Chap

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 4 years

Breed: Galgo-Mix Gender: male - neutered Born: June 13, 2022 Color: black-white Size: 55 cm Weight: 20.6 kg In the animal shelter since: August 15, 2024 Chap is currently still held captive by his fear. He tends to retreat and avoids contact with both humans and other dogs. If he recognizes his humans, he also tries to shed some of his fear. During walks, Chap is particularly afraid of strangers, panics, and sometimes bites the leash to escape the situation. In his new home, no other dogs should live, although he gets along well with other dogs during walks. We are looking for patient people with dog experience to take Chap in and show him how wonderful life can be.

Rasse: Galgo-Mix Geschlecht: männlich - kastriert Geboren: 13.06.2022 Farbe: schwarz-weiß Größe: 55 cm Gewicht: 20,6 kg Im Tierheim seit: 15.08.2024 Chap ist aktuell noch in seiner Angst gefangen. Er zieht sich eher zurück und meidet den Kontakt zu Mensch und Hund. Kennt er seine Menschen, versucht er auch mal seine Angst abzulegen. Beim Gassigehen scheut Chap vor allem Unbekannten, bekommt Panik und beißt dann auch mal in die Leine, um aus der Situation zu fliehen. In seinem neuen Zuhause sollten keine andere Hunde leben, wobei er beim Gassigehen mit weiteren Hunden zurecht kommt und gut mit läuft. Wir suchen für Chap geduldige Menschen mit Hundeerfahrung, die ihm die Angst nehmen können und zeigen wie schön das Leben sein kann.

About Chap

What life with Chap looks like

Chap is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutz Hanau in Hanau.

An 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 Chap, answered.

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