Magnus is exactly like that. Together with his brother Mephisto, he was left near a primary school in Seona. Magnus has been living in the animal shelter since 09.01.2025 - and the big puppy from back then has now become a sturdy young dog. Magnus is a really big boy and weighs about 30 kg at a height of approx. 55 cm at the shoulder. He has already completed his tooth change. We cannot say for sure what breeds are in him - but a bit of "gentle giant" is definitely in him. 😊 Because despite his size, one thing describes him above all: his wonderfully stable and friendly nature. Magnus is balanced, people-oriented and very affectionate. He enjoys closeness and stroking and approaches his environment with a pleasant composure. At the same time, of course, there is still a young dog in him: Magnus is cheerful, playful and enjoys discovering the world. For his future humans, his size of course means a bit of responsibility. Even a dear fellow like this wants to learn what belongs to a shared everyday life. Leash training, orientation towards humans and all the small rules of living together can be built up together. We wish Magnus people who are not deterred by a few more kilos of dog and who are keen to show a big, gentle young dog how beautiful a home can be. Maybe you are missing just such a big piece of dog happiness? ❤️ .fusion-body .fusion-button Interest in an adoption?

Magnus – groß, sanft und mit ganz viel Herz ❤️ .fusion-body .fusion-builder-column-243 > .fusion-body .fusion-flex-container .fusion-imageframe.imageframe-28 img{aspect-ratio:2 / 3;object-position:23% 29%;} .fusion-body .fusion-builder-column-244 > Aufenthaltsort: Tierheim in Osjek, Kroatien Geschlecht: männlich, kastriert Geburtsdatum: 09.11.2024 Schulterhöhe: ca. 55 cm/ 30 Kilo Verträglichkeit mit Katzen Unbekannt Einzel- oder Zweithund ideale Umgebung: Stadtrand, ländlich geeignet für: Ambitionierte Hundeanfänger .fusion-body .fusion-button Direkt zur Selbstauskunft .fusion-body .fusion-builder-column-245 > .fusion-body .fusion-flex-container .fusion-gallery-29 Loading the next set of gallery items... weitere Bilder laden... .fusion-body .fusion-builder-column-246 > .fusion-body .fusion-flex-container Manche Hunde bringen schon als junge Kerle eine Ruhe mit, bei der man sich fragt, wie sie das eigentlich machen. Magnus ist genau so einer. Gemeinsam mit seinem Bruder Mephisto wurde er nahe einer Grundschule in Seona zurückgelassen. Seit dem 09.01.2025 lebt Magnus im Tierheim – und aus dem großen Welpen von damals ist inzwischen ein stattlicher junger Rüde geworden. Magnus ist ein wirklich großer Junge und bringt etwa 30 kg bei ca. 55 cm Schulterhöhe auf die Waage. Seinen Zahnwechsel hat er bereits hinter sich. Welche Rassen in ihm stecken, können wir nicht sicher sagen – aber ein bisschen „sanfter Riese“ steckt definitiv in ihm. 😉 Denn trotz seiner Größe beschreibt ihn vor allem eines: sein wunderbar stabiles und freundliches Wesen. Magnus zeigt sich ausgeglichen, menschenbezogen und sehr verschmust. Er genießt Nähe und Streicheleinheiten und begegnet seiner Umwelt mit einer angenehmen Gelassenheit. Gleichzeitig steckt natürlich noch ein junger Hund in ihm: Magnus ist fröhlich, verspielt und hat Spaß daran, die Welt zu entdecken. Für seine zukünftigen Menschen bedeutet seine Größe natürlich trotzdem ein bisschen Verantwortung. Auch ein so lieber Kerl möchte noch lernen, was zu einem gemeinsamen Alltag dazugehört. Leinenführigkeit, Orientierung am Menschen und all die kleinen Regeln des Zusammenlebens dürfen gemeinsam weiter aufgebaut werden. Wir wünschen uns für Magnus Menschen, die sich nicht von ein paar Kilo mehr Hund abschrecken lassen und Lust darauf haben, einem großen, sanften jungen Rüden zu zeigen, wie schön ein eigenes Zuhause sein kann. Vielleicht fehlt bei euch ja genau noch so ein großes Stück Hundeglück? ❤️ .fusion-body .fusion-button Interesse an einer Adoption?

About Magnus

What life with Magnus looks like

Magnus is a small young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Nordic Strays e.V. in Germany.

An young 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 Magnus, answered.

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