rastatt in Rastatt.

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. Animals leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with a valid EU pet passport. Adoption fees usually fall between €250 and €450, covering veterinary preparation.
