Patenhund * Rosco

Mixed Breed · Male

Despite many applicants, we searched a long time for the right home for Rosco. Finally, it was time. The new place would have been ideal, the new owners very careful and perfectly suited. Unfortunately, the adoption was delayed due to Corona. Rosco had to be urgently taken to the animal clinic. There, a serious heart rhythm disorder was diagnosed, which means absolute rest and no excitement for him in the future - anything else would be fatal! Rosco is a very likable and open male dog who approaches people, but has Weimaraner characteristics. That means he needs certain rules. We hope for people who have a heart for this old Weimaraner and can help us with the regular high veterinary and medical costs. Canceled events and the current situation contribute to these exceptional expenses flying around our ears. We simply can't do it alone.

Trotz vieler Bewerber haben wir lange für Rosco das passende Zuhause gesucht. Endlich war es soweit. Der neue Platz wäre ideal gewesen, die neuen Besitzer sehr gewissenhaft und bestens geeignet. Leider hat sich die Übernahme Corona bedingt verzögert. Rosco musste plötzlich notfallmäßig in die Tierklinik gebracht werden. Dort wurde eine schwere Herz-Rythmus-Störung festgestellt, die für ihn in Zukunft absolute Ruhe und keinerlei Aufregung bedeutet – alles andere wäre tödlich! Rosco ist ein sehr liebenswerter und aufgeschlossener Rüde, der auf Menschen zugeht, jedoch mit Weimaraner-Eigenschaften. Das heißt er braucht gewisse Regeln. Wir hoffen auf Menschen, die ein Herz für diesen alten Weimaraner haben und uns bei den regelmäßigen hohen Tierarzt- und Medizinkosten helfen. Ausbleibende Veranstaltungen und die aktuelle Lage trägt dazu bei, dass uns solche überdurchschnittlichen Ausgaben derzeit um die Ohren fliegen. Wir schaffen es einfach nicht alleine.

About Patenhund * Rosco

What life with Patenhund * Rosco looks like

Patenhund * Rosco is a 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Patenhund * Rosco, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Patenhund * Rosco?
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 Patenhund * Rosco on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Patenhund * Rosco 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 Patenhund * Rosco 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 Patenhund * Rosco 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 Patenhund * Rosco 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.
