Doby

Podenco · Male · Young · 1 year

A male mixed breed dog named Doby, approximately 42 cm tall and weighing 13 kg, was born around September 2025. He is compatible with dogs and children, but not yet with cats. We do not know what Doby experienced before being rescued by Animaleas. His entire body was covered in wounds and he was extremely fearful. At the shelter, he has recovered and even begun to overcome his distrust. He now shows his true character to Animaleas: full of life, friendly, playful, and active. What he still needs is a family of his own, a cozy bed, and lots of love. Would you like to give the lovable Doby a place on your sofa and experience adventures with him? You understand that he still has a lot to learn and are willing to work with him and invest time and patience? Great! Visit our website and fill out the self-assessment! We will then contact you.

Doby Rasse: Mix Geschlecht: männlich Geboren ca. September 2025 Schulterhöhe: 42 cm Gewicht: 13 kg Verträglich mit Hunden: ja Verträglich mit Kindern: ja Verträglich mit Katzen: noch nicht getestet Wir wissen nicht, was Doby erlebt hat, bevor er von den Animaleas gerettet wurde. Sein ganzer Körper war mit Wunden übersät und er hatte ungeheure Angst. Im Refugio hat er sich inzwischen erholt und sogar sein Misstrauen schon ein Stück weit hinter sich gelassen. Den Animaleas gegenüber zeigt er jetzt seinen wahren Charakter: voller Lebenslust, freundlich, verspielt und aktiv. Was ihm zu seinem Glück noch fehlt, ist eine eigene Familie, ein eigenes Kuschelbett und ganz viel Liebe. Du möchtest dem lieben Doby ein Plätzchen auf Deinem Sofa schenken und mit ihm Abenteuer erleben? Dir ist klar, dass er noch sehr viel lernen muss, und Du bist bereit, mit ihm zu arbeiten und Zeit und Geduld zu investieren? Prima! Schau gleich auf unserer Homepage vorbei und fülle unter die Selbstauskunft aus! Wir setzen uns dann mit Dir in Verbindung.

About Doby

What life with Doby looks like

Doby is a young adult podenco dog waiting at Tierfreunde im Fläming e.V. in Germany.

An young 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 Doby, answered.

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