Jonny

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 8 years

A male mixed breed dog, approximately 8 years old, was rescued from an animal hoarding case in Iasi, Romania, in August 2026, along with many other dogs. Over 300 dogs lived on a property under terrible conditions, many of them chained. Jonny lived on a chain and has experienced a lot of suffering in his life. It was touching to see him in the animal shelter, where he showed his friendly and affectionate side. As soon as Jonny sees people, he is happy and enjoys every attention and petting. He is expected to come to Heilbronn on September 26, 2026. Patient people are needed for Jonny, who can provide him with the necessary security and give him time to get to know his new life. A detailed description will follow soon.

Rasse: Mischling Geschlecht: männlich Geburtsdatum: 08/2018 Größe: ca. 62 cmDer 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. Jonny hat an der Kette gelebt und musste in seinem bisherigen Leben viel Leid erfahren. Umso berührender war es, ihn im Tierheim von seiner freundlichen und anhänglichen Seite kennenzulernen. Sobald Jonny Menschen sieht, freut er sich und genießt jede Aufmerksamkeit und Streicheleinheit. Am 26.09.2026 kommt er voraussichtlich zu uns nach Heilbronn. Für Jonny werden geduldigen Menschen gesucht, die ihm die nötige Sicherheit vermitteln und Zeit geben, um sein neues Leben kennenzulernen. Eine ausführliche Beschreibung folgt in Kürze.

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. 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 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
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.
