Greg

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

Greg is pure joie de vivre + Bremsen is cowardly - although he's just practicing that with Bremsen; on the one hand with his roommate Lumi, on the other hand also with us - we can already report first successes! 🙂 Greg is an enterprising type who is very happy about visits and greets every person expectantly - he will still gain a few centimeters but won't become a giant anymore.

DE·Show original

Seine Beschreibung aus Rumänien: Greg ist Lebensfreude pur + Bremsen ist feige – wobei er das mit dem Bremsen grad schön übt; zum Einen mit seiner Mitbewohnerin Lumi, zum Anderen auch mit uns – erste Erfolge können wir schon vermelden! 🙂 Greg ist ein unternehmungslustiger Typ, der sich sehr über Besuch freut + jedermensch erwartungsvoll begrüßt – er wird noch ein paar Zentimeter zulegen, aber kein Riese mehr werden

About Greg

What life with Greg looks like

Greg is a large young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Mayen in Mayen.

An young 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Greg, answered.

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