Adopt Foxi

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

The little Foxi was likely abandoned. He was wandering on the street in our area in Romania and barked at people in front of their houses. He sought attention and acknowledgment. This caused complaints among the residents. The animal shelter in our shelter was asked to take him in. Foxi has been living since February 2025 at the "Open animal shelter" and is already ready for travel. The ITV Grenzenlos wants to help him find a family in Germany. The small Terrier is a friendly and open male dog. He is lively and adventurous according to his age. He is clever, attentive, and curious. Foxi behaves well at the animal shelter and causes no problems. He would be an ideal family dog. He walks nicely on the leash and enjoys going for walks. He needs mental stimulation and exercise. He wants to learn a lot, is curious and eager to learn. He gets along well with the other dogs. Therefore, he suits every household. Mainly, as long as their family keeps him forever! Foxi was born in August 2021 and is 43 cm tall. He has the characteristics of a Foxterrier. He has been at the animal shelter since February 2025. He is now microchipped, vaccinated, neutered, and treated against parasites. Before his travel arrangements, he will receive a blood test for heartworms. Then he will be well prepared.

Der kleine Foxi wurde wahrscheinlich ausgesetzt. Er streunerte auf der Straße in Tautelec in Rumänien und bellte Menschen vor ihren Häusern an. Er suchte Aufmerksamkeit und Beachtung. Darüber haben die Leute sich beschwert. Das Tierheim in Sisterea wurde gebeten, den Hund aufzunehmen. Foxi lebt nun seit Februar 2025 im „Offenen Tierheim“ und ist bereits reisefertig.

About Foxi

What life with Foxi looks like

Foxi is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at ITV Grenzenlos e.V. in Essel.

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 Foxi, answered.

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