Emil

Mixed Breed · Male · 7 months

Emil is looking for his people. Emil originally comes from a Romanian animal shelter and is currently staying at a foster home in 88677 Markdorf. At 7 months old, he naturally wants to learn a lot and explore the world. Emil forms a very close bond with his people, which is typical for a German Shepherd mix. However, his home should be rather calm and structured, so any children should be of a more mature age. He gets along well with other dogs in a puppy-like way and would have no objections to being an only dog in his new home, as long as it's a confident one. Anyone who would like to meet Emil is welcome to contact his foster home. Contact:

Emil sucht seine MenschenEmil kommt ursprünglich aus einem rumänischen Tierheim und wohnt zur Zeit auf einer Pflegestelle in 88677 Markdorf. Mit seinen 7 Monaten möchte er natürlich noch viel lernen und die Welt erkunden. Emil bindet sich sehr eng an seinen Menschen, ganz typisch für einen Schäferhund-Mischling. Sein zu Hause sollte allerdings eher ruhig und strukturiert sein, Kinder sollten daher schon in einem verständigen Alter sein. Mit anderen Hunden versteht er sich junghundetypisch gut und hätte gegen einen souveränen Ersthund in seinem neuen zu Hause nichts einzuwenden. Wer Emil kennenlernen möchte darf sich gerne bei seiner Pflegestelle melden. Kontakt: Kristin Brutsch

About Emil

What life with Emil looks like

Emil is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein Markdorf in Markdorf.

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 Emil, answered.

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