Jupp

German Shepherd · Male · Adult · 6 years

Jupp – unser Powerpaket mit Special Effects Jupp wurde aufgrund von Überforderung abgegeben. Er ist ein sehr misstrauischer Hund, wodurch in bestimmten Situationen die ein oder anderen „Special Effects“ auftreten können. Daher trägt er zunächst einen Maulkorb. Hat er einmal Vertrauen gefasst, ist Jupp ein regelrechter Clown und seinen Bezugspersonen treu ergeben. Dennoch sollte man seine „Special Effects“ nie aus den Augen verlieren. Er braucht klare Führung und einen Menschen, bei dem er die Verantwortung voll und ganz abgeben kann. Mit anderen Hunden zeigt er sich bisher verträglich, sollte aber nicht zu Kindern vermittelt werden. Jupp möchte am liebsten Einzelprinz sein und braucht klare Regeln. Dann zeigt er sich als super verschmuster, sportlicher, liebevoller und vor allem lernwilliger Hund. Er besucht aktuell eine Hundeschule, in der er große Fortschritte macht. Nach der

About Jupp

What life with Jupp looks like

Jupp is a large adult german shepherd dog waiting at Tierschutz Leverkusen e.V. in Leverkusen.

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 Jupp, answered.

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