Crabby

Poodle · Male

Crabby ist ein junger Hund, der zunächst gerne etwas skeptisch auf neue Situationen schaut und auch bei fremden Menschen erstmal misstrauisch ist. Er braucht Zeit um mit Menschen warm zu werden. Hat er Vertrauen gefasst, siegt seine Neugier und er zeigt sich als aufgeschlossener und manchmal geradezu anhänglicher Junghund. Im Tierheim arbeiten wir an seiner Grunderziehung, er lernt die Grundkommandos und auch Leinenführigkeit jetzt nach und nach kennen. Nun gilt es für seine zukünftigen Menschen, das Gelernte weiter auszubauen und ihm dabei zu helfen, auch über längere Zeit konzentriert zu bleiben und vor allem immer besser zur Ruhe zu kommen. Mit anderen Hunden ist Crabby verträglich. Dabei zeigt er sich aktuell eher devot und bringt mit seiner albernen, verspielten Art gerne ein bisschen Aufregung in die Hundegesellschaft. Auf Spaziergängen ist Crabby oft auf der Suche nach Fressbarem am Wegesrand. Deshalb ist er an das Tragen eines Maulkorbs gewöhnt. Crabby ist außerdem sehr aktiv und definitiv kein Couchpotato. Fellpflege wie regelmäßiges Bürsten ist bei ihm sehr wichtig, da seine Locken zum Filzen neigen. Für Crabby suchen wir Menschen ohne Kinder, die bereit sind, mit ihm weiter an seiner Erziehung zu arbeiten, ihm klare und faire Orientierung zu geben und ihm geduldig zu zeigen, dass Entspannung und Ruhe ebenso zum Alltag gehören wie Action und Abenteuer.

About Crabby

What life with Crabby looks like

Crabby is a adult poodle dog waiting at Tierheim Uhlenkrog Kiel in Kiel.

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 Crabby, answered.

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