Rhysand

Mixed Breed · Male

Rhysand was found in the middle of a large street; he must have had many guardian angels that he came through unscathed. So he is an absolute treasure, a quiet dog who gets along well with other dogs and is also fine with children, as long as they are a bit bigger due to his size. For Rhysand is a big cuddle bear. He is also not a hunter, just a happy dog who still needs to find his people. Of course, he wants to move a lot and play and get to know our everyday life, there will still be a lot for him to learn. With the right people by his side, he will manage.

DE·Show original

Rhysand fand man mitten auf einer großen Straße, er muss wohl viele Schutzengel gehabt haben, dass er unversehrt davonkam. Also er ist ein absoluter Schatz, ein ruhiger Hund, verträglich mit anderen Hunden und auch Kinder sind kein Problem. Sie sollten vielleicht nur schon etwas größer sein, wegen der Standfestigkeit. Denn Rhysand ist ein großer Schmusebär. Er ist auch kein Jäger, einfach nur ein fröhlicher Hund, der seine Menschen noch finden muss. Natürlich möchte er sich viel bewegen und spielen und unseren Alltag kennenlernen, da wird es noch viel zu lernen geben für ihn. Mit den richtigen Menschen an seiner Seite, wird er es meistern.

About Rhysand

What life with Rhysand looks like

Rhysand is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Pfotenhilfe Sachsen e.V. in Germany.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 Rhysand, answered.

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