How do I contact the shelter about Ness?

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

Can I adopt Ness if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierischgeholfen 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 Ness 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 Ness 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 Tierischgeholfen e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Ness 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.

Ness

Podenco · Male

Description Our Spanish animal welfare workers report: Ness was picked up by the police together with Kay roaming the streets. As they look so alike, it is assumed that they are brothers. As usual, they do not have a chip and no one was looking for them. Therefore, our Spanish colleagues were alerted, who picked up the two of them. Ness is a friendly young male dog in the best age. He is very interested in people, comes curious and wants to be always there, investigating everything with his small, fine nose. The affectionate Podenco also likes children, he always seeks contact with humans. Ness is a bit shyer than his brother Kay. Playing he finds great fun and long walks are the best! On the leash, Ness can already walk quite well and he also rides in the car nicely. He gets along very well with other dogs. The sweet Ness is a real gentleman and we wish very much that he soon finds a family that will give him a real home! Information about the Podenco Like most animals from abroad, Ness will also need to get used to life in the new home, as he knows neither large crowds of people nor the loud city traffic from Spain. But we are optimistic that he will quickly settle in. We wish him a nice home in a more rural environment, for example at the outskirts of the city, where he can enjoy nature with his people. We are looking for people who are willing to patiently and lovingly accustom this wonderful companion to life and the new home.

Beschreibung Unsere spanischen Tierschützer berichten: Ness wurde zusammen mit Kay von der Polizei herumirrend auf der Straße aufgegriffen. Da sie sich so ähnlich sehen, ist davon auszugehen, dass sie Brüder sind. Wie so oft haben sie keinen Chip und niemand suchte nach ihnen. Also wurden unsere spanischen Kollegen alarmiert, die die Beiden abholten.Ness ist ein freundlicher junger Rüde im besten Alter. Er ist sehr an Menschen interessiert, kommt neugierig und möchte gerne immer dabei sein und alles mit seiner kleinen, feinen Nase untersuchen. Kinder mag der liebe Podenco auch gerne, er sucht immer den Kontakt zum Menschen. Ness ist etwas schüchterner als sein Bruder Kay. Spielen findet er aber klasse und ausgiebige Spaziergänge sind das aller Beste! An der Leine kann Ness schon ganz gut laufen und im Auto fährt er auch brav mit. Mit anderen Hunden kommt er sehr gut klar.Der süße Ness ist ein ganz lieber Kerl und wir wünschen uns sehr, dass er bald eine Familie findet, die ihm ein richtiges Zuhause schenkt! Informationen zum Podenco Wie bei den meisten Tieren aus dem Ausland wird auch Ness sich erst an das Leben im neuen Zuhause gewöhnen müssen, kennt er doch aus Spanien weder große Menschenmengen noch den lauten Autoverkehr einer Stadt. Aber wir sind zuversichtlich, dass er sich schnell einleben wird. Wir wünschen uns für ihn ein schönes Zuhause in einer eher ländlichen Umgebung, zum Beispiel am Stadtrand, in dem er mit seinen Menschen die Natur genießen kann. Wir suchen Menschen, die bereit sind diesen tollen Begleiter mit Geduld und auf liebevolle Weise an das Leben und das neue Zuhause zu gewöhnen.

About Ness

What life with Ness looks like

Ness is a large adult podenco dog waiting at Tierischgeholfen e.V. in Germany.

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