Lumpi

Male · Young · 3 years

Lumpi (Herdenschutz-Mix, *01/01/2024, 37 kg) originally from abroad is very attached to his humans - he enjoys attention but doesn't need constant cuddles as he also likes to do his own thing. Leash training is currently being worked on. He occasionally takes the lead and pulls, but has already improved significantly in this area. He gets along well with female dogs, but compatibility depends on individual preference with male dogs. Due to his breed-specific territorial instinct, we are looking for a home with a garden. No small children should be present in his new home. If Lumpi has sparked your interest, please call or email us - including your phone number.

DE·Show original

Herdenschutz-Mix Lumpi (*01.01.2024, 37 kg) stammt ursprünglich aus dem Ausland. Seinen Menschen gegenüber ist Lumpi sehr zugewandt – er freut sich über Aufmerksamkeit, braucht jedoch nicht ständig Kuscheleinheiten, da er auch gerne mal sein eigenes Ding macht. An der Leinenführigkeit wird derzeit noch gearbeitet. Gelegentlich übernimmt er gerne die Richtung und zieht, hat sich in diesem Bereich aber bereits deutlich verbessert. Mit Hündinnen ist er gut verträglich, bei Rüden entscheidet die Sympathie. Rassebedingt hat Lumpi einen Territorialinstinkt weshalb wir uns für ihn ein Zuhause mit Garten wünschen. Kleine Kinder sollten in seinem neuen Zuhause nicht vorhanden sein. Falls Lumpi Ihr Interesse geweckt hat, rufen Sie uns gerne an oder schreiben eine Email - bitte mit Angabe Ihrer Telefonnummer.

About Lumpi

What life with Lumpi looks like

Lumpi is a large young adult dog waiting at Tierheim Düsseldorf in Düsseldorf.

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 Lumpi, answered.

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