How do I contact the shelter about Harvey?

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

Can I adopt Harvey if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierhilfe Korfu 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 Harvey 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 Harvey 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 Korfu e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Harvey 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.

Harvey

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 6 years

Harvey had a tough start in life. Originally from the mainland, he was bred to be a hunting dog for a hunter. He has already changed owners three times in his life. Most recently, he lived on Corfu with a family. Unfortunately, not all members of the family were friendly towards him. When the man of the family (Harvey's reference person) was at work during the day, Harvey would run after him for miles on the streets. A friend of the family became aware of the situation and rescued Harvey from his difficult situation. We are happy to know he is now safe and wish him a home where he can finally arrive and feel comfortable. Harvey is estimated to be x years old, measures approximately x cm and weighs currently x kg. All dogs have been first vaccinated, chipped and have an EU pet passport. 20260708 01 Harvey July 2026

I-Nr.: r-korfu-harvey-m-0726 Juli 2026: Harvey hatte bisher kein einfaches Leben. Ursprünglich stammt er vom Festland, wo er einem Jäger als Jagdhund dienen musste. In seinem Leben wechselte er bereits mehrmals die "Besitzer". Zuletzt hat er auf Korfu bei einer Familie gelebt. Leider waren ihm hier nicht alle Familienmitglieder wohlgesonnen. Wenn der Mann der Familie (Harveys Bezugsperson) tagsüber auf der Arbeit war, rannte Harvey ihm kilometerweit auf den Straßen hinterher. Eine Tierfreundin wurde auf die Situation aufmerksam und hat Harvey aus seiner misslichen Lage befreit. Wir sind froh, ihn jetzt in Sicherheit zu wissen und wünschen ihm ein Zuhause, in dem er endlich ankommen und sich wohlfühlen darf.Harvey ist geschätzt ca. 6 Jahre alt, misst etwa 50-52cm und wiegt aktuell 24kg. Er kennt es an der Leine zu laufen und ist sehr freundlich zum Menschen. Alle Hunde sind erstgeimpft, gechipt und haben einen EU-Heimtierausweis. 20260708 10 Harvey Juli 2026 20260708 09 Harvey Juli 2026 20260708 08 Harvey Juli 2026 20260708 07 Harvey Juli 2026 20260708 06 Harvey Juli 2026

About Harvey

What life with Harvey looks like

Harvey is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierhilfe Korfu e.V. in Ratingen.

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.
