Oscar

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Puppy · 7 months

Bright eyes and legs reaching for the sky – OSCAR is ready for his very first real home! 🍀 OSCAR – a cheerful fellow on long legs: a friendly puppy boy looking for his big chance at happiness The cheerful OSCAR has been waiting at the municipal animal shelter since May 2026 for his people. At just 5 months old (born approx. 04/2026), he came to the shelter as a tiny little fellow. Despite the gloomy everyday life at the shelter, this young man has kept his charming joy for life completely intact and wins everyone over with his open smile. In appearance, OSCAR is a real eye-catcher: his short coat glows in a delicate cream-white with elegant beige markings on his back. With his light nose, loyal brown eyes, and long legs, he looks very refined. He is currently in the middle of growing. Because of his long legs and large paws, he is expected to become a medium to large dog (approx. 55–60 cm shoulder height) as an adult. In character, OSCAR is entirely open, sociable, and people-oriented. He really enjoys attention and shows his best side with the caregivers. A great plus: walking on the leash already works surprisingly well for his young age! Still, the young male will naturally need to calmly learn the rest of the basics of dog life in his new home. With other dogs, OSCAR is completely social, tolerant, and easygoing at the shelter. After a positive pre-screening, OSCAR travels vaccinated, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport to his new home. He is still too young to be neutered. Very friendly, social, people-oriented ✓ Experienced dog people ✓ Happy to join another dog ✓ Would like to live in the countryside – No small children in the household – No urban environment We know nothing about his past. Help Oscar find a home – share this with your friends ❤️

Fröhlicher Blick und Beine bis zum Himmel – OSCAR ist bereit für sein erstes echtes Zuhause! 🍀 OSCAR – Strahlemann auf langen Beinen: Aufgeschlossener Welpenjunge sucht sein großes Glück Der fröhliche OSCAR wartet seit Mai 2026 im städtischen Tierheim auf seine Menschen. Mit seinen gerade einmal 5 Monaten (geboren ca. 04/2026) kam er schon als klitzekleiner Zwerg in den Shelter. Trotz des tristen Tierheim-Alltags hat sich der junge Mann seine bezaubernde Lebensfreude komplett bewahrt und verzaubert jeden mit seinem offenen Lächeln. Optisch ist OSCAR ein richtiger Hingucker: Sein kurzes Fell leuchtet in einem zarten Cremeweiß mit eleganten beigefarbenen Abzeichen auf dem Rücken. Mit seiner hellen Nase, den treuen braunen Augen und seinen langen Beinen wirkt er sehr edel. Aktuell befindet er sich voll im Wachstum. Aufgrund seiner langen Läufe und großen Pfoten wird er ausgewachsen voraussichtlich ein mittelgroßer bis großer Hund (ca. 55–60 cm Schulterhöhe) werden. Charakterlich zeigt sich OSCAR rundum aufgeschlossen, kontaktfreudig und menschenbezogen. Er genießt Aufmerksamkeit sehr und zeigt sich im Umgang mit den Pflegern von seiner besten Seite. Ein toller Pluspunkt: Das Gehen an der Leine klappt für sein junges Alter bereits erstaunlich gut! Dennoch muss der junge Rüde das restliche Hunde-Einmaleins im neuen Zuhause natürlich noch in Ruhe lernen. Mit anderen Hunden zeigt sich OSCAR im Tierheim absolut sozial, verträglich und unkompliziert. OSCAR reist nach positiver Vorkontrolle geimpft, gechippt und mit EU-Heimtierausweis in sein neues Zuhause. Für eine Kastration ist er aktuell noch zu jung. Sehr freundlich, sozial, menschenbezogen ✓ Erfahrene Hundemenschen ✓ Gerne zu einem weiteren Hund ✓ Möchte ländlich leben - Keine kleinen Kinder im Haushalt - Kein städtisches Umfeld Über seine Vorgeschichte ist uns nichts bekannt. Hilf Oscar, ein Zuhause zu finden - teile dies mit deinen Freunden ❤️

About Oscar

What life with Oscar looks like

Oscar is a medium-sized puppy mixed breed dog waiting at Hundsrücker Tierschutz gUG in Germany.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇩🇪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 Oscar, answered.

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