Louis

Mixed Breed · Unknown

Louis is urgently seeking a new loving home. His family, with heavy hearts, has to part ways with him because their work requires them to travel frequently, and they no longer have enough time to meet Louis's needs. This causes Louis a lot of distress, as all he wants is to be with his people. Louis is an 8 1/2 year old Romanian herding dog-wolf dog mixed breed, about 60 cm tall, neutered, and microchipped. His fur is very thick, and he loves to be brushed every day. Unfortunately, he does not get along well with other animals. He also lacks trust in strangers due to past negative experiences. Once he trusts people, he becomes very affectionate and allows himself to be petted, scratched, combed, and even his ears cleaned. He does not like water at all. Walking with him is a matter of trust. If he walks a regular route, it is no longer a problem. A leash should initially be kept short, and a muzzle is mandatory for him outdoors. He has a prey drive. Louis is healthy, regularly vaccinated, and behaves very calmly and relaxed at the vet. Louis enjoys playing and prefers to be with his family, whom he loves dearly and, due to his breed, wants to protect. Therefore, he should be the only dog in a home with people who have experience with dogs and the breed, and who can spend plenty of time with him and keep him adequately occupied, which is very important to him. Anyone interested in Louis should please contact Herr Traeger at . Louis lives in Augustfehn. Note: All provided data comes from the owners.

Louis sucht ganz dringend ein neues liebevolles Zuhause. Seine Familie muss sich schweren Herzens von ihm trennen, da man beruflich bedingt viel unterwegs ist und nicht mehr ausreichend Zeit für Louis hat, um seinen Bedürfnissen gerecht zu werden. Darunter leidet Louis sehr, denn er möchte nichts lieber als bei seinen Menschen sein Louis ist ein 8 1/2 Jahre alter rumänischer Hütehund-Wolfshund Mischling, ca 60 cm groß, kastriert und gechippt. Sein Fell ist sehr dick und er liebt es, jeden Tag gebürstet zu werden. Leider kommt er nicht gut mit anderen Tieren zurecht. Und auch zu fremden Menschen hat er kein Vertrauen, da er in seiner Vergangenheit schlechte Erfahrungen sammeln musste. Wenn er das Vertrauen zu den Menschen gefunden hat, ist er sehr zutraulich und lässt sich auch streicheln, kraulen, kämmen und auch Ohren sauber machen. Wasser mag er gar nicht. Spazieren gehen ist bei ihm Vertrauenssache. Wenn er den Weg regelmäßig läuft ist das kein Problem mehr. Leine sollte erst kurz gehalten werden und Maulkorb ist draußen Pflicht bei ihm. Jagdtrieb ist vorhanden. Louis ist gesund, wurde regelmäßig geimpft und beim Tierarzt verhält er sich total ruhig und relaxt. Louis spielt gerne und am liebsten ist er bei seiner Familie, die er sehr liebt und rassebedingt auch beschützen möchte. Deshalb sollte er als Einzelhund zu Menschen mit Hunde- und Rasseerfahrung, die viel Zeit für ihn haben und ihn ausreichend beschäftigen können, was für ihn sehr wichtig ist.

About Louis

What life with Louis looks like

Louis is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein Ammerland e.V. in Westerstede.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. 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 Louis, answered.

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