HERMAN

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 10 months

Breed: HSH-mixed breed Project: Greece/Larissa Gender: male Age: born 09/2025 Size: growing Weight: ca. 7 kg (as of 01.11.2025) Other: friendly, playful, but rather calm, fearless, to be placed only in experienced hands Current location: Animal shelter in Greece/Larissa HERMAN's Story One morning, a cardboard box was discovered in front of the town hall in Tyrnavos – inside were four tiny puppies, just five days old: HERMAN, CHARLY, AMIDALA, and MINCO. The mayor was immediately informed and asked for our animal welfare colleagues' immediate assistance. One of our volunteer helpers took the little ones in without hesitation – and that began their battle for survival. For almost four weeks, the puppies had to be fed with a bottle every three hours. Through this loving, around-the-clock care, all four made it: they are healthy, lively, and full of joy. Now they are in the quarantine area of our animal shelter. HERMAN, one of the three small male dogs, is a handsome, friendly, and rather laid-back young dog who loves being stroked and held. Our vet estimates that he will reach about 30 kg in size. How HERMAN will develop – especially after moving into a new home – cannot be predicted with certainty. Animals grow, just like we humans, through the experiences they make. With loving, patient, and consistent guidance, however, HERMAN brings the best prerequisites to become a balanced and faithful companion. HERMAN is already microchipped, vaccinated, dewormed, and treated for endo- and ectoparasites according to his age. What breeds are in him, we cannot determine precisely. Given his origin, however, it is possible that the Greek German Shepherd is also part of him. Since these dogs often develop independent and robust personalities, we are looking for a home for HERMAN with HSH-experienced dog owners with a house and garden, in a rural location, where he can grow up safe and sound.

Rasse: HSH-Mischling Projekt: Griechenland/Larissa Geschlecht: männlich Alter: geb. 09/2025 Größe: groß werdend Gewicht: ca. 7 kg (Stand 01.11.2025) Sonstiges: freundlich, verspielt, aber eher ruhiger, furchtlos, nur in erfahrene Hände zu vermitteln Aktueller Aufenthaltsort: Tierauffangstation in Griechenland/Larissa HERMAN’s Geschichte Eines Morgens wurde vor dem Rathaus von Tyrnavos ein Karton entdeckt – darin vier winzige Welpen, gerade einmal fünf Tage alt: HERMAN, CHARLY, AMIDALA und MINCO. Der Bürgermeister wurde sofort informiert und bat umgehend unsere Tierschutzkolleginnen um Unterstützung. Eine unserer freiwilligen Helferinnen nahm die Kleinen ohne zu zögern bei sich auf – damit begann ihr Kampf ums Überleben. Fast vier Wochen lang mussten die Welpen im Drei-Stunden-Takt mit der Flasche gefüttert werden. Durch diese liebevolle Rund-um-die-Uhr-Betreuung haben es alle vier geschafft: Sie sind gesund, munter und voller Lebensfreude. Mittlerweile sind sie im Quarantänebereich unseres Tierheims untergebracht. HERMAN, einer der drei kleinen Rüden, ist ein hübscher, freundlicher und eher gelassener junger Hund, der es sehr genießt, gestreichelt und gehalten zu werden. Unser Tierarzt schätzt, dass er einmal etwa 30 kg erreichen wird. Wie sich HERMAN weiterentwickelt – insbesondere nach dem Einzug in ein neues Zuhause – lässt sich natürlich nicht sicher sagen. Tiere wachsen, genau wie wir Menschen, durch die Erfahrungen, die sie machen. Mit liebevoller, geduldiger und konsequenter Führung bringt HERMAN jedoch die besten Voraussetzungen mit, ein ausgeglichener und treuer Gefährte zu werden. HERMAN ist bereits gechipt, seinem Alter entsprechend geimpft, entwurmt sowie gegen Endo- und Ektoparasiten behandelt. Welche Rassen in ihm stecken, können wir nicht genau bestimmen. Aufgrund seiner Herkunft ist es jedoch möglich, dass auch der Griechische Schäferhund mit im Spiel ist. Da diese Hunde häufig selbstständige und robuste Persönlichkeiten entwickeln, suchen wir für HERMAN ein Zuhause bei HSH-erfahrenen Hundehaltern mit Haus und Garten, ländlich gelegen, wo er gut und sicher heranwachsen kann.

About HERMAN

What life with HERMAN looks like

HERMAN is a medium-sized puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Tierisch Grenzenlos e.V. in Bamberg.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇩🇪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 HERMAN, answered.

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