MAREK

Labrador Retriever · Male · Adult · 7 years

beim Probewohnen Šarplaninac-Mischling, Rüde, kastriert, geb.: 2019 MAREK ist seit 2023 im Tierheim und wurde wegen Überforderung bei uns abgegeben. Der sanfte Riese ist ein typischer Vertreter der Herdenschutzhunde. Welche Rassen genau drinstecken, lässt sich allerdings nicht zweifelsfrei sagen. Er ist sehr loyal seinen Bezugspersonen gegenüber, während er bei Fremden misstrauisch ist und jeden erst mal anbellt. Mit ihm bekannten Menschen kuschelt er gerne. In seinem alten Zuhause durfte MAREK leider nicht viel kennenlernen, umso mehr genießt er nun seine Ausflüge mit seinen Bezugspersonen. Mit anderen Hunden hat MAREK nicht viel Erfahrung. Hündinnen findet er schon ganz gut, allerdings weiß er nicht so richtig, was er machen soll. Es wird aber Stück für Stück besser. Seine Leinenführigkeit ist leider nicht die beste, was aufgrund seiner Größe und Kraft einiges an Standhaftigkeit seitens des Menschen voraussetzt. Besonders wenn er andere Hunde sieht, ist er oft schwierig zu halten. Wir wünschen uns für ihn ein ländliches Umfeld mit einem eingezäunten Grundstück. Er streift gerne über unsere Hundewiesen und meldet es sofort, wenn jemand Fremdes sich in der Nähe aufhält. Kinder und Katzen sollten im neuen Haushalt nicht leben. Wer also über Hundeerfahrung verfügt, es mit einem kleinen Sturkopf aufnehmen will und einen treuen Begleiter fürs Leben sucht, der ist bei MAREK an der richtigen Stelle.

About MAREK

What life with MAREK looks like

MAREK is a extra-large adult labrador retriever dog waiting at Tierheim Bayreuth in Bayreuth.

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.

Frequently asked

Adopting MAREK, answered.

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