How do I contact the shelter about Festus?

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

Can I adopt Festus if I live in another country?

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

Festus

Mixed Breed · Female

A male unneutered beige-black mixed breed dog from Romania, approximately 25 cm tall, born around March 2026, friendly, curious, playful, and people-oriented, typical of a puppy. The dog is vaccinated (rabies and two rounds of basic immunization), microchipped, and equipped with an EU pet passport. We cover the costs for testing on common Mediterranean diseases: babesiosis, ehrlichiosis, leishmaniasis, rickettsia, filariae, hepatozoonosis, anaplasmosis. Only dogs that have passed a preliminary check (home visit) are placed against a deposit with a contract. Important documents: Self-report for adopters Self-report for foster homes *The information about the dogs (especially those still in Romania) is without guarantee. The records only show snapshots. Volunteers recorded the dogs to the best of their knowledge and belief. Therefore, there may be discrepancies regarding age, size, gender, health, and behavior. We are an active alliance partner!

About Festus

What life with Festus looks like

Festus is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierhilfe Lebenswert e.V. in Oberwies.

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.
