How do I contact the shelter about Cooper?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutzverein Porz 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 — Tierschutzverein Porz 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 Tierschutzverein Porz 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

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Puppy · 4 months

4 months old (August 2026) Height at the shoulder: he will grow to about 55 cm Sometimes the start of a new life doesn't go as one wishes for a little puppy... I was able to move into a new home on the weekend, but unfortunately the dog there didn't like me at all. So I'm now in my loving foster home and waiting there patiently for the people who will really let me stay forever. 🏡 WELPENJUNGE COOPER ❤️ In my foster home I show myself as a puppy should: friendly, playful, curious and of course I also like to cuddle. There is so much to discover for me now! 🌎 Every new day brings new smells, new impressions and small adventures. And right now my life is just starting. What I still lack is my own family - people who show me the world, teach me everything I need to know, people who lovingly accompany me through life and promise me that I will really stay this time. I wish for a home where I will be loved, where they have patience with a young dog and where I can grow into a great companion for life. Of course, I am vaccinated and chipped and bring my EU pet passport with me. 🐾📘 Maybe you are the person I have been waiting for so eagerly? Maybe there is still a bed available and in your heart exactly the place that has been missing so far? 🥰🏡❤️ Then please contact me... because I want to finally arrive. Forever. 🐾💙 🙏🏽 Please share me a lot so that I can find my heart people quickly! 🙏🏽 More photos in the comments ⬇️ (Mon-Fri from 11-18) Tel.: display: none !important; .lSSlideOuter .lSPager.lSGallery

Alter: 4 Monate alt (August 2026) Schulterhöhe: er wird ungefähr 55 cm groß Manchmal läuft der Start ins neue Leben leider nicht so, wie man es sich für ein kleines Hundekind wünscht… Ich durfte am WE bereits in ein neues Zuhause ziehen, aber leider mochte der dort vorhandene Hund mich überhaupt nicht. Deshalb bin ich nun in meiner liebevollen Pflegestelle und warte dort ganz geduldig auf die Menschen, bei denen ich wirklich für immer ankommen darf. 🏡 WELPENJUNGE COOPER ❤️ In meiner Pflegestelle zeige ich mich so, wie ein Welpenjunge sein sollte: freundlich, verspielt, neugierig und natürlich schmuse ich auch gerne . Für mich gibt es jetzt so unglaublich viel zu entdecken! 🌎 Jeder neue Tag bringt neue Gerüche, neue Eindrücke und kleine Abenteuer. Und genau jetzt beginnt mein Leben erst richtig. Was mir noch fehlt, ist meine eigene Familie – Menschen, die mir die Welt zeigen, mir alles beibringen was ich wissen muss, Menschen die mich liebevoll durchs Leben begleiten und mir versprechen, dass ich diesmal wirklich bleiben darf. Ich wünsche mir ein Zuhause, in dem ich geliebt werde, in dem man Geduld mit einem jungen Hund hat und in dem ich zu einem tollen Begleiter fürs ganze Leben heranwachsen darf. Selbstverständlich bin ich geimpft und gechipt und bringe meinen EU-Heimtierausweis mit. 🐾📘 Vielleicht bist DU ja genau der Mensch, auf den ich schon so sehnsüchtig warte? Vielleicht ist bei dir noch ein Körbchen frei und in deinem Herzen genau der Platz, der bisher noch gefehlt hat? 🥰🏡❤️ Dann melde dich bitte für mich… denn ich möchte endlich ankommen. Für immer. 🐾💙 🙏🏽 Teilt mich bitte ganz fleißig, damit ich ganz schnell meine Herzensmenschen mich finden! 🙏🏽 Weitere Fotos in den Kommentaren ⬇️ ( Mo-Fr von 11-18 Uhr ) Tel.: display: none !important; .lSSlideOuter .lSPager.lSGallery {

About Cooper

What life with Cooper looks like

Cooper is a small puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein Porz in Köln.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇩🇪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.
