How do I contact the shelter about Murphy (m)?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tiernothilfe Casa Katharina e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Murphy (m) on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Murphy (m) if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tiernothilfe Casa Katharina 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.

Is Murphy (m) 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 Murphy (m) 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 Tiernothilfe Casa Katharina e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Murphy (m) 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.

Murphy (m)

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 3 years

The handsome MURPHY, born 01.02.2023, about 55 cm tall, was lucky in a sad situation. His owner passed away and he was supposed to be taken to the municipal shelter. Elena found out and immediately offered help and made space to ensure this rough diamond wouldn't disappear in the municipal shelter. He is very open, friendly, and people-oriented at Ozyhouse. He also lived in a pack and gets along well with other animals. A cat test can be done at any time if you have a house cat at home. Of course, he still has a lot to learn if he lives here in Germany, but with patience and humor, this should not be a big problem for this great male dog. Who would like to have the big blonde by their side and rescue him? MURPHY is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, dewormed, and leaves with a Snaptest and EU passport. He will be rehomed with V. All our dogs arrive in 91278 Pottenstein and would also like to be picked up here. Contact: or on fb. All our dogs travel with official documents and of course we also have paragraph 11.

Der bildhübsche MURPHY, geb.01.02.2023, ca. 55 groß, hatte Glück im Unglück. Sein Besitzer ist verstorben und er sollte ins städtische Shelter gebracht werden. Elena hat davon erfahren und sofort Hilfe zugesichert und Platz geschaffen, um diesen Rohdiamanten nicht im städtischen Shelter verschwinden zu lassen. Er zeigt sich sehr offen, freundlich und menschenbezogen im Ozyhouse. Hat auch im Rudel gelebt und kommt prima mit Artgenossen zurecht. Ein Katzentest könnte jederzeit gemacht werden, wenn ihr einen Stubentiger daheim habt. Sicherlich muss er noch etliches lernen, wenn er hier in Deutschland lebt, aber mit Geduld und Humor sollte das bei diesem tollen Rüden kein großes Problem darstellen. Wer hätte gerne den großen Blonden an seiner Seite und holt ihn da raus??? MURPHY wird kastriert, geimpft, gechipt, entwurmt und mit Snaptest und EU-Pass ausreisen. Er wird mit Vorkontrolle und Vertrag über die Tiernothilfe Casa Katharina e.V. vermittelt. Alle unsere Hunde kommen in 91278 Pottenstein an und möchten auch hier abgeholt werden. Kontakt: oder auf fb. Alle unsere Hunde reisen mit offiziellen Tracespapieren und natürlich haben wir auch den Paragraph 11.

About Murphy (m)

What life with Murphy (m) looks like

Murphy (m) is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tiernothilfe Casa Katharina e.V. in Nürnberg.

An 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. Animals leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with a valid EU pet passport. Adoption fees usually fall between €250 and €450, covering veterinary preparation.
