adoption requirements adoption process Now request this animal! adoption requirements adoption process Now request this dog! Koriander is waiting. And he's been waiting for far too long—almost two years. He was found as a mere five-month-old puppy during a spay/neuter campaign in Săvădisla. Whether he was abandoned there or made it on his own, we don't know. What we do know is that Koriander spent his entire childhood and adolescence in a foster home in Romania. He grew up, matured, and became an adult without ever experiencing his own home. Today, Koriander is approximately two years old. A large, impressive male dog with a shoulder height of around 65 cm and a weight of about 40 kg. He is a real looker, stately, strong, and yet soft-spoken. One of those dogs that exude presence without being loud. For some, Koriander is just right, for others, perhaps too much. Like his namesake, he is not a dog for everyone's taste, but something very special for the right people. Koriander shows playful, curious, and very social behavior. He gets along well with other dogs, whether male or female. He loves movement, explores his surroundings attentively, and brings a good dose of joy with him. At the same time, he also has a cuddly, affectionate side and enjoys closeness when given the time. Cats have not been tested yet. Since Koriander likely carries herding or kitchen guard dog genes, he brings with him traits that should not be underestimated. These dogs are smart, independent, vigilant, and like to make their own decisions. They are not city dogs, not companions for a hectic environment, and not made to be everywhere at once. Koriander needs people who can read him, emit calmness, offer clear structures, and give him security. A rural home with plenty of space would be ideal. A garden would be nice, but is mainly important if it is well-secured and provides retreat and an overview. It is assumed that Koriander only knows the environment of the foster home. House training, leash manners, consistent routines, and everyday living in a family are new to him. Nevertheless, Koriander is in the best age. The wild puppy phase is behind him, puberty is slowly fading away, although of course he is still sorting out himself and his boundaries. This is exactly the moment when he can learn particularly well. With positive reinforcement, loving consequences, and patience, he will certainly develop into a loyal, reliable companion. A positively trained dog class, ideally with experience in working with kitchen guard or herding dog mixes, can be a valuable support. What Koriander has never had is a home. No family, no everyday life, no constant person just for him. And yet, he remains open, friendly, and ready to bond. And hopes that someone will finally see him. Koriander travels neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, dewormed, and treated for fleas. He brings his EU pet passport and can be adopted after a positive home check. Even a foster home would be a significant first step in a new life for Koriander. Who gives this special male dog the chance he deserves after so long? A heartfelt thank you to Silvie S., who gave Koriander his distinctive name and thus a sense of identity. As of January 14.

Vermittlungsvoraussetzungen Vermittlungsablauf Jetzt dieses Tier anfragen! Vermittlungsvoraussetzungen Vermittlungsablauf Jetzt diesen Hund anfragen! Koriander wartet. Und zwar schon viel zu lange. Gefunden wurde er als gerade einmal fünf Monate alter Welpe während einer Kastrationskampagne in Săvădisla. Ob er ausgesetzt wurde oder sich bereits allein durchschlagen musste, wissen wir nicht. Was wir aber wissen: Seitdem hat Koriander seine gesamte Kindheit und Jugend in einer rumänischen Pflegestelle verbracht. Dort ist er aufgewachsen, erwachsen geworden und hat Tag für Tag darauf gewartet, endlich entdeckt zu werden. Heute ist Koriander etwa 3 Jahre alt, rund 65 cm groß und wiegt etwa 40 kg. Er ist ein beeindruckender Rüde mit einer stattlichen Erscheinung, der gleichzeitig einen weichen, freundlichen Ausdruck hat. Einer dieser Hunde, die allein durch ihre Präsenz auffallen, ohne sich in den Vordergrund zu drängen. Koriander zeigt sich verspielt, neugierig und sozial. Mit anderen Hunden versteht er sich sehr gut, unabhängig von Geschlecht oder Größe. Er erkundet seine Umgebung aufmerksam, freut sich über Bewegung und bringt eine schöne Portion Lebensfreude mit. Gleichzeitig besitzt er eine ruhige, verschmuste Seite und genießt die Nähe zu vertrauten Menschen. Ob er Katzen kennt, können wir derzeit leider nicht sagen. Da wir davon ausgehen, dass Koriander Anteile eines Herdenschutzhundes mitbringt, wünschen wir uns für ihn Menschen, die sich mit den Besonderheiten solcher Hunde auseinandersetzen möchten. Diese Hunde gelten als intelligent, eigenständig und aufmerksam. Sie treffen gerne eigene Entscheidungen und benötigen Menschen, die ihnen mit Ruhe, Verständnis und klaren Strukturen begegnen. Ein Zuhause in eher ländlicher Umgebung wäre für Koriander ideal. Ein sicher eingezäunter Garten wäre schön, damit er seine Umgebung beobachten und zur Ruhe kommen kann. Das Leben in einer hektischen Stadt oder ein sehr unruhiger Alltag würden nicht seinen Bedürfnissen entsprechen. Koriander kennt bisher nur das Leben im kleinen shelter. Dinge wie Stubenreinheit, Leinenführigkeit, feste Alltagsabläufe oder das Leben in einer Familie werden für ihn neu sein. Doch mit seinen drei Jahren befindet er sich in einem wunderbaren Alter: Die stürmische Welpenzeit liegt hinter ihm, gleichzeitig ist er jung genug, um Neues zu lernen und sich gut an ein neues Leben anzupassen. Mit Geduld, positiver Verstärkung und liebevoller Konsequenz wird Koriander Schritt für Schritt lernen, was zu einem Familienhund dazugehört. Der Besuch einer positiv arbeitenden Hundeschule – idealerweise mit Erfahrung im Umgang mit Herdenschutz-Mischlingen – kann dabei eine wertvolle Unterstützung sein. Was Koriander bisher nie erleben durfte, ist ein eigenes Zuhause. Keine feste Bezugsperson. Kein eigenes Körbchen. Kein Mensch, der jeden Tag aufs Neue für ihn da ist. Koriander reist kastriert, gechipt, geimpft, entwurmt und entfloht mit EU-Heimtierausweis. Nach positiver Vorkontrolle und gegen Schutzgebühr kann er in sein neues Zuhause ziehen. Auch eine Pflegestelle würde ihm helfen, endlich den ersten Schritt in ein neues Leben zu machen. Ein herzliches Dankeschön an Silvie S., die Koriander seinen außergewöhnlichen Namen geschenkt und ihm damit eine eigene Identität gegeben hat. Stand: 20.06.2026

About Koriander

What life with Koriander looks like

Koriander is a extra-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 Koriander, answered.

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