How do I contact the shelter about Moritz?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Herzsprung handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Moritz on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Moritz if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Herzsprung 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 Moritz 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 Moritz 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 Herzsprung early rather than rehoming privately; they know Moritz 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.

Moritz

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 10 months

Moritz is vaccinated, microchipped, dewormed, neutered, medically examined, and has an EU Pass. To all dog lovers, a friendly hello, my name is Moritz and I am a male dog born in January 2025 with a shoulder height of approximately 40cm. Unfortunately, I have never had the fortune to experience the warmth of a loving home in my entire life and have been waiting since puppyhood for the chance to be seen and win wonderful people for myself. I currently live in the animal shelter Herzsprung and am looking for the perfect match with whom I can spend the rest of my life. Before you decide to choose me as your four-legged companion, you must of course know what my character is like and whether we are a good match. You must know that I am currently still scared and skeptical of strangers, as I do not know if you will also be nice to me. I need time to get to know you two-legged beings better and to build trust. Once I have built trust with my people, I am a really very loving and gentle dog. I then love to be gently stroked by my owner and to accompany them in everyday life. I am then a very loyal and clingy dog who enjoys every affection from his people. With my fellow animals, I get along very well and am also happy to make new friendships with other dogs. In my home, I have both a calm and an energetic side. Therefore, I have many hobbies that I can get excited about, and we will have a lot of fun together. I love to explore my surroundings, run around with you, and explore new scents, and in between, have my ears scratched. My new people should be ready to continue training with me and to work on my fears and insecurities. I wish for a loving and caring home with nice people so that we can enjoy many beautiful and happy years together.

Moritz ist geimpft, gechipt, entwurmt, kastriert, tierärztlich untersucht und hat einen EU-Pass. An alle Hundefreunde ein freundliches Hallo, mein Name ist Moritz und ich bin ein am 08.2025 geborener Hundemann mit einer Schulterhöhe von ca. 40cm. Leider konnte ich in meinem gesamten Leben noch nie das Glück erfahren, ein liebevolles Zuhause zu haben und warte seit Welpenalter auf die Chance endlich gesehen zu werden und wunderbare Menschen für mich gewinnen zu können. Ich lebe momentan im Tierheim Herzsprung und halte hier nach den passenden Menschen Ausschau mit denen ich den Rest meines Lebens verbringen möchte. Bevor ihr euch für mich als euren vierbeinigen Begleiter entscheidet, müsst ihr natürlich wissen wie mein Charakter so ist und ob wir gut zusammen passen. Ihr müsst wissen, dass ich mich derzeit bei fremden Menschen noch verängstigt und skeptisch verhalte, da ich ja nicht weiß ob ihr auch nett zu mir seid. Ich brauche erst einmal Zeit um euch Zweibeiner besser kennenzulernen und Vertrauen aufzubauen. Habe ich aber zu meinen Menschen Vertrauen aufgebaut, bin ich ein wirklich sehr lieber und sanfter Hundemann. Ich liebe es dann von meinem Besitzer liebevoll gestreichelt zu werden und sie im Alltag zu begleiten. Ich bin dann ein sehr treuer und anhänglicher Hundemann, der jede Zuneigung von seinen Menschen in vollen Zügen genießt. Mit meinen Artgenossen verstehe ich mich sehr gut und schließe auch gerne neue Freundschaften mit anderen Hunden. In meinem Zuhause habe ich sowohl eine ausgeglichene, wie auch eine aufgeweckte Seite. Daher habe ich viele Hobbys für die ich mich begeistern kann und wir werden viel Spaß zusammen haben. Ich liebe es meine Umgebung zu erkunden, mit euch umher zu toben und neue Gerüche zu erforschen und zwischen durch mir die Ohren kraulen zu lassen. Meine neuen Menschen sollten auf jeden Fall bereit sein, weiterhin mit mir zu trainieren und mit mir an meinen Ängsten und Unsicherheiten zu arbeiten. Ich wünsche mir ein liebevolles und fürsorgliches Zuhause bei netten Menschen, damit wir zusammen ganz viele schöne und glückliche Jahre genießen können.

About Moritz

What life with Moritz looks like

Moritz is a puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Herzsprung.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇩🇪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.
