Jack Sparrow

Male · Adult · 7 years

Hello, I am Jack Sparrow 🥰 My master could no longer take care of me, that's why I came to the animal shelter 😔 I've heard it might be hard to find a new home for me 😢 Unfortunately, I haven't learned much yet and German Deutscher Jagdterrier might not be a dog for everyone. I need physical and mental stimulation 🏃‍♂️💡 I don't like other dogs and there shouldn't be cats or small animals in my new home 🙈 Children, unfortunately, also not. In short, I need an absolute solo prince place 👑 I don't share my food and can be quite unpleasant about it 🫣 But the staff here also say I can be really cute and I am a very loyal dog. I have long mourned for my master 🥺 Maybe there are some other Terrier friends out there and you want to get to know me? 🍀 Then write a letter and come by. I'm not giving up hope and I'm waiting here, Yours Jack ❤️ (This description of me are just snapshots from shelter life. I can develop very differently in my new home.) Breed:Deutscher Jagdterrier. Born on:18.11.2019. Color:brown. Gender:Male. In the animal shelter since:23.12.2025Reason for surrender:Abandonment. Adoption status:adoptable neutered/Unkastriert:UnkastriertDog training recommended:YesNeeds physical and mental stimulation:YesHas prey drive:YesLikes to be alone max.:No. Compatible with:NoEmergency:NoAdopted:. This animal is not yet neutered/spayed.

Huhu, ich bin Jack Sparrow 🥰 Mein Herrchen konnte sich nicht mehr um mich kümmern, deswegen bin ich hier ins Tierheim gekommen 😔 Ich habe schon gehört, dass es wohl schwer wird ein neues Zuhause für mich zu finden 😢 Leider habe ich bis jetzt nicht viel gelernt und Jagdterrier sind wohl auch kein Hund für Jedermann. Ich brauche körperliche und geistige Auslastung🏃‍♂️💡 Andere Hunde mag ich nicht und Katzen und Kleintiere sollten in meinem neuen Zuhause auch nicht wohnen 🙈 Kinder leider auch nicht. Kurz gesagt, ich brauche einen absoluten Einzelprinzen Platz 👑 Mein Essen teile ich nicht und werde da auch unangenehm 🫣 Nun soll ich aber auch noch mal was positives sagen, meinen die Mitarbeiter hier 😅 Ich kann auch echt süß sein und bin ein sehr treuer Hund. Meinem Herrchen habe ich sehr lange nachgeweint 🥺 Vielleicht gibts ja irgendwo Terrier Freunde und ihr wollt mich mal kennenlernen? 🍀 Dann schreibt eine Mail und kommt mal vorbei Die Hoffnung nicht aufgebend warte ich hier, Euer Jack ❤️ (Die Beschreibung von mir sind nur Momentaufnahmen aus dem Tierheimalltag. Ich kann mich im neuen Zuhause auch ganz anders entwickeln.) Tierart:Hund. Rasse:Deutscher Jagdterrier. Geboren am:18.11.2019. Farbe:braun.

About Jack Sparrow

What life with Jack Sparrow looks like

Jack Sparrow is a adult dog waiting at Tierheim Wetzlar in Wetzlar.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. 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 Jack Sparrow, answered.

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