adoption requirements adoption process Ask about this animal now! adoption requirements adoption process Ask about this dog now! Edgar is a male dog of about five years old and a strong herding dog mix with thick, white fur and a distinctive dark facial marking. We do not know what he has experienced so far, but he is currently waiting at the public shelter in Baia Mare for his happy ending. With his impressive appearance, he looks remarkable, but behind his outward appearance is a friendly, rather uncertain dog who likes to be touched and cautiously makes contact with people. As Edgar probably had little experience living closely with humans so far, he is somewhat unsure in new situations. He does not yet know life in a house, so he must be gradually introduced to these things. For him, many things are new: harness and leash, everyday noises, routines in the house, closeness to people, and living together in a family. All of this must be learned by Edgar. Currently, we do not know his compatibility with other dogs, so a controlled introduction to other animals would be important. Overall, he appears friendly but rather reserved. He is about 70 cm tall. For Edgar, we are looking for loving, patient, and responsible people who understand the needs of a herding dog. Adopters of Edgars should have already familiarized themselves with the breed-specific characteristics and preferably live in a rural area. Edgar would ideally have a garden or yard where he can move freely. Herding dogs often have a loyal, friendly, but also very independent character. Edgar is looking for people who give him time to build trust and accompany him safely through his new world. Attending a dog training class or working with a specialized trainer is recommended to provide him with orientation and support his development positively. An experienced foster home could also be an ideal stepping stone for the beautiful male dog into a new and happy dog life. If you think you are the right people for Edgar, please contact us. Edgar can be adopted after a positive assessment. We would like to thank the name sponsor Beke, who gave the beautiful Edgar his name. Date: 18.04. This animal is vaccinated. This animal is microchipped.

Vermittlungsvoraussetzungen Vermittlungsablauf Jetzt dieses Tier anfragen! Vermittlungsvoraussetzungen Vermittlungsablauf Jetzt diesen Hund anfragen! Edgar ist ein etwa fünf Jahre alter Rüde und ein stattlicher Herdenschutzhundmix mit dichtem, weißem Fell und einer markanten dunklen Gesichtszeichnung. Was er bisher erlebt hat wissen wir nicht, aktuell wartet er im öffentlichen Shelter von Baia Mare auf sein Happy End. Mit seinem imposanten Aussehen wirkt er beeindruckend, doch hinter seinem äußeren Erscheinungsbild steckt ein freundlicher, eher noch unsicherer Hund, der sich gern anfassen lässt und vorsichtig Kontakt zu Menschen aufnimmt. Da Edgar wahrscheinlich bisher kaum Erfahrung im engen Zusammenleben mit Menschen sammeln konnte, zeigt er sich in neuen Situationen noch etwas unsicher. Das Leben im Haus kennt er noch nicht, weshalb er Schritt für Schritt an diese Dinge herangeführt werden muss. Für ihn ist vieles neu: Geschirr und Leine, Alltagsgeräusche, Routinen im Haus, Nähe zu Menschen und das gemeinsame Leben in einer Familie. Das alles muss Edgar noch lernen. Mit Hündinnen ist Edgar verträglich, das Verhalten bei Rüden ist noch unbekannt. Grundsätzlich zeigt er sich freundlich, aber eher zurückhaltend. Er ist ca. 70 cm groß. Für Edgar suchen wir liebevolle, geduldige und verantwortungsbewusste Menschen, die Verständnis für die Bedürfnisse eines Herdenschutzhundes mitbringen. Edgars Adoptant:innen sollten sich bereits mit den rassetypischen Eigenschaften auseinandergesetzt haben eher ländlich wohnen. Gerne hätte Edgar einen Garten oder einen Hof, in dem er sich frei bewegen kann. Herdenschutzhunde haben oft einen treuen, freundlichen, aber auch sehr eigenständigen Charakter. Edgar sucht Menschen, die ihm Zeit geben, Vertrauen aufzubauen, und ihn sicher durch seine neue Welt begleiten. Der Besuch einer Hundeschule oder eines spezialisierten Trainers wird empfohlen, um ihm Orientierung zu geben und seine Entwicklung positiv zu unterstützen. Auch eine erfahrene Pflegestelle könnte für den wunderschönen Rüden ein ideales Sprungbrett in ein neues und glückliches Hundeleben darstellen. Wenn ihr meint, ihr seid die richtigen Menschen für Edgar, dann meldet euch gerne bei uns. Edgar kann nach einer positiven Vorkontrolle und gegen eine Schutzgebühr kastriert, entfloht, entwurmt, geimpft und gechipt in ein neues Zuhause ziehen. Wir bedanken uns herzlich bei der Namenspatin Beke, die dem wunderschönen Edgar seinen Namen geschenkt hat. Stand: 20.06.2026 Weitere Informationen zum Thema Vorkontrolle und Schutzgebühr

About Edgar

What life with Edgar looks like

Edgar is a extra-large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Ein Herz für Streuner e.V. in München.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 Edgar, answered.

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