How do I contact the shelter about Lucas?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Franz von Assisi Hundenothilfe e.V. (Hunde ohne Lobby) handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Lucas on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Lucas if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Franz von Assisi Hundenothilfe e.V. (Hunde ohne Lobby) 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 Lucas 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 Lucas 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 Franz von Assisi Hundenothilfe e.V. (Hunde ohne Lobby) early rather than rehoming privately; they know Lucas 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.

Lucas

Podenco · Male · Adult · 6 years

Origin / Location: Ubeda (Andalusia) Character: gentle soul, kind and friendly, compatible with other animals, needs loving guidance and support New home: no expectations, quiet home in a rural area or outskirts, dog-proof garden, preferably second dog, not for first-time dog owners, no cats or small animals Adoption fee: 450 euros including transport A heart full of hope: Lucas is looking for loving people Have you ever heard of the unique charm of a Podenco? These wonderful beings who slowly but surely open the door to your heart with their reserved and initially cautious nature? One of these special souls is our little soul Lucas, born in June 2020. He is a dog who deserves so much love and trust, yet he is continually overlooked - despite being such a wonderful companion. With other dogs, Lucas shows good social behavior and is never intrusive. He walks well on a leash and walks are a highlight for him, as he is interested in his surroundings but can orient himself well. We believe that such a special dog should not spend his life in an animal shelter. Lucas deserves a home that gives him security and safety. Gets along with other dogs.

Herkunft / Standort: Ubeda (Andalusien) Charakter: sanfte Seele, nett und freundlich, verträglich mit Artgenossen, benötigt liebevolle Führung und Unterstützung Neues Zuhause: keine Erwartungen, ruhiges Zuhause in ländlicher Umgebung oder Randgebiet, hundesicherer Garten, gerne Zweithund, keine Hundeanfänger, keine Katzen oder Kleintiere Vermittlungsgebühr: 450 Euro incl. Transport Ein Herz voller Hoffnung: Lucas sucht liebevolle Menschen Haben Sie schon von dem einzigartigen Charme eines Podencos gehört? Diese wundervollen Wesen, die mit ihrer zurückhaltenden und anfangs vorsichtigen Art ganz langsam, aber unaufhaltsam, die Tür zu Ihrem Herzen öffnen? Einer dieser besonderen Seelen ist unser Seelchen Lucas, geboren im Juni 2020. Er ist ein Hund, der so viel Liebe und Vertrauen verdient, doch leider wird er immer wieder übersehen – und das, obwohl er so ein wundervoller Begleiter sein könnte. Bei Hunden zeigt Lucas ein gutes Sozialverhalten und ist nie aufdringlich. Er läuft bereits gut an der Leine und Spaziergänge sind für ihn ein Highlight, wobei er zwar interessiert an der Umgebung ist, sich aber gut orientieren kann. Wir sind der Meinung, dass so ein besonderer Hund nicht sein Leben im Tierheim fristen sollte. Lucas verdient ein Zuhause, das ihm Geborgenheit und Sicherheit schenkt. Ein Garten sollte hier nicht fehlen und eine

About Lucas

What life with Lucas looks like

Lucas is a large adult podenco dog waiting at Franz von Assisi Hundenothilfe e.V. (Hunde ohne Lobby) in Vilseck.

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.
