How do I contact the shelter about Hermes?

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

Can I adopt Hermes if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Ein Freund fürs Leben 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 Hermes 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 Hermes 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 Ein Freund fürs Leben e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Hermes 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.

Hermes

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 10 years

A male Podenco Andaluz, approximately 9/2016 birth, lovable, active, social. Hermes is a male Podenco Andaluz born around September 2016, with a shoulder height of approximately 50 cm. Hermes was discovered and secured in a rural area, alone and abandoned, in late August 2026. He was likely abandoned and left to fend for himself. Since then, Hermes has been waiting in the refuge for a loving, suitable home and a cozy warm dog bed. The cute and lovable male is now seeking his final happiness, dedicated people who have plenty of time for him and integrate him actively into their daily lives, where Hermes finally experiences security, love, and care. Hermes is compatible with both male and female dogs. He would be happy to be matched with other social, confident dogs, preferably of similar age and size. A loving home is sought for Hermes, with active people who have plenty of time for him, as well as a desire and joy in activities with him. A quiet rural home and environment would be ideal for him. Cats and/or small animals should not be present in his future home. Hermes is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and tested for Mediterranean diseases. He is located in a refuge in Andalusia/Spain. The adoption fee for Hermes is 580 euros. Would you like to give Hermes a home? Please contact us using the following contact form. ©2022 by Ein Freund fürs Leben e.V. Created with Wix.com

About Hermes

What life with Hermes looks like

Hermes is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at Ein Freund fürs Leben e.V. in Berlin.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇩🇪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.
