Rex

Mixed Breed · Male

Rex - 7 years old, German Shepherd & looking for his human ❤️ Our Rex is a 7-year-old, neutered German Shepherd who came to us as a surrender dog with a severe fungal infection. The treatment is slowly coming to an end - and Rex is making great progress! His coat is growing beautifully and soon a new chapter can begin for him. 🥰 Rex loves walks and spending time with his humans. He especially enjoys water 🏊‍♂️🐕. Rex is very friendly and open-minded towards people. In his last home, he lived with a child. Currently, Rex shows a strong reaction to other dogs and barks at them on the leash. His future owners should therefore be physically able to safely lead a strong German Shepherd and be willing to work with him on this behavior. 💪 In his younger years, Rex had regular contact with other dogs, but not recently. As soon as his treatment is completely finished, we would like to test how Rex gets along with other dogs. We are looking for people who enjoy an active dog, give him security and are willing to go through life with him. ❤️ Call categories: Dogs for adoption Animals for adoption Adoption fees Dogs for adoption Cats for adoption Small animals for adoption Adoption help Placed adopted dogs placed cats placed small animals News Information for visitors Dog walkers Support group Membership!

Rasse: Deutscher SchäferhundAlter: 7 Jahre. Geschlecht: männlich. Kastriert: Ja. Geimpft: Ja. Gechipt: Ja 🐾 Rex – 7 Jahre, Schäferhund & auf der Suche nach seinem Menschen ❤️Unser Rex ist ein 7-jähriger, kastrierter Schäferhundrüde, der als Abgabehund mit einem massiven Pilzbefall zu uns kam. Die Behandlung neigt sich inzwischen langsam dem Ende zu – und Rex macht tolle Fortschritte! Sein Fell wächst wunderbar nach und bald kann für ihn ein neues Kapitel beginnen. 🥰Rex liebt Spaziergänge und gemeinsame Zeit mit seinen Menschen. Besonders Wasser hat es ihm angetan 🏊‍♂️🐕Menschen gegenüber zeigt sich Rex sehr freundlich und aufgeschlossen. In seinem letzten Zuhause lebte er auch mit einem Kind zusammen.Bei Begegnungen mit anderen Hunden zeigt Rex aktuell eine deutliche Reaktion und verbellt Artgenossen an der Leine. Seine zukünftigen Menschen sollten deshalb körperlich in der Lage sein, einen kräftigen Schäferhund sicher zu führen, und bereit sein, mit ihm weiter an diesem Verhalten zu arbeiten. 💪In jungen Jahren hatte Rex regelmäßigen Kontakt zu anderen Hunden, in letzter Zeit allerdings nicht mehr. Sobald seine Behandlung vollständig abgeschlossen ist, möchten wir daher noch genauer testen, wie Rex mit anderen Hunden zurechtkommt.Für Rex suchen wir Menschen, die Freude an einem aktiven Hund haben, ihm Sicherheit geben und bereit sind, gemeinsam mit ihm durchs Leben zu gehen. ❤️ Anrufen Kategorien: Hunde zu vermittelnTiere zu vermitteln NavigationStartseite Gefunden!

About Rex

What life with Rex looks like

Rex is an adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Regen in Regen.

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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Rex, answered.

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