How do I contact the shelter about Phaen?

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

Can I adopt Phaen if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Seelen für Seelchen 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 Phaen 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 Phaen 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 Seelen für Seelchen e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Phaen 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 Phaen

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 9 years

Age: Born in 2024. Gender: male. neutered: yes Character: friendly, somewhat reserved Size: approx. 45 cm In shelter since: December 2024 Family: siblings Rune, Jeremie, Milow, Stiles, Merkur & Savannah This cute puppy is Phaen and has only recently joined us. He still needs to get used to the loud everyday life in the shelter. He’s not entirely comfortable with everything yet. That’s why he’s also a bit shy towards people. Who knows what this sweet mouse has experienced so far…? It would be a shame if Phaen had to spend his youth behind bars. Much rather, he would like to roam around appropriately for his age, play a lot, and discover something new every day. Who has this pretty male doggy in their heart? Who might give him a dog bed and who takes the time to help Phaen get used to our everyday life? When he has traveled a long distance, he will surely need some time to get used to all the new things waiting for him. With a lot of time and patience, he can be supported and shown that he doesn’t need to be afraid, that he is safe with his people, and can finally feel secure. Where are his people? Interested? If you are interested in Phaen, please fill out our interested party form () or send us an email or a message on Facebook. Phaen is ready to travel and can travel to Germany with the next transport. Our dogs travel legally with Traces. Traces refers to the database system that monitors the entire animal transport within the EU. The dogs travel neutered (if old enough), vaccinated, microchipped, and dewormed, and have an EU passport. Additionally, for dogs over 12 months old, a rapid test for the following Mediterranean diseases is conducted before travel arrangements: Borreliosis, Anaplasmosis, Ehrlichiosis, Dirofilariosis, and leishmaniasis. Merja K. has taken on the sponsorship for Phaen and thus ensures a full plate. Many thanks on behalf of the dogs!

SteckbriefAlter: 2024 geboren. Geschlecht: männlich. Kastriert: jaCharakter: freundlich, etwas zurückhaltendGröße: ca. 45 cmIm Shelter seit: Dezember 2024Verwandtschaft: Geschwister Rune, Jeremie, Milow, Stiles, Merkur & SavannahDieser hübsche Hundebub ist Phaen und erst seit kurzem bei uns.Er muss sich erst noch an den lauten Alltag im Shelter gewöhnen. So ganz geheuer ist ihm das alles noch nicht. Darum ist er auch den Menschen gegenüber noch etwas schüchtern. Wer kann schon sagen, was diese süße Maus bisher erlebt hat…?Es wäre schade, wenn Phaen seine Jugend hinter Gittern verbringen müsste. Viel lieber würde er altersgemäß durch die Gegend tollen, viel spielen und jeden Tag etwas Neues entdecken.Wem hat sich diese hübsche Rüde ins Herz geschlichen? Wer mag ihm ein eigenes Körbchen geben und wer nimmt sich die Zeit, Phaen an unseren Alltag zu gewöhnen?Wenn er die lange Reise hinter sich hat, wird er sicherlich einige Zeit brauchen, um sich auf all das Neue einzulassen, dass auf ihn wartet. Mit viel Zeit und Geduld kann man ihn aber unterstützend zur Seite stehen und ihm zeigen, dass er keine Angst haben braucht, dass er bei seinen Menschen in Sicherheit ist und sich endlich geborgen fühlen kann.Wo sind seine Menschen? Interesse geweckt?Wenn Sie Interesse an Phaen haben, füllen Sie bitte unseren Interessentenbogen aus ()oder schreiben Sie uns eine E-Mail an oder eine Nachricht über Facebook. Phaen ist ausreisefertig und kann mit dem nächsten Transport nach Deutschland reisen. Unsere Hunde reisen legal mit Traces. Als Traces bezeichnet man das Datenbanksystem, mit dem der gesamte Tierverkehr innerhalb der EU überwacht wird. Die Hunde reisen kastriert (insofern alt genug), geimpft, gechipt und entwurmt aus und besitzen einen EU-Pass. Des Weiteren wird bei Hunden ab 12 Monaten vor der Ausreise ein Schnelltest auf folgende Mittelmeerkrankheiten durchgeführt: Borreliose, Anaplasmose, Ehrlichiose, Dirofilariose und Leishmaniose. Die Patenschaft für Phaen hat Merja K. übernommen und sorgt somit für ein gefülltes Näpfchen. Vielen Dank im Namen der Hunde!

About Phaen

What life with Phaen looks like

Phaen is a medium-sized senior mixed breed dog waiting at Seelen für Seelchen e.V. in Alfter.

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.
