NESTOR

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 13 years

NESTOR - last shot already up - male, Tervuren mix, 13 yrs, born late March 2013, vaccinated, chipped, neutered, EU passport. - Waiting in France! - Another call from the vet. An old Tervueren mix was brought to him for euthanasia, he's so old. He is indeed 13 years old at the end of March, but can that be a reason to euthanize a friendly dog? The vet refused and informed us, so NESTOR was not euthanized but neutered and had his tartar removed. His blood test also shows he's still in good shape. Currently, he has to endure in a small unheated kennel, but we hope to find people who can offer him a suitable home. It should be on one level and his coat shows he's been living outside frequently. This should change, he won't be placed in outdoor housing, but a overheated apartment won't be the right home either. We want to show NESTOR that there are also responsible people who appreciate and love such a furry creature.

Für NESTOR - war die letzte Spritze schon aufgezogen - Rüde, Tervuren-Mix, 13 J., geb. Ende März 2013, geimpft, gechippt, kastriert, EU-Paß. - Wartet in Frankreich ! - Wieder mal ein Anruf vom Tierarzt. Ein alter Tervueren-Mischling wurde ihm gebracht zum Einschläfern, er sei doch schon alt. Es ist richtig, er wird Ende März 13 Jahre alt, aber kann das ein Grund sein, einen freundlichen Hund einzuschläfern ? Der Tierarzt hat sich geweigert, sondern uns informiert und so wurde NESTOR nicht eingeschläfert, sondern kastriert und Zahnstein entfernt. Auch das Blutbild zeigt, dass er noch richtig gut drauf ist. Im Moment muss er leider in einem kleinen unbeheizten Zwinger ausharren, aber wir hoffen inständig, dass wir Menschen finden, die ihm ein passendes Zuhause bieten. Es sollte ebenerdig sein und seinem Fell sieht man an, dass er häufig draußen leben musste. Das soll sich jetzt allerdings ändern, er wird nicht in Außenhaltung vermittelt, aber eine überheizte Wohnung wird auch nicht das passende Zuhause sein. Wir möchte NESTOR zeigen, dass es auch verantwortungsbewusste Menschen gibt, die ein solch haariges Wesen schätzen und lieben. Mehr Info u.

About NESTOR

What life with NESTOR looks like

NESTOR is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at Tier-Not-Hilfe 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 NESTOR, answered.

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