Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

Chappy is a friendly and easy-going young male dog. He was found in the Romanian village of Sânmartin, where he was wandering alone on the street. He was taken in by the "Offene Tierheim" in Sisterea and is now looking for a home. The handsome dog is playful, cheerful, and alert. He has a curious little explorer in him, who is open to new experiences. Chappy is not a dog who just wants to "be there." He wants to build a relationship with his humans, experience things with them, and grow. He has the potential to be a wonderful companion. Chappy needs young people who share his joie de vivre and do a lot with him. Chappy was born around June 2025 and is 60 cm tall. He has been vaccinated, chipped, and neutered. Before his departure, he will receive a heartworm test. Please contact us by phone at: 05085 - 955171 if you are interested in him.

About Chappy

What life with Chappy looks like

Chappy is a large young adult mixed breed dog waiting at ITV Grenzenlos e.V. in Essel.

A young 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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Chappy, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Chappy?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. ITV Grenzenlos e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Chappy on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Chappy if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — ITV Grenzenlos 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Chappy 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 Chappy 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 ITV Grenzenlos e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Chappy 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.
