How do I contact the shelter about Joshua?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Ein Herz für Streuner e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Joshua on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Joshua if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Ein Herz für Streuner 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 Joshua 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 Joshua 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 Ein Herz für Streuner e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Joshua and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.

Joshua

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 7 years

adoption requirements adoption process Now request this animal! adoption requirements adoption process Now request this dog! The wonderful Joshua could travel to his foster home in Nördlingen and is now searching for his home from there. Originally coming from Bistrita, Romania, Joshua arrived a bit shy and cautious but has since developed very well and can also be quite a chatterbox. Joshua is approximately 7 years old and has a medium size. With his fur pattern and the cute spots on his nose, Joshua simply looks loveable. He has quickly adapted to life in the house and now loves to lie in his soft bed, cuddle, or take a little nap. He also enjoys quiet cuddles and cuddling or the fur care with a soft brush. Joshua also enjoys lying in the garden and observing the world around him. Generally, Joshua is more reserved and still a bit shy, but still friendly. He does not like to be too wild or loud. Therefore, no small children should live in his new home. Older children should know about responsible and respectful dog handling. Joshua wants to be treated with calm and patience. Under pressure, he reacts more defensively, preferring to set his own pace. Joshua gets along well with his fellow animals.

Vermittlungsvoraussetzungen Vermittlungsablauf Jetzt dieses Tier anfragen! Vermittlungsvoraussetzungen Vermittlungsablauf Jetzt diesen Hund anfragen! Der wunderschöne Joshua konnte in seine Pflegestelle in Nördlingen reisen und sucht von dort aus nun sein Zuhause. Ursprünglich kommt Joshua aus Bistrita, Rumänien. Anfangs etwas eingeschüchtert und vorsichtig, hat Joshua sich inzwischen sehr gut entwickelt und kann auch mal ein richtiger Quatschkopf sein. Joshua ist ca. 7 Jahre alt und hat eine mittlere Größe. Mit seiner Fellzeichnung und den süßen Punkten auf der Nase sieht Joshua einfach nur zum Verlieben aus. An das Leben im Haus hat er sich schnell gewöhnt und liebt es inzwischen im weichen Bettchen zu liegen und zu kuscheln oder ein kleines Nickerchen einzulegen. Auch ruhige Kuschel- und Streicheleinheiten liebt er sehr oder die Fellpflege mit einer weichen Bürste. Joshua genießt es auch, im Garten zu liegen und die Welt um sich herum zu beobachten. Generell ist Joshua eher zurückhaltend und noch etwas schüchtern, aber trotzdem freundlich. Er mag es eben nicht zu wild oder laut. Daher sollten auch keine kleinen Kinder in seinem neuen Zuhause wohnen. Ältere Kinder sollten den verantwortungs- und respektvollen Umgang mit Hunden kennen. Joshua möchte mit Ruhe und Geduld behandelt werden. Auf Druck reagiert er eher abwehrend, er möchte das Tempo gerne selbst bestimmen. Mit seinen Artgenossen versteht Joshua sich gut. Ein souveräner Ersthund würde ihm sicherlich die Eingewöhnung im neuen Zuhause erleichtern, ist aber keine Voraussetzung für eine

About Joshua

What life with Joshua looks like

Joshua is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Ein Herz für Streuner e.V. in München.

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.
