Randy

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 8 years

Randy sieht zwar klein und kuschelig aus, hat es aber faustdick hinter den Ohren: Der ursprünglich aus Rumänien stammende Rüde ist ein typischer Hund, der gelernt hat, sich durchzuboxen. Wenn Randy sich frei entfalten darf, will er seine Interessen auch durchsetzen. Leider ist dies nicht Randys erster Aufenthalt bei uns. In der Vergangenheit kam es wiederholt zu Beißvorfällen mit fremden Menschen, die ihn anfassen wollten. Den daraufhin auferlegten Wesenstest hat er bestanden, wurde jedoch als gefährlich eingestuft. Der kleine Kerl ist sehr wachsam und kommentiert mit Vorliebe alles, was seiner Meinung nach nicht in seine Nähe gehört. Randy ist recht territorial, verteidigt seinen Bereich und möchte alles kontrollieren. Souveräne Menschen sind genau das Richtige für ihn. Wenn er weiß, was von ihm verlangt wird, genießt er sehr gerne Streicheleinheiten und geht prima an der Leine mit. Wenn Sie Randy ein fürsorgliches Zuhause schenken möchten, schicken Sie gerne Ihre ausgefüllte Selbstauskunft an (Für die Adresse JavaScript anschalten)! 16.06.2026 (ma/dlb*)

About Randy

What life with Randy looks like

Randy is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Hamburger Tierschutzverein in Hamburg.

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 Randy, answered.

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