How do I contact the shelter about Odin?

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

Can I adopt Odin if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Göppingen 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 Odin 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 Odin 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 Göppingen early rather than rehoming privately; they know Odin 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.

Odin

Mixed Breed · Male

Mixed breed * 2014 – beige – male – neutered – small – ca. 7 kg not compatible with children: no, compatible with cats: unknown, suitable as a second dog: yes, in the animal shelter since: 12/2019 Hello, I am Odin. I came from a private household, to be more specific, a family. It turned out that I don’t want to be a family dog. I just don’t feel comfortable there and many things overwhelmed me, but the people at first didn’t quite notice that. I am looking for a place without children. I also get along with other dogs if the chemistry is right. I would like to please the person very much and do everything right, but sometimes it’s a bit difficult for me. I also have a small stubborn streak. To get to know me, you need a lot of patience because my trust has to be earned. Touching is only allowed if I allow it. If I don’t like it, I make that clear. Through my background, I have become a bit skeptical towards people and am therefore something special. So they say here. If you have a lot of patience, time, empathy, and understanding, paired with love but also consistency and experience with special dogs, then feel free to contact the animal shelter and we can see if I am your special dog.

Mischling * 2014 – beige – männlich – kastriert – klein – ca. 7 kg verträglich mit Kindern: nein verträglich mit Katzen: unbekannt als Zweithund geeignet: ja im Tierheim seit: 12/2019 Hallo, ich bin Odin. Ich komme aus einem Privathaushalt, besser gesagt, aus einer Familie. Dort hat sich herausgestellt, dass ich kein Familienhund sein möchte. Ich fühle mich da einfach nicht wohl und vieles hat mich überfordert, nur haben das die Menschen anfangs nicht ganz wahrgenommen. Ich suche für mich ein Plätzchen ohne Kinder. Mit anderen Hunden verstehe ich mich auch, wenn die Sympathie stimmt. Ich möchte dem Menschen sehr gerne gefallen und alles richtig machen, nur manchmal fällt mir das ein bisschen schwer. Ich habe nämlich auch eine kleinen Dickkopf. Um mich kennen zu lernen brauchst du viel Geduld, denn mein Vertrauen muss man sich erarbeiten. Anfassen geht nur, wenn ich das zulassen möchte. Mag ich das nicht, zeige ich dies deutlich. Durch meine Vorgeschichte bin ich etwas skeptisch gegenüber Menschen geworden und bin deswegen etwas ganz besonderes. So sagen sie das zumindest hier. Wenn du also viel Geduld, Zeit, Einfühlungsvermögen und Verständnis hast, gepaart mit Liebe aber auch Konsequenz und Erfahrung mit besonderen Hunden, dann melde dich doch gerne Mal im Tierheim und wir können schauen ob ich dein besonderer Hund bin. Dein Odin Weitere Bilder und Videos: ngg_shortcode_7_placeholder Noch mehr Hunde finden Sie in der Rubrik Hunde .

About Odin

What life with Odin looks like

Odin is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Göppingen in Göppingen.

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