Ragnar

Doberman · Unknown

I am a Doberman in a clown's body, and it's not the body's fault. Most of the time, there's a party going on in my head, even though I always seem to misplace the invitations for "sit" and "stay." I love people more than anything, but sometimes I'm not quite sure where my long legs are supposed to go. I'm looking for people with a sense of humor and firmness, who are willing to teach me the ABCs of being a dog and can laugh at my clumsy ways. If you're interested, please send us a meaningful application. We look forward to a detailed email with your phone number.

Ich bin ein Dobermann im Körper eines Clowns, der Körper kann auch garnichts dafür. In meinem Kopf ist meistens Party, auch wenn ich die Einladungen für „Sitz“ und „Platz“ bisher immer verlegt habe. Ich liebe Menschen über alles, weiß aber manchmal nicht so recht, wo meine langen Beine gerade hingehören. Menschen mit Humor und Standfestigkeit, die Lust haben, mir das Hunde-Einmaleins beizubringen und über meine tollpatschige Art lachen können. Dann melde Dich mit einer aussagekräftigen Bewerbung an Bei Interesse freuen wir uns über eine aussagekräftige Email mit Angabe der Rufnummer an .

About Ragnar

What life with Ragnar looks like

Ragnar is a adult doberman dog waiting at Tierheim Troisdorf in Germany.

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 Ragnar, answered.

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