Adopt Pepe

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 9 years

Pepe – ein Seelentröster, ein Begleiter der nichts verlangt und alles gibt → Rasse: Mischling → Geschlecht: männlich→ Geboren: 10/2016 → Grösse / Gewicht: 58 cm / 23 kg→ Kastriert: ja→ Geimpft: ja→ Kennzeichnung: Chip→ Verträglich mit: Rüden und Hündinnen→ Unverträglich mit: k.A.Beschreibung: Pepe gehört zu der Sorte Hund, die man eigentlich nicht beschreiben muss – fünf Minuten mit ihm reichen, und man versteht sofort, warum ihn alle mögen. Er versteht sich bestens mit anderen Hunden, läuft gut an der Leine und möchte vor allem eines: ganz nah bei seinen Menschen sein. Seine grauen Schläfen verraten zwar, dass er nicht mehr zu den Jungspunden gehört, aber Pepe sieht das ganz gelassen. Schließlich sind das keine Alterserscheinungen, sondern seine ganz persönliche „Lebenserfahrung in Silber“. Denn für sein Alter ist er noch erstaunlich fit, neugierig und voller Lebensfreude. Pepe liebt gemütliche Spaziergänge, bei denen jede Duftspur ausführlich untersucht wird. Er genießt die kleinen Dinge des Lebens: ein sonniges Plätzchen, ein weiches Körbchen, liebevolle Hände zum Kraulen und Menschen, die Zeit für ihn haben. Rennen muss er nicht mehr – dafür beherrscht er die Kunst des entspannten Genießens perfekt. Besonders viel Freude bereiten ihm Streicheleinheiten. Davon kann er eigentlich nie genug bekommen. Er ist sehr menschenbezogen, anhänglich und sucht die Nähe seiner Bezugspersonen. Deshalb wünschen wir uns für ihn ein Zuhause bei ein bis zwei Menschen, die ihm viel Aufmerksam

About Pepe

What life with Pepe looks like

Pepe is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein Franz von Assisi e.V. in Germany.

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.

🇩🇪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 Pepe, answered.

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