How do I contact the shelter about Pol?

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

Can I adopt Pol if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Hundehoffnung-Berlin 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 Pol 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 Pol 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 Hundehoffnung-Berlin early rather than rehoming privately; they know Pol 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.

Pol

Labrador Retriever · Male · Adult · 4 years

POL SUCHT SEIN ZUHAUSE – AM LIEBSTEN AUF DEM LAND! Pol ist ein unglaublich lieber, menschenbezogener und lernwilliger Hund. Zuhause zeigt er sich als echtes Schoßhündchen und liebt die Nähe zu seinen Menschen. Draußen braucht Pol allerdings erfahrene Menschen an seiner Seite. Bewegungsreize wie Fahrradfahrer, Jogger, laufende Kinder oder Lkw können ihn stark triggern und er versucht, diesen hinterherzujagen. Ein Hundetrainer ist bereits eingebunden und Pol macht Fortschritte – trotzdem braucht er weiterhin konsequentes Training und Menschen, die ihm sicher und souverän Führung geben. Sein Traum wäre ein Haus mit großem, sicher eingezäuntem Grundstück in einem ruhigen Dorf. Freilaufen und Platz zum Toben liebt Pol über alles! Wir suchen für ihn erfahrene Menschen ohne kleine Kinder, die bereit sind, mit ihm weiterzuarbeiten und ihm die nötige Sicherheit zu geben. Mit anderen Hunden ist Pol sehr gut verträglich, größere Kinder/Teenager kennt er inzwischen gut. FAKTEN ZU POL �� ursprünglich aus Spanien – Galicien �� seit 26.04.2026 in Deutschland �� Frankfurt (Oder) �� ca. 50–55 cm �� Mischling (vermutlich Labrador & Jagdhund) ✂️ kastriert �� sehr gut mit anderen Hunden ❤️ menschenbezogen & lernwillig Pol ist kein Stadthund – aber vielleicht genau der Hund für Menschen, die sich nach einem treuen Begleiter fürs Landleben sehnen. Wenn unser Pol ihr Interesse geweckt hat, dann zögern Sie nicht, sondern kontaktieren uns bitte. Natürlich kann Pol auf seiner Pflegestelle in Absprache jederzeit gerne kennengelernt werden. Pol ist bereits vollständig geimpft, kastriert, entwurmt, gechipt, hat alle tierärztlichen Voruntersuchungen und einen aktuellen negativen Mittelmeertest sowie einen EU Ausweis.

About Pol

What life with Pol looks like

Pol is a large adult labrador retriever dog waiting at Hundehoffnung-Berlin in Germany.

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.
