How do I contact the shelter about Dobby?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tiere in Spanien e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Dobby on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Dobby if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tiere in Spanien 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 Dobby 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 Dobby 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 Tiere in Spanien e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Dobby 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.

Dobby

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 9 years

Dobby is a young male dog of just one year old and he brings everything that you would want from a young dog. He is cheerful, curious, people-oriented and full of joie de vivre. His radiant smile and his loyal eyes make everyone smile immediately. The handsome male is compatible with all dogs and enjoys walks together, play sessions or just company. With his friendly nature he would fit well into an existing pack of dogs, but he would also be happy as a single prince - the main thing is that he can finally be part of a loving family. Dobby wants to discover the world, experience adventures with his humans and then sleep content on his cuddly spot. He wants to learn so much, attend dog school and explore the world together with his humans. He would also have a lot of fun with mental stimulation in the form of search games, dummy training etc., he wants to be promoted and employed. Dobby is looking forward to people who give him love and security. He is already eagerly waiting to arrive and show what a loyal companion he is. Maybe at your place.

Größe: 48cmAlter: *07/2025. Verträglich mitRüden: JaHündinnen: JaKatzen: noch nicht getestetBei uns seit: 07/2026Aufenthaltsort: Tierheim Amposta Juli 2026 – Dobby ist ein junger Rüde von gerade mal einem Jahr und er bringt alles mit was man sich von einem jungen Hund wünscht. Er ist fröhlich, neugierig, menschenbezogen und steckt voller Lebensfreude. Sein strahlendes Lächeln und seine treuen Augen zaubern jedem sofort ein Lächeln ins Gesicht. Der hübsche Rüde ist verträglich mit allen Hunden und freut sich über gemeinsame Spaziergänge, Spielrunden oder einfach nur über Gesellschaft. Mit seiner freundlichen Art würde er sich gut in ein bereits vorhandenes Hunderudel einfügen, würde aber genauso gut als Einzelprinz glücklich werden – Hauptsache er darf endlich Teil einer liebevollen Familie sein. Dobby möchte die Welt entdecken, gemeinsam mit seinen Menschen Abenteuer erleben und anschließend zufrieden auf seinem Kuschelplatz einschlafen. Er möchte noch soviel lernen, die Hundeschule besuchen und zusammen mit seinen Menschen die Welt erkunden. Auch an geistiger Auslastung in Form von Suchspielen, Dummytraining etc. hätte er viel Spaß, er möchte gefördert und beschäftigt werden. Dobby freut sich auf Menschen, die ihm Liebe und Geborgenheit schenken. Er wartet schon sehnsüchtig darauf endlich anzukommen und zu zeigen, was für ein treuer Begleiter er ist. Vielleicht bei Ihnen.

About Dobby

What life with Dobby looks like

Dobby is a medium-sized senior mixed breed dog waiting at Tiere in Spanien e.V. in Hamburg.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇩🇪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.
