Adopt Darun

Dachshund · Male

Darun was exposed on a field near a village in the cold winter. When found, he was half-frozen in a bush. At first, he was wary at the animal shelter, unfortunately, he can no longer hear and see properly, which certainly made the getting-to-know process more difficult. But he has thawed out, is very friendly, and is greatly appreciated by the shelter staff. He also gets along well with the dogs and even plays with them a little. Where can Darun spend his golden years in peace and security? If you have a spot available, please feel free to contact us. Contact:

Darun wurde im kalten Winter in der Nähe eines Dorfes auf einem Acker ausgesetzt. Als er gefunden wurde, saß er halb erfroren in einem Gebüsch. Anfangs war er misstrauisch im Tierheim, leider hört und sieht er nicht mehr richtig, was das Kennenlernen natürlich noch erschwerte. Aber er ist aufgetaut, freundlich und sehr gerne bei den Tierheimmitarbeitenden. Auch mit den Hunden kommt er gut zurecht und spielt sogar noch ein wenig mit ihnen. Wo darf Darun seinen Lebensabend in Ruhe und Geborgenheit verbringen? Falls ihr einen Platz frei habt, meldet euch gerne. Kontakt: Melanie Kulle → WhatsApp oder

About Darun

What life with Darun looks like

Darun is a adult dachshund dog waiting at Herz für Ungarnhunde e.V. in Nörten-Hardenberg.

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 Darun, answered.

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