Nanuk

Husky · Male · Senior · 14 years

Nanuk – lovable Husky grandpa looking for his forever home &;&;&; Nanuk is a male Husky, born around 2012, and a true treasure on four paws. His owner had to give him up with a heavy heart due to health reasons – now this wonderful dog-grandpa is looking for a new home where he can spend many more beautiful, cozy years. Nanuk is an incredibly kind, friendly dog who adores people and enjoys their company. With his calm, gentle nature, he quickly wins the hearts of those who meet him. Despite his age, he still carries a bit of the typical Husky spirit: he loves walks and being outdoors, though he prefers a more leisurely pace these days. He doesn't need long jogging sessions or strenuous bike rides anymore – relaxed walks and quality time are just right for him. Nanuk is compatible with other dogs, both male and female. Cats don't interest him much, so a home with feline companions is also a good fit. For Nanuk, we wish for a quiet, loving home where his senior needs are understood and where he can be given the security he deserves. Due to his age and need for calm, small children would not be ideal. Nanuk is truly a treasure – a loyal companion with a warm heart who simply wants to settle in. Giving a senior dog a chance often brings something very special in return: deep gratitude, quiet loyalty, and a whole lot of love. &; Perhaps soon, Nanuk can spend his golden years in a warm dog bed with people who will show him once again how wonderful a home can be. If you are seriously interested, we would be happy to arrange a meet-and-greet by phone.

Nanuk – liebenswerter Husky-Opa sucht sein Herzenszuhause &;&;&; Nanuk ist ein Husky-Rüde , geboren ca. 2012 , und ein echter Schatz auf vier Pfoten. Schweren Herzens musste sein Besitzer ihn aus gesundheitlichen Gründen abgeben – nun sucht dieser wunderbare Hunde-Opa ein neues Zuhause, in dem er noch viele schöne, gemütliche Jahre verbringen darf. Nanuk ist ein unglaublich lieber, freundlicher Hund , der Menschen sehr mag und ihre Nähe genießt. Mit seiner ruhigen, sanften Art erobert er schnell die Herzen derjenigen, die ihn kennenlernen. Trotz seines Alters trägt er noch immer ein Stück des typischen Husky-Geistes in sich: Er liebt Spaziergänge und ist gerne unterwegs , allerdings heute lieber in gemütlichem Tempo . Lange Joggingrunden oder sportliche Fahrradtouren braucht er nicht mehr – entspannte Spaziergänge und gemeinsame Zeit sind für ihn genau das Richtige. Mit anderen Hunden zeigt sich Nanuk verträglich – sowohl mit Rüden als auch mit Hündinnen . Katzen interessieren ihn kaum, sodass auch ein Zuhause mit Samtpfoten gut vorstellbar ist. Für Nanuk wünschen wir uns ein ruhiges, liebevolles Zuhause , in dem man seine Bedürfnisse als Senior versteht und ihm die Geborgenheit schenkt, die er verdient. Kleine Kinder würden wir ihm aufgrund seines Alters und seines Ruhebedürfnisses eher nicht zumuten. Nanuk ist wirklich ein Goldschatz – ein treuer Begleiter mit warmem Herzen, der einfach nur ankommen möchte. Wer einem Hundesenior eine Chance gibt, bekommt oft etwas ganz Besonderes zurück: tiefe Dankbarkeit, stille Loyalität und ganz viel Liebe . &; Vielleicht darf Nanuk seinen Lebensabend schon bald in einem warmen Körbchen bei Menschen verbringen, die ihm noch einmal zeigen, wie schön ein Zuhause sein kann. Bei ernsthaftem Interesse vereinbaren wir gerne einen Kennenlern-Termin unter Telefonnummer .

About Nanuk

What life with Nanuk looks like

Nanuk is a senior husky dog waiting at Wally-Bangert-Tierheim Lohr am Main in Germany.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇩🇪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 Nanuk, answered.

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