Adopt Horsti 16 Jahre

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Adult · 8 years

HORSTI When everything changes in an instant due to a stroke of fate! Urgently, a forever home is needed for both senior dogs, as the gentleman unfortunately had a great misfortune. Along with the loss, the sadness, and sudden loneliness, the daily challenges of responsibly caring for the dogs added to the burden, as there were a total of 5 dogs to take care of. The "TIERSCHUTZ" network has worked well together, they support us, strengthen us, and motivate us in this not-so-easy everyday life. So difficult animal welfare work can be, but so beautiful are these stories with a happy ending. A friend of the animal rescue organization / rescuer Grauschnuten asked us, and so two dogs actually found a wonderful home with us. A challenge of the like sought, as these were older dogs that did not meet the "beauty ideal" for many. We find all the dogs cute, the rambunctious 12 and 14-year-old HUNDE-OLDIES now enrich our residence, and of course, both would also be happy with a dog sponsorship. 23.

HORSTI Wenn sich von heute auf morgen alles durch ein Schicksalschlag ändert ! Dringend wurden für beide Hundesenioren ein FÜR IMMER ZUHAUSE gesucht, da das Herrchen leider einen großen Schicksalschlag hatte . Zum Verlust, der Trauer und plötzlichen Einsamkeit kamen die alltäglichen Probleme hinsichtlich der verantwortungsvollen Versorgung der Hunde dazu, da man nämlich insgesamt 5 Hunde zu versorgen hatte. Das Netzwerk „TIERSCHUTZ“ hat hier gut zusammen funktioniert, das baut uns auf, stärkt uns und ja motiviert im nicht einfachen Alltag. So schlimm die Tierschutzarbeit oftmals sein kann, so schön sind dann genau diese Geschichten, mit einem glücklichen Ausgang. Eine befreundete Tierschutzorganisation / Tierschützerin Grauschnuten hatte bei uns angefragt und so konnten tatsächlich zwei Hunde ein tolles zuhause bei uns finden. Eine Herausforderung das seinesgleichen suchte, da es sich um ältere Hunde handelte, die obendrauf nicht dem „Schönheitsideal“ für viele entsprechen. Wir finden alle Hunde süß, die rüstigen 12 und 14 jährigen HUNDE-OLDIES bereichern nun unsere Residenz und selbstverständlich würden sich beide auch über eine Hundepatenschaft freuen. 23.

About Horsti 16 Jahre

What life with Horsti 16 Jahre looks like

Horsti 16 Jahre is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Lucky Dog Hostel in Osterholz Scharmbeck.

An 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 Horsti 16 Jahre, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Horsti 16 Jahre?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Lucky Dog Hostel handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Horsti 16 Jahre on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Horsti 16 Jahre if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Lucky Dog Hostel 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 Horsti 16 Jahre 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 Horsti 16 Jahre 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 Lucky Dog Hostel early rather than rehoming privately; they know Horsti 16 Jahre 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.
