Graf Bobby

Mixed Breed · Male

Graf Bobby is a dream on four paws. Although he has not been treated very "tenderly" in his life, his loyal dog soul has no wounds. On the contrary - he loves his humans and wants to please them. The foster family has unconditionally taken their boy into their hearts in the shortest time. The good dog is an extremely pleasant roommate. Quiet, low-maintenance, almost invisible... he also masters being alone bravely. He gets along with everyone and everything, even the poultry at the foster home likes him. In the clucking group he stands like a rock in the storm. After our sweetie walks beautifully on the leash, moderate walks with him become a pleasure. One can take the lovable count anywhere, but new things are initially observed somewhat carefully. Likewise, the male gender, which must earn his trust quickly. Graf Bobby deserves a place with loving, comfortable people who appreciate his fantastic character. The new dog bed should be located in a rural area. Children would need to be older and stable, as our Bobby is somewhat overwhelmed by too wild behavior and sports activities.

DE·Show original

Graf Bobby ist ein Traum auf vier Pfoten. Obwohl er in seinem Leben bisher nicht gerade “zärtlich” behandelt wurde, hat seine treue Hundeseele keine Wunden. Ganz im Gegenteil – er liebt seine Menschen und möchte ihnen gefallen. Die Pflegefamilie hat ihren Buben nach kürzester Zeit bedingungslos ins Herz geschlossen. Der brave Hundemann ist ein äußerst angenehmer Mitbewohner. Ruhig, pflegeleicht, fast unsichtbar… auch das Alleinbleiben meistert er bravourös. Er ist mit jedem und allem umgänglich, selbst das Federvieh bei der Pflegestelle mag er. In der gackernden Schar steht er wie ein Fels in der Brandung. Nachdem unser Süßer wunderbar an der Leine läuft, werden moderate Spaziergänge mit ihm zum Vergnügen. Man kann den liebenswerten Grafen überall mit hinnehmen, allerdings werden neue Dinge erst mal etwas vorsichtig beobachtet. Ebenso das männliche Geschlecht, das muss sich kurz sein Vertrauen erarbeiten. Graf Bobby hat einen Platz bei liebevollen, gemütlichen Menschen verdient, die sein fantastisches Wesen schätzen. Das neue Körbchen sollte in einer ländlichen Gegend stehen. Kinder müssten schon größer und gefestigt sein, da unseren Bobby allzu wildes Treiben und sportliche Aktivitäten etwas überfordern.

About Graf Bobby

What life with Graf Bobby looks like

Graf Bobby is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierhilfe Franken e.V. in Lauf.

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 Graf Bobby, answered.

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