Muffin

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

09/2026 Muffin, born 08.01.2025, hormone chip, approx. 50 cm shoulder height. In foster care in 53547 Breitscheid Muffin was born on 08.01.2025. He stands just under 50 cm tall and weighs about 15 kg. He is currently waiting in his foster home in 53547 Breitscheid for his forever home. He is a real happy-go-lucky dog: charming, cuddly, and sometimes also a little lovable scamp. Despite great efforts, things unfortunately did not work out long-term in his first home. Now he is waiting to finally find his people, people with whom he can truly settle in. Muffin gets along very well with other dogs, travels calmly in the car, and can also be left alone for a while without problems. With his previous owners, he already had his first experiences in search-and-rescue dog sports. Because of his young age, however, this was still a bit too much for him. For Muffin, good basic training and a confident human by his side are currently far more important than any special task. Behind his sometimes cheeky manner is actually a fairly insecure dog. Muffin often only knows black or white at the moment, and finding his bearings in between is still hard for him. That is why he is looking for active, consistent, and empathetic people who can give him security, set clear rules, and lead him fairly. Once Muffin understands where he stands, he is easygoing, eager to learn, and happy to fit in. Anyone who enjoys working with a young dog and growing together will find in Muffin a loyal companion who enriches every day with his cheerful nature. ✔️ vaccinated ✔️ microchipped ✔️ with EU pet passport ✔️ currently still hormone chipped, not neutered The

09/2026 Muffin, geboren 08. 01. 2025, hormongechippt, ca. 50cm Schulterhöhe Auf Pflegestelle in 53547 Breitscheid Muffin ist am 08. 01. 2025 geboren, knapp 50 cm groß und etwa 15 kg schwer. Aktuell wartet er auf seiner Pflegestelle in 53547 Breitscheid auf sein Für-immer-Zuhause. Er ist ein echter Gute-Laune-Hund – charmant, verschmust und manchmal eben auch ein kleiner liebenswerter Rotzlöffel. Trotz großer Bemühungen hat es in seinem ersten Zuhause leider nicht dauerhaft gepasst. Nun wartet er darauf, endlich seine Menschen zu finden – Menschen, bei denen er wirklich ankommen darf. Muffin versteht sich sehr gut mit anderen Hunden, fährt entspannt im Auto mit und kann auch problemlos eine Zeit alleine bleiben. Bei seinen Vorbesitzern durfte er bereits erste Erfahrungen im Rettungshundesport sammeln. Aufgrund seines jungen Alters war ihm das jedoch noch etwas zu viel. Viel wichtiger als eine besondere Aufgabe ist für Muffin derzeit ohnehin eine gute Grunderziehung und ein souveräner Mensch an seiner Seite. Denn hinter seiner manchmal frechen Art steckt eigentlich ein eher unsicherer Hund. Muffin kennt momentan oft nur Schwarz oder Weiß - dazwischen fällt ihm die Orientierung noch schwer. Deshalb sucht er sportliche, konsequente und einfühlsame Menschen, die ihm Sicherheit geben, klare Regeln aufstellen und ihn fair führen. Hat Muffin verstanden, woran er ist, zeigt er sich unkompliziert, lernfreudig und ordnet sich gerne ein. Wer Freude daran hat, mit einem jungen Hund zu arbeiten und gemeinsam zu wachsen, wird in Muffin einen treuen Begleiter finden, der mit seiner fröhlichen Art jeden Tag bereichert. ✔️ geimpft ✔️ gechippt ✔️ mit EU-Heimtierausweis ✔️ aktuell noch hormongechippt, nicht kastriert Die

About Muffin

What life with Muffin looks like

Muffin is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Hope for Future e.V. in Germany.

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

Frequently asked

Adopting Muffin, answered.

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