How do I contact the shelter about Gilbert und Eberhardt?

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

Can I adopt Gilbert und Eberhardt if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Starnberg 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 Gilbert und Eberhardt 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 Gilbert und Eberhardt 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 Tierheim Starnberg early rather than rehoming privately; they know Gilbert und Eberhardt and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.

Gilbert und Eberhardt

Mixed Breed · Male

Gilbert (yellow-black) and Eberhardt (black-white) are two rather shy young roosters. The two came to us as an animal shelter case in the chick stage. Incubated and kept in a shower with 15 other Swedish flower chickens, they were supposed to be sold from there. In the animal shelter, they were able to recover, feel natural ground under their feet, and grow into truly beautiful, self-assured roosters. While their sisters gradually moved into their dream homes, the brothers had to wait and drink tea (more like picking mealworms😉). But now it's slowly time for the two boys to move into a proper home of their own. Although they are shy, their curiosity is becoming more and more evident. People still observe the two with some suspicion, preferring to look at them from a distance. Despite this, they are friendly with us. Gilbert und Eberhardt and her caretakers and caretakers are looking forward to every person who wants to give the two a Forever Home.

Gilbert (gelb-schwarz) und Eberhardt (schwarz-weiß) sind zwei eher schüchterne junge Männer. Die beiden kamen im Kükenalter als Tierschutzfall zu uns ins Tierheim. Mit 15 anderen schwedischen Blumenhühnern wurden sie in einer Dusche ausgebrütet, gehalten und sollten von dort aus verkauft werden. Im Tierheim durften sie sich erholen, natürlichen Boden unter den Füßen spüren und zu richtig schönen selbstbewussten Hähnen heranwachsen. Während ihre Schwestern nach und nach in ihre Traumzuhause ausziehen durften, mussten die Brüder weiter abwarten und Tee trinken (wohl eher Mehlwürmer picken😉). Jetzt wird es aber langsam Zeit für die beiden Jungs in ein richtiges eigenes Zuhause zu ziehen. Sie sind zwar schüchtern, lassen ihre Neugier aber immer mehr durchscheinen und gewinnen. Menschen werden von den beiden dennoch mit etwas Argwohn und lieber aus der Entfernung betrachtet. Freundlich zeigen sie sich bei uns trotzdem. Gilbert und Eberhardt und ihre Pflegerinnen und Pfleger freuen sich über jede Person, die den beiden ein Für-Immer-Zuhause schenken möchte. Video 1 Video 2 Video 3
