Adopt Joshi

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 3 years

Status: open Name: Joshi Breed: mixed breed Gender: male/neutered Age: estimated by our vet at 3 years shoulder height/size: approximately 25-30 cm tall, around 10 kg Color: white Origin: transferred from a Romanian animal shelter compatible with: dogs Description: Joshi came from Romania and was allowed to move into one of our foster homes. It became clear quickly that the white terrier-mix from Romania had probably already had a home before. Joshi was no stray dog but seemed to be familiar with life in a house. The friendly male dog was immediately house-trained, allowed a harness, walks well on a leash, and sleeps relaxed during car rides. Why Joshi ended up in the Romanian animal shelter remains a mystery. His foster home is certainly delighted with him. The vet estimated the approximately three-year-old dog gets along well with female dogs. This is shown in the foster home, where there is a friendly first female dog. With other male dogs, he currently shows some macho behavior – which can be worked on with consistent leadership. Joshi is very cuddly and clingy. As soon as you sit on the sofa, he snuggles closely and enjoys every pat. Sometimes he tends to defend a resource, but clear leadership is also important here. Due to his terrier genes, dog-experienced people would be ideal for him. Children should already be in their teenage years.

Status: offen Name: Joshi Rasse: Mischling Geschlecht: männlich/ kastriert Alter: von unserem Tierarzt auf 3 Jahre geschätzt Schulterhöhe/Grösse: ca. 25-30 cm hoch, ca. 10 kg Farbe: weiß Abgabegrund: Übernahme von rumänischen Tierheim verträglich mit: Hunden Beschreibung: Joshi kam aus Rmänien und durfte in eine unserer Pflegestellen ziehen. Hier wurde schnell klar, dass der weiße Terrier-Mix aus Rumänien bestimmt schon mal ein Zuhause gehabt hat. Joshi war kein Straßenhund, sondern scheint das Leben im Haus zu kennen. Der nette Rüde war sofort stubenrein, ließ sich ein Geschirr anziehen, läuft gut an der Leine und schläft entspannt bei Autofahrten. Warum Joshi im rumänischen Tierheim landete, bleibt wohl sein Geheimnis. Seine Pflegestelle ist jedenfalls begeistert von ihm. Der von unserem Tierarzt auf etwa drei Jahre geschätzte Hund versteht sich sehr gut mit Hündinnen. Das zeigt er in der Pflegestelle, wo es eine freundliche Erst-Hündin gibt. Bei anderen Rüden zeigt er momentan noch etwas Macho-Verhalten – daran kann man mit konsequenter Führung arbeiten. Joshi ist sehr verschmust und anhänglich. Sobald man sich aufs Sofa setzt, kuschelt er sich eng an und genießt jede Streicheleinheit. Manchmal neigt er zum Verteidigen einer Ressource, aber mit auch hier ist klare Führung bei ihm wichtig. Wegen seiner Terrier-Gene wären hundeerfahrene Menschen ideal für ihn. Kinder sollten bereits im Teenageralter sein. Sollte Joshi Ihr Traumhund sein, bitten wir Sie, unsere Selbstauskunft auszufüllen und an die Hundeabteilung zu senden. Vielen Dank! Die Pflegestelle wird sich im Anschluss bei Ihnen melden. Vermittlungsanfragen ohne Selbstauskunft können aus Kapazitätsgründen nicht bearbeitet werden. Wir bitten um Verständnis. Wir vermitteln unsere Hunde möglichst im näheren Umfeld von Bad Honnef. (bis zu ca. 50 km Entfernung) Wunschzuhause: Hundeerfahrene Menschen, gerne Terrierfans, die Joshi souverän führen können. Kontakt:

About Joshi

What life with Joshi looks like

Joshi is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein 7 Gebirge e.V. — Orscheider Hof in Germany.

An 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. 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 Joshi, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Joshi?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutzverein 7 Gebirge e.V. — Orscheider Hof handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Joshi on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Joshi if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutzverein 7 Gebirge e.V. — Orscheider Hof 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 Joshi 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 Joshi 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 7 Gebirge e.V. — Orscheider Hof early rather than rehoming privately; they know Joshi 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.
