Morty

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 3 years

Morty (born 01/2023) is a young, lively male in his prime - full of energy, joie de vivre and with a big heart for his people. He brings everything you could wish for from a loyal family dog: closeness, loyalty and a good dose of cuddling needs. He loves being part of his home, and shows himself attentive, vigilant and reliable there. He knows cats and children and knows exactly who belongs to his family, and respects that. Nevertheless, he brings a resource issue with him, which is why we advise against a home with young children. After Morty lost his home, he now lives in a foster home and knows life in a large, mixed pack.He loves exercise: whether long walks, sporty excursions or joint adventures in nature - Morty is always enthusiastic and a hardy partner at his people's side. Car rides and leash obedience? Not a problem!Morty brings breed-typical guarding with him. We are looking for an active home with people who have dog experience and can handle his temperament. Who gives him calm, clear and consistent leadership and orientation will find Morty a great companion. Morty is smart, trainable and knows the basic commands he reliably executes.Morty will be vaccinated, chipped, neutered and after a positive pre-check with a protection contract.Wearing a safety harness is necessary when picking up the dog. Such a harness (3-strap safety harness) can be purchased for only 25 €.

Morty (geb. 01/2023) ist ein junger, lebhafter Rüde im besten Alter – voller Energie, Lebensfreude und mit einem großen Herzen für seine Menschen. Er ist bringt alles mit, was man sich von einem treuen Familienhund wünscht: Nähe, Loyalität und eine gute Portion Kuschelbedürfnis. Er liebt es, Teil seines Zuhauses zu sein, und zeigt sich dort aufmerksam, wachsam und zuverlässig.Er kennt Katzen und Kinder und weiß genau, wer zu seiner Familie gehört, und respektiert das. Dennoch bringt er eine Ressourcenthrmatik mit sich, weshalb wir von einem Zuhause mit kleinen Kindern abraten. Nachdem Morty sein Zuhause verloren hat, lebt er nun auf einer Pflegestelle und kennt das Leben in einem großen, gemischten Rudel.Bewegung liebt er sehr: Ob lange Spaziergänge, sportliche Ausflüge oder gemeinsame Abenteuer in der Natur – Morty ist immer begeistert dabei und ein ausdauernder Partner an der Seite seiner Menschen. Autofahrten und Leinenführigkeit? Gar kein Thema!Morty bringt rassetypisch einen Wachschutz mit. Wir wünschen uns ein aktives Zuhause bei Menschen, die Hundeerfahrung haben und mit seinem Temperament umgehen können. Wer ihm eine ruhige, klare und konsequente Führung und Orientierung gibt, wird in Morty einen tollen Begleiter finden. Morty ist klug, lernfähig und kennt die grundlegenden Kommandos, die er zuverlässig ausführt.Morty wird geimpft, gechipt, kastriert und nach positiver Vorkontrolle mit Schutzvertrag vermittelt.Das Tragen eines Sicherheitsgeschirrs ist bei der Abholung des Hundes notwendig. Ein solches Geschirr (3-Riemen-Sicherheitsgeschirr) kann für nur 25 € mit erworben werden.

About Morty

What life with Morty looks like

Morty is a large young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Vierbeiner in Not e.V. in Germany.

A 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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Morty, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Morty?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Vierbeiner in Not e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Morty on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Morty if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Vierbeiner in Not 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Morty 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 Morty 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 Vierbeiner in Not e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Morty 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.
