Bowie

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 6 months

Bowie was born on 02/26 and despite his difficult start in life has retained his cheerful and open nature. He was abandoned along with his five siblings at the edge of a forest during a week of continuous rain. The little puppies were completely soaked, hungry and shivering from cold when they were found. Fortunately dedicated animal lovers were able to rescue […]

Bowie ist ca 02/26 geboren und hat trotz seines schweren Starts ins Leben seine fröhliche und offene Art bewahrt. Gemeinsam mit seinen fünf Geschwistern wurde er während einer Woche voller Dauerregen am Waldrand ausgesetzt. Die kleinen Welpen waren völlig durchnässt, hungrig und vor Kälte zitternd, als sie gefunden wurden. Zum Glück konnten engagierte Tierschützer die […]

About Bowie

What life with Bowie looks like

Bowie is a puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Tierrettung International e.V. in Germany.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇩🇪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 Bowie, answered.

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