Jack

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 10 months

This is Jack. He was born on 4.11.2024 (10 months old). He is a male dog (not neutered). Training him has been very challenging. He is very playful and if he is left alone at home for long periods, he also likes to chew on things. It is important to me that he goes to good homes. I would be happy to receive a response… I can also come by briefly to meet him in person.

Das ist Jack er ist am 4.11.2024 geboren. ( 10 Monate alt) Er ist ein Rüde ( nicht kastriert) Uns fällt die Erziehung sehr schwer. Er ist sehr verspielt und wenn er lange alleine zuhause ist dann knabbert er auch gerne was an. Mir ist wichtig das er in gute Hände kommt. Über eine Antwort würde ich mich freuen… Ich kann auch kurz vorbei kommen um ihn persönlich vorzustellen. Wir wohnen in Bruchmühlen Mit freundlichen Gruß erreichbar täglich ab 14 Uhr

About Jack

What life with Jack looks like

Jack is a puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Melle in Melle.

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 Jack, answered.

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