Adopt Heikki, m, kastriert, geb. 01-2018

Mixed Breed · Male

Heikki - cute, or? Heikki is very friendly with people and loves to snuggle. He also now walks well on a leash. Unfortunately, he keeps quiet about his past—so we can only speculate. He also likes to start conversations with other dogs, especially males. In general, Heikki is not always happy when his behavior is commented on and he is given corrective guidance. Since Heikki generally thinks people are great, there's a good chance that he will become much more cooperative once he finds his "family." For Heikki, he needs people with dog experience who are willing to show him life, not be blinded by his cute appearance, and enjoy having a discussion with him. Heikki is not really suitable for households with small children or cats.

Der Heikki - niedlich, oder? Heikki ist sehr nett mit Menschen und kuschelt gerne. Auch an der Leine läuft er mittlerweile ganz gut. Leider hüllt er sich in Schweigen, was seine Vergangenheit angeht - so können wir nur spekulieren. Mit anderen Hunden, insbesondere Rüden, fängt er auch gerne mal ein Gespräch an. Überhaupt ist er nicht immer damit einverstanden, wenn man sein Verhalten kommentiert und erzieherisch eingreift. Da Heikki Menschen grundsätzlich super findet, stehen die Chancen gut, dass er - wenn er endlich "seine" Familie findet, deutlich kooperativer wird. Für Heikki braucht es also Menschen mit Hundeerfahrung, die bereit sind, ihm das Leben zu zeigen, sich von seinem süssen Aussehen nicht blenden lassen und Spass daran haben, ggf. auch mal eine Diskussion mit ihm zu führen. Für einen Haushalt mit kleineren Kindern oder Katzen ist Heikki eher nicht geeignet.

Frequently asked

Adopting Heikki, m, kastriert, geb. 01-2018, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Heikki, m, kastriert, geb. 01-2018?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. TiNO — Tiere in Not Odenwald handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Heikki, m, kastriert, geb. 01-2018 on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Heikki, m, kastriert, geb. 01-2018 if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — TiNO — Tiere in Not Odenwald 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 Heikki, m, kastriert, geb. 01-2018 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 Heikki, m, kastriert, geb. 01-2018 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 TiNO — Tiere in Not Odenwald early rather than rehoming privately; they know Heikki, m, kastriert, geb. 01-2018 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.
