Adopt Joker K

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 9 years

Profile Age: born around August 2021 Gender: male Neutered: yes Personality: friendly Size: approximately 46 cm At the shelter since: February 2022 Hello dear humans, I am Joker and I urgently need someone to secure me a place on the next transport! I am here with so many others and it will surely be very difficult to find a place for all of us. But especially for us puppy kids, it is so important that we get out of here as quickly as possible and experience life as it should be. We are still at an age where we can mostly adapt to all the unfamiliar things quite quickly. But if we grow up in the shelter without ever having had the chance to see and learn about your world, we are usually completely overwhelmed when we arrive at your place and all these new stimuli hit us. Of course, I might also be overwhelmed after such a long journey, you have to understand that. After all, I don't know that everything will be better from then on. Maybe I will need some time to settle in and build trust with you. But as a young, curious dog, I am sure to come out of my shell quickly and develop into a cheerful and playful companion, full of mischief and ready to wrap you around my little finger. I wish for a home where I can experience safety and security, warmth, and human affection. Perhaps I will have luck and won't have to wait much longer here until I can finally travel to you! If you are interested in Joker, please fill out our interest form or send us an email or a message via Facebook. Joker is ready to travel and can join the next transport to Germany. Our dogs travel legally with Traces. Traces refers to the database system used to monitor all animal traffic within the EU. The dogs travel neutered (if old enough), vaccinated, microchipped, and dewormed, and they possess an EU passport. Additionally, for dogs 12 months and older, a rapid test for the following Mediterranean diseases is conducted before travel arrangements: Lyme disease, Anaplasmosis, Ehrlichiosis, Dirofilariasis, and Leishmaniasis. Elena K. and Karsten H. have taken on sponsorship for Joker, ensuring a filled bowl. Thank you very much on behalf of the dogs!

Steckbrief Alter: ca. August 2021 geboren Geschlecht: männlich Kastriert: ja Charakter: freundlich Größe: ca. 46 cm Im Shelter seit: Februar 2022 Hallo ihr lieben Menschen, ich bin Joker und ich suche ganz dringend jemanden, der mir einen Platz auf dem nächsten Transport sichert! Ich bin hier mit so vielen anderen und es wird bestimmt sehr schwer, uns alle irgendwo unterzubekommen. Doch gerade für uns Hundekinder ist es doch so wichtig, dass wir schnellstmöglich hier heraus kommen und das Leben kennenlernen, wie es eigentlich sein sollte. Noch sind wir in einem Alter, in dem wir uns meist recht schnell an all das Fremde gewöhnen können. Doch wenn wir erst einmal im Shelter erwachsen werden, nie die Chance hatten, was von eurer Welt zu sehen und kennenzulernen, dann sind wir meist völlig überfordert, wenn wir bei euch ankommen und all die neuen Reize auf uns einprasseln. Natürlich kann ich nach so einer langen Reise auch erstmal überfordert sein, das müsst ihr mir nachsehen. Ich weiß ja schließlich nicht, dass von da an alles besser wird. Vielleicht brauche ich etwas Zeit, um mich einzugewöhnen und Vertrauen zu euch aufzubauen. Doch als junger, neugieriger Hund komme ich sicher schnell aus mir heraus und werde mich im Nu zu einem fröhlichen und verspielten Partner entwickeln, Unfug im Kopf haben und euch um den kleinen Finger wickeln. Ich wünsche mir ein Zuhause, in dem ich Sicherheit und Geborgenheit, Wärme und menschliche Zuneigung erfahren darf. Vielleicht habe ich ja Glück und muss nicht mehr lange hier ausharren, bis ich endlich zu dir reisen darf! Wenn Sie Interesse an Joker haben, füllen Sie bitte unseren Interessentenbogen aus oder schreiben Sie uns eine E-Mail an oder eine Nachricht über Facebook. Joker ist ausreisefertig und kann mit dem nächsten Transport nach Deutschland reisen. Unsere Hunde reisen legal mit Traces. Als Traces bezeichnet man das Datenbanksystem, mit dem der gesamte Tierverkehr innerhalb der EU überwacht wird. Die Hunde reisen kastriert (insofern alt genug), geimpft, gechipt und entwurmt aus und besitzen einen EU-Pass. Des Weiteren wird bei Hunden ab 12 Monaten vor der Ausreise ein Schnelltest auf folgende Mittelmeerkrankheiten durchgeführt: Borreliose, Anaplasmose, Ehrlichiose, Dirofilariose und Leishmaniose. Elena K. und Karsten H. haben die Patenschaft für Joker übernommen und sorgen somit für ein gefülltes Näpfchen. Vielen Dank im Namen der Hunde!

About Joker K

What life with Joker K looks like

Joker K is a medium-sized senior mixed breed dog waiting at Seelen für Seelchen e.V. in Alfter.

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 Joker K, answered.

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