Adopt Osco ( wird leider vermisst :( )

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 4 years

Name: Osco Born: ca. 2022 Gender: likely male dog (will be updated upon arrival at his foster home) Breed: mixed breed Size: ca. 55 cm Foster home: Osco is still with our animal protection friends. However, he has already found a great foster home in the Wuppertal area and is expected to arrive there around mid-August. Regarding the age given here, it often refers to estimated values, as we do not always know the exact age. Other information, such as the size, is subjective. The handsome (likely) male dog is currently living in a large Romanian animal shelter. The local volunteer describes him as follows: The wonderful Osco had curled up in the farthest corner of the kennel and would have preferred to be invisible. To make matters worse, a female dog had settled on him, so our movement radius was maximally restricted during our visit. We could then gently stroke him, but it was clear that he endured the rare touches rather than enjoyed them. The offered treats were also not accepted, as the dog was still too intimidated by the eerie shelter atmosphere. A very touching encounter, so we hope that poor Osco does not have to stay in the shelter for too long. We are looking for people who are willing to take on the adventure of an international dog and give him a second chance at a responsible home. If you are interested in this great dog, please fill out the Referral Form or call us at the phone number provided. Here are a few pictures. For enlargement, please click on an image.

Name Osco Geboren ca. 2022 Geschlecht vermutlich Rüde (wird bei Ankunft auf seiner Pflegestelle aktualisiert) Rasse Mischling Größe ca. 55 cm Pflegestelle Osco befindet sich noch bei unseren Tierschutzfreunden. Er hat aber bereits eine tolle Pflegestelle im Raum Wuppertal gefunden und wird voraussichtlich Mitte August dort ankommen. Bei den hier angebenen Daten zum Alter handelt es sich oftmals um geschätzte Werte, da wir das genaue Alter nicht immer kennen. Andere Angaben wie z.B. die Größe sind Ansichtssache. der hübsche (vermutlich) Rüde lebt zur Zeit in einem großen rumänischen Tierheim. Die Volontäre vor Ort beschreiben ihn so: Der wunderschöne OSCO hatte sich im hintersten Eck des Kennels verkrochen und wäre am liebsten unsichtbar gewesen. Zu allem Übel hatte es sich auch noch eine Hündin auf ihm bequem gemacht, sodass während unserer Anwesenheit der Bewegungsradius maximal eingeschränkt war. Wir konnten ihn dann vorsichtig streicheln, wobei man jedoch merkte, dass er die seltenen Berührungen zwar über sich ergehen ließ, es aber nicht genießen konnte. Die angebotenen Leckerchen wurden ebenfalls nicht angenommen, war der Hund noch zu beeindruckt von der gruseligen Shelteratmosphäre. Eine sehr berührende Begegnung, sodass wir hoffen, dass der arme OSCO nicht zu lange im Shelter ausharren muss. Wir suchen Menschen, die sich auf das Abenteuer Auslandshund einlassen und ihm eine 2. Chance auf ein verantwortungsvolles Zuhause zu geben. Bei Interesse an diesem tollen Hund füllen Sie doch bitte das Formular Vermittlungsanfrage aus oder rufen uns an unter der Telefonnummer oder Hier ein paar Bilder.

About Osco ( wird leider vermisst :( )

What life with Osco ( wird leider vermisst :( ) looks like

Osco ( wird leider vermisst :( ) is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein Second Chance Dogs e.V. in Zornheim.

An 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 Osco ( wird leider vermisst :( ), answered.

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