Copper

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

Copper & Edward lebte ihr bisheriges Leben an einer kurzen Kette. Eine örtliche Tierschützerin bemerkte die Haltung und überzeugte den Besitzer beide Hunde abzugeben. So kamen die beiden Mischlinge in unsere Rettungsstation. Copper ist ein wirklich freundlicher und lieber Kerl. Welche Rassen genau in ihm stecken können wir nicht sagen. Bisher zeigt er sich offen und zugänglich bei jedem, den er trifft. Auch andere Hunde scheinen kein Problem zu sein. Bisher lebte er gemeinsam mit Edward auf einem Grundstück, aber noch nie in einem Haus oder einer Wohnung. Generell kennt er das Leben drinnen noch nicht & muss es erst noch lernen. Unserer Erfahrung nach verstehen erwachsene Hunde das Leben im Haus aber recht schnell. Er scheint auch ein cleveres Kerlchen zu sein, was das Training und die Erziehung erleichtern sollte. Kinder sollten mind. im Grundschulalter sein und Hundeerfahrung mitbringen. Da er bisher nicht viel kennenlernen durfte, sehen wir ihn eher auf dem Land oder am Stadtrand, wo er sich langsam an neue Reize gewöhnen kann. Aufgrund seiner offenen und freundlichen Art könnten wir uns auch bei motivierten Anfängern vorstellen, die von Anfang an mit einer Hundeschule zusammenarbeiten. Wir glauben, dass Copper unglaublich viel Potenzial hat ein wundervoller Begleiter zu werden, wenn er von den richtigen Menschen adoptiert wird. Er ist im perfekten Alter für seine zweite Chance auf Glück, um noch viele tolle Jahre mit seinen Menschen zu verbringen. Copper kann ab sofort ausreisen. Du möchtest Copper adoptieren? Dann fülle einfach das Bewerbungsformular aus! HINWEIS: Alle Hunde werden zeitgleich durch das deutsche & ungarische Team vermittelt. Auf beiden Seiten kann es zu Reservierungen kommen.

About Copper

What life with Copper looks like

Copper is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Spitz und Pawtners e.V. in Germany.

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 Copper, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Copper?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Spitz und Pawtners e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Copper on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Copper if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Spitz und Pawtners 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Copper 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 Copper 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 Spitz und Pawtners e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Copper 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.
