Max

Yorkshire Terrier · Male · Adult · 7 years

Yorki-Chihua-MixRüde born: 08.07.2018 Foreign: very reserved Children: No Rüden: after sympathy Hündinnen: after sympathy Cats: No Small animals: No Max came to our animal shelter because the owner had to go to a nursing home. So far, he shows a rather shy behavior and does not want to be touched. Currently, Max does not particularly like being brushed or having his collar and harness put on. We are therefore looking for sensitive people who can give him the time he needs and recognize him as a Terrier personality. Max finds long walks quite exciting and also enjoys meeting other dogs on the way. He could also be suitable as a second dog depending on the sympathy. We are looking for people who can bring a lot of patience and understanding and do not want to force Max to be hugged and brushed immediately.

Er zeigt sich bisher eher scheu und möchte nicht angefasst werden.Besonders bürsten und anziehen von Halsband und Geschirr mag Max aktuell nicht. Wir suchen daher einfühlsame Menschen, die ihm die Zeit geben, die er braucht und ihn als Terrier-Persönlichkeit wahrnehmen. Max findet durchaus längere Spaziergänge spannend und mag unterwegs auch Hundekontakt. Er könnte je nach Sympathie auch als Zweithund geeignet sein. Wir suchen für ihn Menschen, die viel Geduld und Verständnis mitbringen und ihn nicht direkt Zwangsbeschmusen und bürsten wollen.

About Max

What life with Max looks like

Max is a adult yorkshire terrier dog waiting at Hedwig-Trampert-Tierheim Dillingen in Dillingen.

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 Max, answered.

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