Oskar

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

Animal ID This is me! Interested in meeting? Name: Oskar Breed: mixed breed Gender: male Weight: 30 Age: 2021 In animal shelter since: 03.06.2024 Oskar is a beautiful male dog who ended up in the animal shelter as a stray. He was found tied to the tracks at Kasseler Hauptbahnhof with a muzzle on by his irresponsible owners. How cowardly can a person be to do something like this to a dog for which they have taken responsibility? Oskar exhibits problematic behavior around humans and animals, but this does not justify abandoning him like this. Someone obviously once took responsibility for Oskar and clearly does not want to carry it anymore. Unfortunately, we do not know his background and have to figure out how to manage another problem dog somehow.

Tierausweis Das bin ich! Lust auf ein Treffen? Name: Oskar Rasse: Mischling Geschlecht: männlich Gewicht: 30 Alter: 2021 Im Tierheim seit: 03.06.2024 Oskar ist ein bildschöner Rüde, der als Fundhund im Tierheim gelandet ist. Er wurde von seinen verantwortungslosen Besitzern mit Maulkorb an den Gleisen am Kasseler Hauptbahnhof angebunden. Wie feige muss Mensch eigentlich sein, um seinem Hund, für den man ja schließlich die Verantwortung übernommen hat, so etwas anzutun? Oskar zeigt problematisches Verhalten im Umgang mit Mensch und Tier, aber das rechtfertigt in keinster Weise, sich seiner so zu entledigen. Irgendjemand hat ja schließlich irgendwann einmal die Verantwortung für Oskar übernommen und will sie offensichtlich nicht weiter tragen. Leider kennen wir die Vorgeschichte nicht und müssen schauen, wie wir mit einem weiteren Problemhund irgendwie klarkommen. Eine

About Oskar

What life with Oskar looks like

Oskar is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Name in Kassel.

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.

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. Name 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 — Name 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 Name 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.
