Oscar

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy

Name: Oscar3 Born: December 2020 Health: vaccinated, microchipped, neutered. Breed: Herdenschutzhund-mix Location: foster home in 63110 Rodgau Oscar – a sensitive herding dog finally seeks his forever home Oscar, five years old, is a herding dog with all the typical traits of his breed – and a heart bigger than his sturdy body. He was brought to Germany from Greece with his siblings and found a home initially. But after four and a half years, the family unexpectedly decided to give him back. Now, Oscar lives in a foster home – and here, his potential truly shines. For the first time in his life, he receives professional dog training. It becomes clear that he reacts incredibly well to body language and makes significant progress in just the first hours. Oscar is a dog who loves his people. He actively seeks their proximity, is friendly, and enjoys every pat once he has built trust. Especially with his trusted people, he shows an incredible clinginess and cuddliness. At the same time, he is a sensitive dog: - New situations make him initially insecure - Unknown noises or unfamiliar environments unsettle him - However, with some time, he visibly warms up Then, Oscar shows his cheerful, playful nature – and proves that a five-year-old can still have plenty of mischief in his head. He regularly brings his people to a smile. As a true herding dog, Oscar is territorial and keeps a watchful eye on his home. With clear structures, confident leadership, and a person who gives him security, he develops into a loyal and faithful companion. In a recent blood test, Oscar was tested for Mediterranean diseases. These were negative, and he is in perfect health. When he was given back by his family, he was noticeably too thin and has now developed into a wonderful, neutered male dog. Oscar seeks people who give him: - Security and orientation - confident, calm, and clear leadership - time to build trust - respect for his sensitivity - an appreciation for his closeness and affection Those who give Oscar cuddles get an attached, sensitive, and at the same time loyal friend for life. ### ❗ *Urgent: Oscar needs a home* The current foster home in 63110 Rodgau can only keep him until July. If we do not find a permanent home or a new foster home by then, Oscar must be sent back to the Greek animal shelter – a step that would break his heart after all the progress and his sensitive nature. Oscar deserves a second chance. If you want to give a special dog a home – a dog who loves closeness, wants to learn, and gives you his whole heart – then Oscar is exactly the right one. He is waiting to finally arrive. For more info/videos or an informal meet-and-greet, please contact or email:

Oscar, fünf Jahre alt, hat ein Herz, das größer ist als sein kräftiger Körper. Er ist sehr verschmust und liebt Streicheleinheiten besonders von Kindern, aber auch Männern und Fremden gegenüber ist er freundlich.Er wurde gemeinsam mit seinen Geschwistern aus Griechenland nach Deutschland gebracht und fand zunächst ein Zuhause. Doch nach viereinhalb Jahren entschied sich die Familie unerwartet, ihn wieder abzugeben. Nun lebt Oscar in einer Pflegestelle – und genau hier zeigt sich, wie viel Potenzial in ihm steckt. Das erste Mal in seinem Leben erhält er professionelles Hundetraining, da er bei der Begegnung an der Leine mit anderen Hunden teilweise bellt. Hier zeigt sich, dass er unglaublich gut auf Körpersprache reagiert und schon in den ersten Stunden große Fortschritte gemacht hat. An den meisten Hunden kann er nun schon ganz entspannt vorbeilaufen und konzentriert sich auf seine Person/Futter. Allerdings sollte weiter mit ihm trainiert werden. Es wird deshalb auf eine Schutzgebühr verzichtet und das Geld soll in Trainerstunden investiert werden.Oscar ist ein Hund, der seine Menschen liebt.Er sucht aktiv ihre Nähe, ist zutraulich und genießt jede Streicheleinheit. Besonders bei seinen Bezugspersonen zeigt er sich unglaublich anhänglich und verschmust.Oscar hat ein fröhliches, verspieltes Wesen – und beweist, dass auch ein Fünfjähriger noch jede Menge Flausen im Kopf haben kann.

About Oscar

What life with Oscar looks like

Oscar is a large puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Hundesuche Tiere in Not Bayern 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. 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 Oscar, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Oscar?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Hundesuche Tiere in Not Bayern 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 — Hundesuche Tiere in Not Bayern 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 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 Hundesuche Tiere in Not Bayern 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.
