Adopt Rexi Be

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 9 years

- waits at the animal shelter in Hungary - Rexi – German Shepherd Mix with Heart and Character 🐾💛This is Rexi, a roughly 4-year-old German Shepherd Mix, about 60 cm tall. Since his arrival, he has shown great progress: thanks to targeted therapy, he has become much more confident and relaxed.Rexi needs a bit of time to get used to new places, but he's already making significant strides. Now, he can easily be introduced to strangers and even taken on walks outside – this is still being worked on.He gets along well with other dogs, but does not like to be dominated. He is not aggressive, but also not a big player. Typical for a shepherd, he wants to please; he just needs a little push to overcome his remaining shyness.Rexi is active, walks well on the leash, and loves playing with a ball. 🐶We see him best in a quiet home, ideally with a calm, sovereign dog – perhaps a loving female dog – who doesn't overwhelm him. It’s important that there’s a quiet retreat where he feels safe.Rexi seeks a family that offers him patience, love, and structure, appreciates his character, and provides him with the necessary security. 💛A rural home with a garden would be perfect – here he could continue to be challenged and supported by people who bring time, calmness, and patience to help him flourish even more.

- wartet im Tierheim in Ungarn - Rexi – Schäferhund-Mix mit Herz und Charakter 🐾💛Das ist Rexi, ein ca. 4 Jahre alter Schäferhund-Mix, etwa 60 cm groß. Seit seiner Ankunft zeigt er große Fortschritte: Dank gezielter Therapie ist er viel selbstbewusster und entspannter geworden.Rexi braucht ein wenig Zeit, um sich an neue Orte zu gewöhnen, doch er macht schon große Fortschritte. Mittlerweile kann man ihn problemlos unter fremde Menschen führen und auch auf die Straße mitnehmen – daran wird noch weiter gearbeitet.Mit anderen Hunden versteht sich Rexi gut, lässt sich aber nicht dominieren. Er ist nicht aggressiv, aber auch kein großer Spieler. Schäferhundtypisch möchte er gefallen; es fehlt ihm nur noch ein kleines Stück, um über seinen eigenen Schatten zu springen.Rexi ist aktiv, läuft gut an der Leine und liebt es, mit dem Ball zu spielen. 🐶Wir können uns ihn gut in einem ruhigen Zuhause vorstellen, idealerweise mit einem souveränen, ruhigen Hund – vielleicht eine liebe Hündin – der ihn nicht bedrängt. Wichtig ist ein ruhiger Rückzugsort, an dem er sich sicher fühlt.Rexi sucht eine Familie, die ihm Geduld, Liebe und Struktur gibt, seinen Charakter schätzt und ihm die nötige Sicherheit bietet. 💛Ein ländliches Zuhause mit Garten wäre perfekt – hier könnte er weiterhin gefordert und gefördert werden, von Menschen, die Zeit, Ruhe und Geduld mitbringen, um ihn noch mehr aufzublühen zu lassen.

About Rexi Be

What life with Rexi Be looks like

Rexi Be is a large senior mixed breed dog waiting at Hundepfoten Steinfurt e.V. in Nordwalde.

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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Rexi Be, answered.

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