Adopt Pablo

Chihuahua · Male · Adult · 8 years

Hey folks, Pablo here! I'm an active, mostly good-natured mix of Chihuahua and Jack Russell Terrier and ended up at the animal shelter after a seizure. My caretakers, trainers, and walk leaders keep me occupied as best they can, but I often find myself bored here. I therefore wish for a new home with people who will spend a lot of time with me, physically and mentally challenge me, and keep me engaged. What activities? That's up to you if you're interested in me. I'm happy to learn and quickly pick up new tricks, and I'm always ready for any activity. Because I have so much energy, waiting and enduring is still a bit of a challenge for me. But I train almost daily and am getting better at it. My new people should definitely keep that in mind. Clear rules and consequences are also important when dealing with me. Even though I'm small, I like to make my own rules if no one else does. Unfortunately, this didn't work out well in my old home, leading to a bite incident with a child. This silly incident has now landed me with a muzzle and leash requirement, which is being re-evaluated. Maybe I'll have some luck and be allowed to run around without these accessories again. Whether with or without a muzzle, you can have a lot of fun with me. And I'd rather have fun without other dogs – at least without male dogs. I don't like them in my vicinity. Female dogs, however, I sometimes like a little too much and can be a bit of a nuisance to. Otherwise, I'm rather uncomplicated and looking forward to new adventures. Maybe with you? I would be happy to meet you!

Hey Leute, Pablo hier! Ich bin ein aktiver, meist gut gelaunter Mix aus Chihuahua und Jack Russel Terrier und bin nach einer Beschlagnahmung hier im Tierheim gelandet. Meine Pfleger, Trainer und Gassigänger beschäftigen mich zwar so gut es geht, dennoch ist mir hier oft langweilig. Ich wünsche mir daher ein neues Zuhause mit Menschen, die viel Zeit mit mir verbringen, mich körperlich und geistig gut auslasten und fordern. Womit? Das bleibt dir überlassen, wenn du dich für mich interessierst. Ich apportiere für mein Leben gern, lerne gerne und schnell neue Tricks und bin auch sonst für jede Aktivität zu haben. Weil ich so viel Energie habe, fällt mir das Warten und Aushalten noch etwas schwer. Ich trainiere aber fast täglich und werde auch immer besser darin. Meine neuen Menschen sollten hier aber auf jeden Fall dranbleiben. Klare Regeln und Konsequenz sind im Umgang mit mir außerdem wichtig. Denn auch wenn ich klein bin, mache ich gern meine eigenen Regeln, wenn man mir keine vorgibt. In meinem alten Zuhause lief das leider nicht so gut, weshalb es zu einem Beißvorfall mit einem Kind kam. Dieser dumme Vorfall hat mir nun eine Maulkorb- und Leinenpflicht eingehandelt, welche aber noch mal neu geprüft wird. Vielleicht habe ich Glück und darf bald wieder ohne diese Accessoires herumlaufen. Ob mit oder ohne Maulkorb, mit mir kannst du auf jeden Fall viel Spaß haben. Und das am liebsten ohne andere Hunde – zumindest ohne Rüden. Die habe ich nämlich nicht gern in meiner Nähe. Hündinnen habe ich manchmal etwas zu gern und gehe ihnen auf die Nerven. Ansonsten bin ich recht unkompliziert und freue mich auf neue Abenteuer. Vielleicht zusammen mit dir? Ich würde mich freuen, dich kennenzulernen! Euer Pablo

About Pablo

What life with Pablo looks like

Pablo is a small adult chihuahua dog waiting at Tierheim u. Tierschutzverein Kreis Ahrweiler e.V. / Tierheim Remagen. in Remagen.

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 Pablo, answered.

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