How do I contact the shelter about Pascha?

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

Can I adopt Pascha if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Wiesbaden 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 Pascha 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 Pascha 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 Wiesbaden early rather than rehoming privately; they know Pascha 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.

Adopt Pascha

Jack Russell Terrier · Male · Senior · 14 years

Pascha learned in his previous home that he could assert himself against humans by using his teeth. So, four years ago, at the age of ten, he came to the animal shelter after a biting incident. Physically, Pascha has grown older, but in his enclosure, he still shows his wild side. Outside his enclosure, he loves walks and mental stimulation. Pascha is clever, knows many tricks, and masters the basic commands. Once he has developed trust with his humans, he wants to please and likes to work. Generally, Pascha gets along well with female dogs, but his attitude towards male dogs depends on their mutual liking. Now, Pascha is looking for a quiet home for his golden years – with experienced people who respect his quirks, give him a stable structure, and take him seriously. He no longer needs a round-the-clock upbringing but needs people with understanding who can lead him confidently without trying to bend him.

Read original (de)

Pascha hat in seinem früheren Zuhause gelernt, dass er sich unter Einsatz seiner Zähne gegen den Menschen durchsetzen kann. So kam er vor vier Jahren – im Alter von zehn Jahren – nach einem Beißvorfall ins Tierheim. Inzwischen ist Pascha körperlich älter geworden, doch in seinem Zwinger zeigt er noch immer seine wilde Seite. Außerhalb seines Zwingers liebt er Spaziergänge und geistige Beschäftigung. Pascha ist clever, kennt viele Tricks und beherrscht die Grundkommandos. Hat er Vertrauen zu seinen Menschen gefasst, möchte er gefallen und arbeitet gern mit. Mit Hündinnen ist Pascha in der Regel gut verträglich, bei Rüden entscheidet die Sympathie. Pascha sucht nun ein ruhiges Zuhause für seinen Lebensabend – bei erfahrenen Menschen, die seine Eigenheiten respektieren, ihm einen stabilen Rahmen geben und ihn ernst nehmen. Er braucht keine Rundumerziehung mehr, sondern Menschen mit Sachverstand, die ihn souverän führen, ohne ihn verbiegen zu wollen.

About Pascha

What life with Pascha looks like

Pascha is a medium-sized senior jack russell terrier dog waiting at Tierheim Wiesbaden in Wiesbaden.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

Note from the shelter: History of biting incidents, requires special permit, needs experienced handlers who understand his behavioral issues

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.
