How do I contact the shelter about Forest?

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 Forest on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Forest 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 Forest 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 Forest 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 Forest 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.

Forest

Male · Young · 2 years

Name: Forest Breed: Mastín Español Gender: Male Height: approx. 65 cm Date of Birth: 15 March 2024 Weight: approx. 34 kg Child-friendly: Yes, suitable for older children Compatible with other dogs: Yes Compatible with cats: Needs to be tested Neutered: Yes Veterinarian’s note: microchipped, vaccinated, dewormed, EU pet passport Mediterranean test: negative Remarks: APAP.PLASENCIA Current location: Spain Adoption fee: 600 Euros including transport Last update: July 2025 Forest was abandoned in the countryside and managed to make his way all the way to Plasencia. He wandered around the streets for a while until he was caught and taken to the animal shelter. He is a good-natured, lively dog who is very affectionate and loves being petted. Other dogs are no problem; cats would need to be tested first. He is also familiar with children, but they should already be older and stable. After all, Forest is strong and robust. He shows no hunting instincts and is not a barker. We would like him to find a home with a yard, in a rural setting, with a wonderful family who can teach him everything he needs for a happy dog life! Application at www.pfotenhilfe-sachsen.de

Name: Forest Rasse: Mastin Espanol Geschlecht: männlich Größe: ca. 65 cm Alter: 15.03.2024 Gewicht: ca. 34 kg Kinderfreundlich: Ja, größere verträglich mit Artgenossen: Ja verträglich mit Katzen: muss getestet werden Kastriert: ja Information des Tierarztes: gechipt, geimpft, entwurmt, EU-Pass Mittelmeertest: negativ Bemerkungen: APAP.PLASENCIA Derzeitiger Aufenthaltsort: Spanien Schutzgebühr: 600 Euro inkl. Transport letztes Update: Juli 2025 Forest wurde auf dem Land ausgesetzt und schaffte es bis nach Plasencia. Er irrte eine Weile durch die Straßen, bis er gefangen und ins Tierheim gebracht wurde. Er ist ein gutmütiger lebhafter Hund, sehr liebevoll und genießt die Streicheleinheiten. Andere Hunde sind kein Problem, Katzen müsste man noch testen. Auch mit Kindern ist er vertraut, aber sie sollten schon größer und standfest sein. Denn Forest ist stark und kräftig. Er zeigt keine Jagdambitionen und er ist kein Beller. Für ihn wünschen wir uns ein Haus mit Grundstück, Ländlich, in einer tollen Familie, die ihn alles beibringt, was Forest in seinem Hundeleben braucht! Bewerbung unter www.pfotenhilfe-sachsen.de

About Forest

What life with Forest looks like

Forest is a young adult 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.
