Lion

Mixed Breed · Male

Lion hat über lange Zeit hinweg mit Jordis zusammengelebt, die beiden bildeten ein eingespieltes Team, das sich gut ergänzte. Nach Jordis’ Tod hat sich für Lion einiges verändert. Er ist zu Robert und Käthe umgezogen und lebt nun in einem großzügigen Wiesenzwinger mit viel Platz und Ruhe. Die Umstellung hat er gut gemeistert. Mit Robert und Käthe kommt Lion erfreulich gut zurecht. Er zeigt eine gesunde Toleranz, besonders gegenüber Robert, mit dem er sich arrangiert hat. Dabei bleibt er aber klar in seiner Kommunikation. Lion weiß, was er möchte und auch, was nicht. Wird es ihm zu viel, setzt er Grenzen. Im Kontakt mit vertrauten Menschen zeigt Lion seine sanfte Seite. Er sucht Nähe, ist verschmust und genießt die Zuwendung. Gleichzeitig spürt man, dass er sich nie ganz sicher ist und immer wieder etwas aufdreht und wegspringt. Bei Fremden schnappt er dann auch mal ab. Lion läuft gut an der Leine mit.

About Lion

What life with Lion looks like

Lion is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Freundeskreis Brunopet e.V. in Germany.

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 Lion, answered.

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