Buddy

English Bulldog · Male · Young · 2 years

Buddy was taken from the authority due to poor husbandry. The male dog is a very friendly dog with a lot of temperament. He is affectionately called "Dampfwalze" here because he is quite stormy when he is happy about someone. Therefore, children in the new home should be older. With other dogs, it depends on their sympathy, but they should also be able to endure his nature. Buddy is leash-trained outside and oriented towards humans. We are unsure if he can stay alone, as he might urinate on his blanket once a day out of protest. But with some practice, that should definitely work out. Buddy likely has a food allergy and is currently on hypoallergenic food, as he came to us with severe ear inflammation, among other things. Who will give our Buddy a forever home and take good care of him?

DE·Show original

Buddy wurde aus schlechter Haltung vom Amt abgenommen. Der Rüde ist ein sehr freundlicher Hund mit viel Temperament. Hier wird er liebevoll auch „Dampfwalze“ genannt, da er doch sehr stürmisch ist, wenn er sich über jemanden freut. Kinder im neuen Zuhause sollten deshalb schon größer sein. Bei anderen Hunden entscheidet die Sympathie, aber auch diese sollten seine Art ertragen können. Buddy ist draußen leinenführig und orientiert sich am Menschen. Wir sind uns unsicher, ob er alleine bleiben kann, da er hier vermutlich aus Protest einmal täglich auf seine Decke pinkelt. Aber mit etwas Übung klappt bestimmt auch das. Buddy hat vermutlich eine Futtermittelallergie und bekommt aktuell hypoallergenes Futter, da er unter anderem mit einer hochgradiger Ohrenentzündung zu uns gekommen ist. Wer gibt unserem Buddy ein Zuhause für immer und kümmert sich gut um ihn?

About Buddy

What life with Buddy looks like

Buddy is a young adult english bulldog dog waiting at Tierheim Nürnberg in Nuremberg.

An young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Buddy, answered.

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