Jonny

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 8 years

Rasse: Mischling Geschlecht: männlich Geburtsdatum: 08/2018 Größe: ca. 62 cm Gewicht: ca. 27 kgDer etwa 8 Jahre alte Rüde wurde gemeinsam mit vielen weiteren Hunden im August 2026 aus einem Animal-Hoarding-Fall in Iasi in Rumänien gerettet. Dort lebten insgesamt über 300 Hunde unter fürchterlichen Bedingungen auf einem Grundstück, viele davon an der Kette. Auch Jonny hat an der Kette gelebt und hat in seinem bisherigen vermutlich nur wenig kennenlernen dürfen. Bei den Tierschützern zeigte er eine freundliche und anhänglichen Seite. Er freut sich über menschliche Zuwendung und genießt jede Aufmerksamkeit und Streicheleinheit. Am 26.09.2026 kam er zu uns nach Heilbronn. Inzwischen durfte Jonny bereits erste Erfahrungen in einem Zuhause machen. Er ist stubenrein und kann auch halbtags alleine bleiben. Mit Leckerlis lässt er sich gut motivieren und trainieren. Auch Bürsten und tierärztliche Untersuchungen meistert er gut. An der Leine läuft er gut mit und interessiert sich wenig für Reize wie Radfahrer oder Autos. Die Dämmerung sowie Schatten und Spiegelungen verunsichern ihn noch. Im häuslichen Umfeld wurde deutlich, dass Futter und auch die Küche für Jonny einen hohen Stellenwert hat. Dort hat er bei Annäherung zweimal ein Familienmitglied in den Fuß geschnappt. Für Jonny werden hundeerfahrene Menschen gesucht, die ihm Sicherheit und Orientierung geben, mögliche Konfliktsituationen frühzeitig erkennen und ihn dabei unterstützen, die fehlenden Erfahrungen im Zusammenleben mit Menschen nachzuholen.

About Jonny

What life with Jonny looks like

Jonny is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein Heilbronn in Heilbronn.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 Jonny, answered.

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