Adopt Jacky

Jack Russell Terrier · Male · Senior · 9 years

Jacky Tier-ID: 1003 At the animal shelter since 28.11.2021 (Current Interested Parties: 0) The knee-high mixed-breed male dog Jacky is friendly but knows exactly what he wants and tries to get his way. He needs people who can clearly define his boundaries, or else he tends to defend resources and "act like the boss." His trusted people should have dog experience and a confident and calm leadership style to guide Jacky in the right direction. He wants to please, but sometimes he tends to make his own decisions—likely because he was never clearly shown what wasn't his responsibility. He gets along well with other animals by nature. He has not met any cats or small animals. Driving and being left alone for hours should be okay.

Jacky Tier-ID: 1003 Im Tierheim seit 28.11.2021 (Aktuelle Interessenten: 0) Der kniehohe Mischlingsrüde Jacky ist freundlich, weiß aber genau, was er will und versucht das auch durchzusetzen. Er braucht Menschen, die ihm ganz klar seine Grenzen aufzeigen, sonst neigt er dazu, Ressourcen zu verteidigen und "einen auf "Chef" zu machen". Seine Bezugspersonen sollten über Hundeerfahrung und einen souveränen und ruhigen Führungsstil verfügen und Jacky in die richtigen Bahnen leiten. Er möchte gefallen, aber manchmal neigt er halt dazu, eigene Entscheidungen zu treffen - vermutlich, weil ihm früher nie klar signalisiert wurde, was nicht seine Aufgaben sind. Mit Artgenossen ist er nach Sympathie verträglich. Katzen und Kleintiere kennt er nicht. Autofahren und stundenweises Alleinbleiben sollen ok sein. Zurück

About Jacky

What life with Jacky looks like

Jacky is a senior jack russell terrier dog waiting at Tierschutzverein Lippstadt und Umgebung e.V. in Germany.

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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Jacky, answered.

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