How do I contact the shelter about Odin?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Paderborn 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 Paderborn 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 Paderborn 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 · Unknown · Adult · 4 years

Bulldog mix Odin was born around 2022. He arrived as a so-called found dog on September 25. Odin was initially a bit skeptical. After getting to know us better, however, he quickly developed trust. He shows a very friendly and cuddly side towards people. But Odin has a strong hunting instinct and reacts to movement stimuli. Especially when it comes to toys. But also with small animals, cats, and small dogs, caution is advised. There is definitely a need for training. With suitable fellow animals, he plays exuberantly and appropriately. If he gets too wild, he tends to retreat. On the leash, he is well-controlled. He also knows some basic commands. Future owners must still be able to handle the little dynamo. We are looking for a childless household with experienced dog lovers for Odin.

DE·Show original

Bulldoggenmischling Odin ist ca.2022 geboren. Er kam als angeblicher Fundhund am 16.09 25 zu uns. Odin zeigte sich anfangs etwas skeptisch. Nach näherem kennenlernen, fasste er aber sofort Vertrauen zu uns. Dem Menschen gegenüber zeigt er sich sehr zugewandt und kuschelig. Aber Odin hat einen starken Jagdinstinkt und reagiert auf Bewegungsreize. Besonders auch in Bezug auf Spielzeug. Aber auch bei Kleintieren, Katzen und kleinen Hunden ist Vorsicht geboten.Da besteht auf jeden Fall Trainingsbedarf. Mit passenden Artgenossen tobt er ausgelassen und angemessen. Wird ihm was zu wild geht er eher zurück. An der Leine lässt er sich gut führen. Er kennt auch daraus einige Grundkommandos. Zukünftige Besitzer müssen trotzdem in der Lage sein, die kleine Dampfwalze auch halten zu können. Für Odin suchen wir einen kinderlosen Haushalt bei erfahrenen Hundefreunden.

About Odin

What life with Odin looks like

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

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.
