Adoption requirements Adoption process Request this animal now! Adoption requirements Adoption process Request this dog now! Anyone who sees Kodi immediately thinks of a small bear. With his thick, dark coat in the most beautiful brown tones with white color accents, about 50 cm tall and weighing 20 kg, this male dog is a real eye-catcher. But behind the bear-like appearance lies an insecure dog who still needs to learn how nice life can be by the side of people. Kodis story began with a lonely find in a park in Cluj-Napoca. Without a microchip and without an owner looking for him, he faced an uncertain future. Fortunately, the path to a large urban animal shelter was avoided, so he is now looking for his final home from Bologa. Based on his type, Kodis appearance suggests that his ancestors may have genes from a German Shepherd, possibly even a herding dog - but this is pure speculation. It is certain that he is probably in the last stages of adolescence at about 1.5-2 years old and has a good amount of curiosity, but also a lot of caution. Life inside a house with all its everyday noises is probably completely foreign to him. Towards people, Kodi is currently still reserved. He must first understand that a patting hand means nothing bad and affection is something positive. However, his playful side is already clearly visible in his interactions with other dogs. He easily shares his space in the kennel with a female dog and shows himself very social when interacting with other animals. A confident only dog in the new home could therefore be a valuable orientation for him. Visiting a dog training classes or individual training with experienced dog trainers could also be a valuable support. But first, he needs time to settle in. People experienced with dogs, patient and empathetic, who give Kodi the necessary time to build trust, are being sought. Since he is still at the beginning of his education, a quiet environment - ideally located in the countryside and with a securely fenced garden - would be the perfect place for his further development. With the right guidance and a portion of calmness, the cautious young male dog will surely soon become the loyal "cuddle bear" that his appearance already promises. Kodi travels neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, dewormed and treated for fleas to his home, along with his EU pet passport. After a positive. But also an experienced foster home would be a good start. Many thanks Charlotte, you gave Kodi his handsome name and thus made him visible to the world. Status: 13.05.

Mit seinem dichten, dunklen Fell, in den schönsten Brauntönen mit weißen Farbakzenten, etwa 50 cm große und 20 kg ist Kodi ein echter Blickfang. Doch hinter der wunderschönen Optik verbirgt sich aktuell noch ein eher unsicherer Hund, der erst noch lernen muss, wie schön das Leben an der Seite von Menschen sein kann. Kodis Geschichte begann mit einem einsamen Fund in einem Park in Cluj-Napoca. Ohne Mikrochip und ohne Besitzer, der nach ihm suchte, stand er vor einer ungewissen Zukunft. Glücklicherweise konnte der Weg in ein großes städtisches Tierheim abgewendet werden, sodass er nun von Bologa aus nach seinem endgültigen Zuhause sucht. Vom Typ her lässt Kodis Äußeres vermuten, dass in seinen Vorfahren Gene von Schäferhund stecken könnten. Fest steht, dass er sich mit seinen etwa 1,5-2 Jahren vermutlich in den letzten Zügen der Pubertät befindet und eine gute Portion Neugierde, aber auch noch viel Vorsicht mitbringt. Das Leben innerhalb eines Hauses mit all seinen Alltagsgeräuschen ist ihm vermutlich noch völlig fremd. Gegenüber Menschen ist Kodi aktuell noch zurückhaltend. Er muss erst noch begreifen, dass eine streichelnde Hand nichts Böses bedeutet und Zuwendung etwas Positives ist. Seine verspielte Seite zeigt er jedoch bereits deutlich im Umgang mit anderen Hunden. So teilt er sich problemlos seinen Platz im Zwinger mit dem Rüden Gandal und zeigt sich im Kontakt mit Artgenossen sehr sozial. Ein souveräner Ersthund im neuen Zuhause könnte für ihn daher eine wertvolle Orientierungshilfe sein. Als wir ihn im April besucht haben, haben wir ihn als sehr sozial und eher unterwürfig kennengelernt. Gandalf – sein Zwingerpartner – ist der klare Chef im Zwinger. Kodi hat leider nicht viel zu melden. Gesucht werden hundeerfahrene Menschen mit Geduld und Einfühlungsvermögen, die Kodi die nötige Zeit geben, um Vertrauen zu fassen. Da er noch ganz am Anfang seiner Erziehung steht, ist ein ruhiges Umfeld – idealerweise ländlich gelegen und mit einem sicher eingezäunten Garten – der perfekte Ort für seine weitere Entwicklung. Mit der richtigen Führung und einer Portion Gelassenheit wird aus dem vorsichtigen jungen Rüden sicher bald genau der loyale „Kuschelbär“, den sein Aussehen bereits jetzt verspricht. Kodi reist kastriert, gechipt, geimpft, entwurmt und entfloht in sein Zuhause, zusammen mit seinem EU-Heimtierausweis. Nach positiver Vorkontrolle kann er gegen eine Schutzgebühr vermittelt werden. Aber auch eine erfahrene Pflegestelle wäre eine tolle Chance für den schönen Rüden! Vielen Dank Charlotte, Du hast Kodi seinen hübschen Namen geschenkt und ihn damit für die Welt sichtbar gemacht.

About Kodi

What life with Kodi looks like

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

An young 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 Kodi, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Kodi?
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 Kodi on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Kodi 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 Kodi 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 Kodi 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 Kodi 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.
