How do I contact the shelter about Gerry *20?

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 Gerry *20 on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Gerry *20 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 Gerry *20 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 Gerry *20 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 Gerry *20 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.

Gerry *20

Mixed Breed · Female

Gerry is a male mixed-breed dog from Romania, approximately 50 cm tall and born around 2023/2024. He has black and brown fur and is currently about 1 year old. Gerry has had a difficult past and is very shy and fearful of people. When he feels uncertain, he flees and cannot be touched at the moment. He needs to learn patience, empathy, and trust slowly. Despite his fears, Gerry gets along well with other dogs. We are looking for a quiet home where he can finally arrive and have the chance to experience that people mean well by him. With love, understanding, and time, he can learn to trust and gradually open up his heart. Contact: Our dogs are vaccinated (rabies and 2x basic immunization), microchipped, and equipped with an EU pet passport. We cover the costs of testing for common Mediterranean diseases: babesiosis, ehrlichiosis, leishmaniasis, rickettsia, filariae, hepatozoonosis, anaplasmosis against a deposit fee with a contract. Important documents: Self-disclosure for adopters Self-disclosure for foster homes *The information on the dogs (especially those still in Romania) is without guarantee. The recordings only represent snapshots. The dogs were recorded by voluntary honorary members to the best of their knowledge and belief. Therefore, there may be deviations in age, size, gender, health, and behavior. We are an active alliance partner!

Herkunftsland: Rumänien Rasse: Mischling Geschlecht: männlich, kastriert Farbe: schwarz-braun Schulterhöhe: ca. 50 cmGeburtsdatum: ca. 2023/2024Standort: Rumänien Der liebe Rüde Gerry hat es bisher nicht leicht gehabt. Er ist sehr scheu und hat große Angst vor Menschen. Bei Unsicherheit flüchtet er und lässt sich derzeit nicht anfassen. Nähe und Vertrauen muss er erst langsam lernen. Trotz seiner Ängste ist Gerry ein verträglicher Hund, der mit anderen Hunden gut zurechtkommt. Er braucht Menschen mit Geduld, Einfühlungsvermögen und ohne Erwartungen, die ihm die Zeit geben, die er benötigt. Für Gerry wünschen wir uns ein ruhiges Zuhause, in dem er endlich ankommen darf und die Chance bekommt zu erfahren, dass Menschen es gut mit ihm meinen. Mit Liebe, Verständnis und Zeit kann er lernen, Vertrauen zu fassen und Schritt für Schritt sein Herz zu öffnen. Kontakt: Unsere Hunde sind geimpft (Tollwut und 2x Grundimmunisierung) sind gechippt und mit dem EU-Heimtierausweis ausgestattet werden auf unsere Kosten (wir übernehmen die Labor-Gebühren) auf die gängigen Mittelmeerkrankheiten getestet: Babesiose, Ehrlichiose, Leishmaniose, Rickettsien, Filarien, Hepatozoonose, Anaplasmose werden nur nach positiver Vorkontrolle (Hausbesuch) gegen eine Schutzgebühr mit Schutzvertrag vermittelt.

About Gerry *20

What life with Gerry *20 looks like

Gerry *20 is a large 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. 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.
