Dexter (m)

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Adult · 8 years

<3 on foster in 90473 Nuremberg <3 DEXTER, born approx. 2016 (according to the veterinarian in Germany max 8 years old) approx. 40-45 cm, around 145 kg, no longer very young, so he had no chance of a good home in Romania. But he was discovered and allowed to travel to Germany on a foster placement and shows himself as a rough diamond there. From the beginning very open and friendly to people, quickly housebroken and well lead-trained. DEXTER loves long walks and is not yet old iron, shows himself very friendly at dog encounters and has no fear of road traffic anymore. He lives quietly in an apartment building and does not bother anyone with barking. DEXTER drives the elevator bravely and climbing stairs is also no longer a problem. Also stays already problem-free for a few hours at home and waits patiently for his mistress. In general, he rests a lot and is a simple and undemanding dog who is very grateful for attention and affection, but does not demand it in an intrusive way. For DEXTER we wish him a loving home, also with a second dog or understanding children, who are already somewhat older. You don't need much dog experience with him, but of course you do need loving consistency. Who has a big heart, is happy to get a reliable, uncomplicated companion in the best age and gives him his heart and many more happy years in safety??? YOU??? Then quickly to the phone and make a date for the great guy. He waits in Nuremberg for nice visitors. DEXTER is neutered, vaccinated, chipped, dewormed and with Snap4D test and EU pass traveled. He will be placed with prior inspection and contract against a deposit through the animal shelter Casa Katharina e.V. Contact: or on fb. All our dogs travel with official Traces papers and of course we also have Paragraph 11

<3 auf Pflegestelle in 90473 Nürnberg <3 DEXTER, geb. ca. 2016,(laut Tierarzt in Deutschland max 8 Jahre alt) ca. 40-45 cm, um 145 kg, nicht mehr blutjung, somit hatte er in Rumänien keinerlei Chancen auf ein gutes Zuhause. Aber er wurde entdeckt und durfte nach Deutschland auf eine Pflegestelle ausreisen und zeigt sich dort als Rohdiamant. Von Anfang an sehr offen und menschenfreundlich, schnell stubenrein und gut leinenführig. DEXTER liebt lange Gassigänge und gehört noch lange nicht zum alten Eisen, zeigt sich bei Hundebegegnungen sehr freundlich und hat auch im Strassenverkehr keine Scheu mehr. Er lebt brav im Mehrfamilienhaus und belästigt auch niemanden mit Bellen. DEXTER fährt brav Aufzug und Treppen steigen ist auch kein Thema mehr. Auch bleibt er schon problemlos mal ein paar Stündchen daheim und wartet brav aufs Frauchen. Generell ruht er viel und ist ein unkomplizierter und anspruchsloser Hund, der für Ansprache und Zuwendung sehr dankbar ist, aber diese nicht aufdringlich einfordert. Für DEXTER wünschen wir uns ein liebevolles zuhause, gerne auch mit Zweithund oder verständigen Kindern, die schon etwas älter sind. Viel Hundeerfahrung braucht man bei ihm nicht, aber liebevolle Konsequenz natürlich schon. Wer hat ein großes Herz, freut sich eine zuverlässigen, unkomplizierten Begleiter im besten Alter zu bekommen und schenkt ihm sein Herz und noch viele glückliche Jahre in Sicherheit??? DU??? Dann schnell ans Telefon und ein Date ausmachen für den tollen Kerl. Er wartet in Nürnberg auf netten Besuch. DEXTER ist kastriert, geimpft, gechipt, entwurmt und mit Snap4D-Test und EU-Pass ausgereist. Er wird mit Vorkontrolle und Vertrag gegen eine Schutzgebühr über die Tiernothilfe Casa Katharina e.V. vermittelt. Kontakt: oder auf fb. Alle unsere Hunde reisen mit offiziellen Tracespapieren und natürlich haben wir auch den Paragraph 11.

About Dexter (m)

What life with Dexter (m) looks like

Dexter (m) is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tiernothilfe Casa Katharina e.V. in Nürnberg.

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 Dexter (m), answered.

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