How do I contact the shelter about Osio?

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

Can I adopt Osio if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierhilfe Franken 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 Osio 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 Osio 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 Tierhilfe Franken e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Osio 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.

Osio

Mixed Breed · Unknown

Osio – our magical Dackel pup Osio is a charming and cheerful puppy who instantly puts a smile on anyone’s face. He is very well socialized and gets along famously with (almost) all dogs and people. Osio is an intelligent pup with a quick learning curve, though the Dackel head sometimes gets in the way. He already knows the small dog ABCs, and attending some dog training classes would surely be helpful and bring a lot of joy to the dog dad. Rassebedingt, Osio is hunting-motivated, so cats and small pets should not live in his new home. He needs regular walks and enjoys the daily long walks, being adventurous and playful. The garden at his foster home is a favorite, where he loves to play with his doggy friends or the foster parent before contentedly snuggling up on the couch. Also, the little pup has excellent guard dog skills and reliably alerts the household to visitors and anything that seems suspicious. The heart of his foster parent has been conquered by Osio. Where are the Dackel fans or those who want to become one? Osio is looking forward to meeting his new family.

Osio – unser zauberhafter Dackelbub Osio ist ein liebenswerter und fröhlicher Hundebub, der den Menschen sofort ein Lächeln ins Gesicht zaubert. Er ist sehr gut sozialisiert und versteht sich bestens mit (fast) allen Hunden und Menschen. Osio ist ein intelligenter Hund mit schneller Auffassungsgabe, auch wenn der Dackelkopf immer wieder mal durchkommt. Das kleine Hunde-ABC beherrscht er bereits, zum Erlangen des großen wäre der Besuch einer Hundeschule sicher hilfreich und würde dem Hundemann bestimmt viel Freude bereiten. Rassebedingt ist Osio jagdlich motiviert, daher sollten Katzen und Kleintiere nicht im neuen Zuhause leben. Er benötigt regelmäßig Auslauf und genießt die täglichen langen Spaziergänge, ist unternehmungslustig und verspielt. Den Garten auf seiner Pflegestelle genießt er sehr, am liebsten spielt er dort mit seinen Hundefreunden oder mit dem Pflegefrauchen, bevor es zufrieden zum Kuscheln auf die Couch geht. Auch hat der kleine Hundemann ausgezeichnete Fähigkeiten als Wachhund und meldet Besucher und alles, was ihm verdächtig erscheint, zuverlässig. Das Herz seines Pflegefrauchens hat Osio im Sturm erobert. Wo sind nun die Dackelfans oder die, die es werden möchten? Osio freut sich schon auf ein Kennenlernen.

About Osio

What life with Osio looks like

Osio is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierhilfe Franken e.V. in Lauf.

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.
