Oskar

English Bulldog · Male · Adult · 8 years

Oskar wurde aus tierschutzrechtlichen Gründen sichergestellt - nun sind wir auf der Suche nach einem neuen Zuhause für unseren Senior. Oskar ist gerne mit seinen Menschen zusammen unterwegs. Er ist ein gestandener, souveräner Herr, der bereits einiges lernen durfte und sich bei seinen Gassigehenden sehr angenehm zeigt. Er kann vermutlich nicht gut alleine sein und reagiert im Tierheim mit starkem Stress und anhaltendem Bellen auf die Einsamkeit. Dies ist ein wichtiger Punkt, der in einem neuen Zuhause beachtet werden muss. Oskar hat ein „Krüppelohr“, das unbedingt regelmäßiger Reinigung und Pflege bedarf. Zudem hatte er hatte einen Hodentumor, der entfernt werden konnte. In Zukunft sind deshalb regelmäßige tierärztliche Kontrollen erforderlich. Im Zuge der OP wurde Oskar kastriert. Obwohl Oskar nicht zur Gruppe der Kategorie-1-Hunde in Hamburg gehört, hat er doch eine phänotypische Ähnlichkeit. Daher wird er nur außerhalb Hamburgs vermittelt, um zukünftig Probleme zu vermeiden. Möchten Sie unserem Opi auf seine alten Tage noch ein fürsorgliches Zuhause schenken? Dann melden Sie sich bitte mit ausgefüllter Selbstauskunft unter (Für die Adresse JavaScript anschalten) 11.06.2026 (MSt)

About Oskar

What life with Oskar looks like

Oskar is a large adult english bulldog dog waiting at Hamburger Tierschutzverein in Hamburg.

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 Oskar, answered.

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