Niki

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 2 years

Niki – a dog who will turn your life upside down → Breed: mixed breed → Sex: male → Born: 04/2024 → Size / Weight: 52 cm / 22 kg → Neutered: yes → Vaccinated: yes → Identification: Chip → Compatible with: male dogs and female dogs → Incompatible with: N/A → Sponsorships possible: yes Description: Niki is a young male dog ready to see the world as his adventure playground. He is funny, full of energy and strength, and is looking for active, sporty people who enjoy movement, nature, sniffing, adventures, and everything that's fun. Niki still has a lot of mischief on his mind and is a real clown who loves to make silly jokes and bring laughter to his family. But when it comes to cuddling, he is a huge cuddly bear who loves to snuggle up to his people and show affection. His light beige fur with a slight golden sheen looks elegant and stylish. Niki gets along well with his fellow animals by sympathy, but it would be best if he had a home without another dog so he can settle in peacefully. He needs a family willing to invest time and effort into his training and socialization to make him a good family dog. A family with older children would be ideal, as they are steady and responsible enough to give Niki the necessary structure and love. {youtube} Note:

Niki – ein Hund der dein Leben auf den Kopf stellt → Rasse: Mischling → Geschlecht: männlich→ Geboren: 04/2024 → Grösse / Gewicht: 52 cm / 22 kg→ Kastriert: ja→ Geimpft: ja→ Kennzeichnung: Chip→ Verträglich mit: Rüden und Hündinnen→ Unverträglich mit: k.A.→ Patenschaften möglich: ja Beschreibung: Niki ist ein junger Rüde, der bereit ist, die Welt als seinen Abenteuerspielplatz anzusehen. Er ist lustig, voller Energie und Kraft und sucht nach aktiven, sportlichen Menschen, die Spaß an Bewegung, Natur, Schnüffeln, Abenteuern und allem, was Spaß macht, haben. Niki hat noch viel Blödsinn im Kopf und ist ein richtiger Clown, der gerne Unsinn macht und seine Familie zum Lachen bringt. Aber wenn es um Kuscheln geht, ist er ein riesiger Schmusebär, der sich gerne an seine Menschen kuschelt und Liebe und Zuneigung zeigt. Sein hellbeiges Fell mit einem leicht goldenen Schimmer wirkt elegant und stylisch. Niki ist mit seinen Artgenossen nach Sympathie verträglich, aber es wäre am besten, wenn er ein Zuhause ohne weiteren Hund hätte, damit er sich in Ruhe einleben kann. Er benötigt eine Familie, die bereit ist, Zeit und Mühe in seine Erziehung und Sozialisierung zu investieren und ihn zu einem guten Familienhund macht, Eine Familie mit älteren Kindern wäre ideal, da sie standhaft und verantwortungsbewusst genug sind, um Niki die notwendige Struktur und Liebe zu geben. {youtube} Hinweis:Dieses Tier befindet sich noch im Ausland und sucht einen Pflege-

About Niki

What life with Niki looks like

Niki is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein Franz von Assisi 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 Niki, answered.

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