Odie

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 2 years

Odie was found in Oberhausen. The friendly male dog was initially suspicious of us for the first few days, but quickly became more trusting with treats. At first, he was very impressed by everything, but is slowly asserting his large head and likes to give other dogs a hard time. Odie is showing a food resource issue at the animal shelter that needs to be addressed. He still needs a lot of training.

DE·Show original

Odie wurde in Oberhausen gefunden. De nette Rüde war uns gegenüber die ersten Tage misstrauisch, das ändert sich durch Bestechung mit Leckerlis schnell. Anfangs war er noch von allem sehr beeindruckt, versucht aber langsam seinen dick Kopf durchzusetzen und versucht gerne mal die anderen Hunde anzupöbeln. Odie zeigt hier im Tierheim ein Futter Ressourcen Problem an dem gearbeitet werden muss. Er braucht noch einiges an Erziehung. Wir vermitteln ihn nicht zu Kindern

About Odie

What life with Odie looks like

Odie is a extra-large young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Mülheim in Mülheim.

An young 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Odie, answered.

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