Jeffry

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

Jeffry is a 12-month-old male (*05/2025) currently living in Romania. He was abandoned with his brothers in a box at one of our feeding stations. Despite this difficult start in life, Jeffry has retained his cheerful nature. The young dog is extremely social, playful, curious, and people-oriented. He loves attention and approaches other dogs openly and friendly. A cat test is also possible on request. Since Jeffry is still very young, he naturally needs to learn the dog alphabet. With loving consistency, patience, and enough time, he will definitely develop into a wonderful companion. Currently, Jeffry weighs about 6.5 kg with a shoulder height of around 35 cm. The veterinarian estimates that he will reach a medium size when fully grown. Jeffry is now looking for a warm home with people who want to give him security, love, and the chance at a happy dog life.

Jeffry ist ein 12 Monate alter Rüde (*05/2025) und lebt derzeit noch in Rumänien. Gemeinsam mit seinen Brüdern wurde er in einem Karton an einer unserer Futterstellen ausgesetzt. Trotz dieses schweren Starts ins Leben hat Jeffry sein fröhliches Wesen bewahrt. Der junge Hund ist ausgesprochen sozial, verspielt, neugierig und menschenbezogen. Er liebt Aufmerksamkeit und begegnet anderen Hunden offen und freundlich. Auch ein Katzentest ist auf Anfrage möglich. Da Jeffry noch sehr jung ist, muss er das Hunde-ABC natürlich noch lernen. Mit liebevoller Konsequenz, Geduld und genügend Zeit wird er sich aber bestimmt zu einem wunderbaren Begleiter entwickeln. Aktuell wiegt Jeffry etwa 6,5 kg bei einer Schulterhöhe von rund 35 cm. Der Tierarzt schätzt, dass er ausgewachsen eine mittlere Größe erreichen wird. Jeffry sucht nun ein warmes Zuhause bei Menschen, die ihm Sicherheit, Liebe und die Chance auf ein glückliches Hundeleben schenken möchten.

About Jeffry

What life with Jeffry looks like

Jeffry is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Meuselwitzer Tierschutzinitiative in Germany.

A young 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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Jeffry, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Jeffry?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Meuselwitzer Tierschutzinitiative handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Jeffry on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Jeffry if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Meuselwitzer Tierschutzinitiative 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Jeffry 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 Jeffry 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 Meuselwitzer Tierschutzinitiative early rather than rehoming privately; they know Jeffry 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.
