Paul

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 6 years

Paul has arrived with three other dogs due to financial reasons from his owner. Paul is a very nice dog who still needs some training. He gets along well with female dogs, but with male dogs, it depends on their chemistry. Children in the new home should already be a bit older. We still need to practice keeping Paul alone, as he is house-trained. Since he has lived with other dogs before, he would definitely be happy with a spayed female dog in the new home, but that is not a requirement. Who will give Paul a home?

DE·Show original

Paul ist aus finanziellen Gründen des Besitzers mit drei anderen Hunden bei uns gelandet. Paul ist ein sehr netter Hund, der vielleicht noch etwas Erziehung benötigt. Paul mag alle Menschen und hat auch mit Kindern vermutlich kein Problem. An der Leine kann es sein, dass er sich mal etwas aufregt, beruhigt sich aber schnell. Alleine bleiben muss man mit Paul noch üben, stubenrein ist er. Bei anderen Hunden entscheidet die Sympathie, Hündinnen findet er besser als Rüden. Paul ist ein wahnsinnig charmanter und netter Hund. Wer gibt ihm endlich ein Zuhause?

About Paul

What life with Paul looks like

Paul is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Nürnberg in Nuremberg.

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 Paul, answered.

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