How do I contact the shelter about Tobi (II) (Tubis)?

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

Can I adopt Tobi (II) (Tubis) if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Pföttchenretter mit Herz 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 Tobi (II) (Tubis) 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 Tobi (II) (Tubis) 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 Pföttchenretter mit Herz e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Tobi (II) (Tubis) 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.

Tobi (II) (Tubis)

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 14 years

Name: Tobi (II) (Tubis) born: ca. 2018/2019 Breed: mixed breed, ca. 60 cm compatibility with others: male dogs eher nein, female dogs ja Current location: animal shelter Sokolka/Poland Reason for surrender: Found stray in a small village Tobi is a male dog who needs a bit of time to build trust. We believe he didn't have much contact with people and had to fend for himself. He absolutely dislikes other male dogs. When he arrived at the animal shelter, he was very thin and undernourished. Now, he has recovered well, and his weight is normal. For Tobi, we are looking for people with dog experience, preferably with an enclosed garden where Tobi can stay if he likes. A rural home would certainly be ideal for Tobi. Children should be at least 14 years old. Otherwise, we are sure that after a certain adjustment phase, Tobi will develop into a loyal and faithful male dog towards his owners, never leaving their side.

Name: Tobi (II) (Tubis) geboren: ca. 2018/2019 Rasse: Mischling, ca. 60 cm Verträglichkeit: Rüden eher nein, Hündinnen ja Derzeitiger Aufenthaltsort: Tierheim Sokolka/Polen Abgabegrund: Wurde streunend in einem kleinen Dorf gefunden Tobi ist ein Rüde, dem man anfangs ein wenig Zeit geben muss damit er Vertrauen fassen kann. Wir vermuten, dass er nicht so viel Kontakt zu Menschen hatte und sich alleine durchschlagen musste. Rüden mag er absolut nicht. Als er ins Tierheim kam war er sehr dünn und unterernährt. Mittlerweile hat er sich prima erholt und sein Gewicht ist normal. Für Tobi suchen wir Leute mit Hundeerfahrung, am besten einem eingezäunten Garten, wo sich Tobi aufhalten kann wenn er mag. Ein ländlicheres Zuhause wäre hier sicherlich ideal für Tobi. Kinder sollten schon größer sein, ab 14 Jahre. Ansonsten sind wir uns sicher, dass sich Tobi nach einer gewissen Eingewöhnungsphase zu einem treuen und loyalen Rüden seinen Haltern gegenüber entwickeln wird, denen er nicht mehr von der Seite weicht.

What life with Tobi (II) (Tubis) looks like

Tobi (II) (Tubis) is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at Pföttchenretter mit Herz e.V. in Leichlingen.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.
