How do I contact the shelter about Pointy?

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

Can I adopt Pointy if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Ein Freund fürs Leben 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 Pointy 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 Pointy 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 Ein Freund fürs Leben e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Pointy 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.

Pointy

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 4 years

♂, born ca. 5/2022 social - lovable - athletic in Spain Pointy is a ca. 5/2022 born English Pointer male with a shoulder height of ca. 60 cm. Pointy has been in the animal shelter since May 2023. Since then, the dear male has been eagerly waiting for a loving, adequate home and a cozy warm dog bed to live happily in security and well-being. The lovable and very active male has a lot of energy. He is looking for committed people who have a lot of time for him, challenge and promote him, teach him the dog basics with calmness and patience, ideally combined with regular visits to the dog school and integrate him actively into their daily routine, where Pointy finally experiences the affection, love and care he has not had so far. Pointy is highly compatible with conspecifics of both sexes. He would be happy to be placed with other socially compatible conspecifics, ideally of similar age and size. Due to his breed, Pointy is very agile and has a lot of power and energy. A loving home is sought for Pointy with active people who have a lot of time for him, as well as a desire and joy in joint activities with him and discover the world together with him, because he has probably not yet known much and is not a couch potato. A more rural home and environment would be desirable and ideal for him. Cats and/or small animals should not be present in his future home. Pointy is neutered, vaccinated, chipped and tested for Mediterranean diseases. He is in an animal shelter in Andalusia/Spain. The deposit for Pointy is 580 euros.

♂, geb. ca. 5/2022sozial - liebenswert - sportlich in Spanien Pointy ist ein ca. 5/2022 geborener English Pointer Rüde mit einer Schulterhöhe von ca. 60 cm. Pointy befindet sich seit Mai 2023 im Tierheim. Seither wartet der liebe Rüde sehnlichst auf ein liebevolles adäquates Zuhause und ein gemütliches warmes Hundebettchen, um in Geborgenheit und Wohlbefinden, glücklich leben zu können. Der liebenswerte und sehr aktive Rüde besitzt viel Energie. Er sucht zu seinem endgültigen Glück, engagierte Menschen, die viel Zeit für ihn haben, ihn fordern und fördern, ihm das Hundeeinmaleins mit Ruhe und Geduld beibringen, bestenfalls verbunden mit regelmäßigen Besuchen in der Hundeschule und ihn aktiv in ihren Alltag integrieren, bei denen Pointy endlich die Zuneigung, Liebe und Fürsorge erfährt, die er bisher nicht hatte. Mit Artgenossen beiderlei Geschlechts ist Pointy bestens kompatibel. Er könnte gern und gut zu weiteren sozialverträglichen Artgenossen, bestenfalls in ähnlichem Alter und ähnlicher Größe, vermittelt werden. Rassebedingt ist Pointy sehr agil und besitzt viel Power und Energie. Für Pointy wird ein liebevolles Zuhause bei aktiven Menschen gesucht, die viel Zeit für ihn besitzen, sowie Lust und Freude an gemeinsamen Aktivitäten mit ihm haben und zusammen mit ihm die Welt entdecken, denn er hat vermutlich bisher noch nicht viel kennengelernt und ist auch kein Couchpotato. Ein eher ländliches Zuhause und Umfeld wäre für ihn wünschenswert und ideal. Katzen und/oder Kleintiere sollten in seinem zukünftigen Zuhause nicht vorhanden sein. Pointy wird kastriert, geimpft, gechipt und auf Mittelmeerkrankheiten getestet vermittelt. Er befindet sich in einem Tierheim in Andalusien/Spanien. Die Schutzgebühr für Pointy beträgt 580 Euro.

About Pointy

What life with Pointy looks like

Pointy is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Ein Freund fürs Leben e.V. in Berlin.

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.
