Pepero

Male · 1 year

Pepero arrived with us as a found animal, so we can unfortunately not say much about his past. However, we suspect that he is still relatively young and belongs to an Asian fighting chicken breed. So far, Pepero has shown a friendly attitude towards humans and a keen curiosity. He loves to sit somewhere elevated and observe everything around him. With his beautiful long legs and large stature, he is definitely a sight to behold. He could almost start modeling work. And once he starts crowing, everyone's attention is definitely on him. In his new home, Pepero wishes for many hens who can become his fans.

Pepero kam als Fundtier zu uns, weswegen wir leider nicht viel über seine Vergangenheit sagen können. Wir vermuten aber, dass er noch relativ jung ist und einer asiatischen Kampfhuhnrasse angehört. Bis jetzt zeigt sich Pepero hier aber freundlich gegenüber Menschen und neugierig. Er liebt es, irgendwo erhöht zu sitzen und alles um ihn herum ganz genau zu beobachten. Mit seinen schönen langen Beinen und seiner großen Statur ist er dabei auch echt ein Blickfang. Er könnte schon fast anfangen als Model zu arbeiten. Und spätestens wenn er anfängt zu krähen sind wirklich alle Blicke auf ihn gerichtet. In seinem neuen Zuhause wünscht sich Pepero deswegen ganz viele Hennen, die seine Fans werden können.

About Pepero

What life with Pepero looks like

Pepero is a large adult animal waiting at Tierheim Dortmund in Dortmund.

Every animal has their own temperament and history. The shelter knows Pepero far better than any listing can convey — ask about daily routine, ideal household, and what kind of adopter they're hoping for.

Note from the shelter: Needs access to hens and appropriate outdoor space for roosters

🇩🇪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 Pepero, answered.

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