How do I contact the shelter about Cooper?

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

Can I adopt Cooper if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Stuttgart 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 Cooper 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 Cooper 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 Stuttgart early rather than rehoming privately; they know Cooper 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.

Cooper

Male · Adult · 7 years

over: 🍀 Other dogs: yes, rather with female dogs Other animals: no, prey drive Children: no, I like my peace Dog experience: experience in behavior correction Issues: independent, don't want to be pressured, needs sovereign leadership Special: well-behaved, runs great on the leash, can also stay alone, travels well in the car Hello, I'm Cooper. With my trusted people, I am a very affectionate, slightly shy dog. I am compatible with other dogs by sympathy. Some male dogs I simply can't stand. I've learned a lot, but you should definitely have dog experience! Because I can become very uncomfortable if something doesn't suit me. For example, I don't like strangers near me at all. Children should also not live in my new home. Do you think we would be a good match? Then please send an email and tell me something about yourselves and why you believe you are the right ones for me. Let's see, maybe we can meet each other in person soon. Videos:

Andere Hunde: ja, eher mit Hündinnen Andere Tiere: nein, Jagdtrieb Kinder: nein, möchte seine Ruhe Hundeerfahrung: Hundeerfahrung in Verhaltenskorrektur Probleme: eigenständig, möchte nicht bedrängt werden, braucht souveräne Führung Besonderheit: gut erzogen, läuft super an der Leine, kann auch mal alleine bleiben, fährt gut im Auto mit Hallo, ich bin Cooper. Mit meinen Bezugspersonen bin ich ein sehr lieber verschmuster Hund. Mit anderen Hunden bin ich nach Sympathie verträglich. Manche Rüden kann ich gar nicht leiden. Ich habe schon einiges gelernt, trotzdem solltet ihr unbedingt Hundeerfahrung haben! Denn ich kann sehr ungemütlich werden, wenn mir etwas nicht gefällt. Fremde Menschen mag ich zum Beispiel gar nicht in meiner Nähe. Kinder sollten ebenfalls eher keine in meinem neuen Zuhause leben. Ihr denkt wir passen gut zusammen? Dann schreibt doch bitte eine Mail an: und erzählt darin etwas über euch und warum ihr glaubt die Richtigen für mich zu sein. Mal sehen, vielleicht dürfen wir uns dann schon bald einmal persönlich kennen lernen. Videos: Cooper im Training >hier klicken< Cooper hat seine 5 Minuten hier klicken

About Cooper

What life with Cooper looks like

Cooper is a medium-sized adult dog waiting at Tierheim Stuttgart in Stuttgart.

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.

Note from the shelter: Requires behavioral training and experienced handling. Does not like strangers and can become uncomfortable when pressured. Has prey drive.

🇩🇪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.
