How do I contact the shelter about Eddy?

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

Can I adopt Eddy if I live in another country?

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

Eddy

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 8 years

General Name: Eddy Gender: male dog neutered: yes Born around: 2018 Size around: 35cm Location: 54472 Brauneberg Patrons: no reserved: no Character Eddy – friendly, calm senior seeks forever home Eddy is a ca. 8-year-old, neutered mixed-breed male dog living in 54472 Brauneberg. He is 35 cm tall and weighs 18 kilos. He has some extra weight from his previous home and needs to lose weight urgently. Eddy is very friendly and open to people, loves to cuddle. He is a calm companion and very low-maintenance. At the foster home, he lives with seven other dogs and is friendly there, but does not like pushy dogs. Being alone, walking on a leash, and driving are no problems for Eddy. Eddy is house-trained and shows no food intolerances. New strangers are no problem for him. The new home should ideally be ground-floor and not too chaotic. We see him as a single dog, at most a quiet only dog. Eddy originally came from a Romanian animal shelter. He is vaccinated, microchipped, and neutered and will be rehomed through the association Freundeskreis Notfellchen e. V. Past We know nothing about his past. He is likely from the street or was abandoned there. Notes The parent animals are unknown, so no information can be given about the included breeds.

About Eddy

What life with Eddy looks like

Eddy is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Freundeskreis Notfellchen e.V. in Dorsten.

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.
