Black

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 3 years

Black – schwarze Schönheit hinter Gittern Schwarze Hunde haben es im Tierschutz oft am schwersten. Dabei ist Black ein absoluter Hingucker! Er ist ein wunderschöner Rüde, dessen Geburtsdatum vom Tierarzt auf den 01. 06. 2023 geschätzt und festgelegt wurde. Gemeinsam mit seinen beiden Brüdern wurde er im Alter von etwa 4–5 Monaten allein auf einem Feld gefunden und gerettet. Anfangs zeigt sich Black Menschen gegenüber etwas schüchtern, doch sobald er Vertrauen gefasst hat, taut er schnell auf und zeigt seine liebevolle Seite. Black ist kastriert, gechipt und geimpft. Er versteht sich sehr gut mit anderen Hunden. Ob er mit Katzen verträglich ist, kann auf Anfrage getestet werden. Bist du der Mensch, der Black zeigt, dass seine Farbe kein Hindernis, sondern sein Markenzeichen ist?

About Black

What life with Black looks like

Black is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Alba for Animals e.V. in Oberhausen.

A young 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 Black, answered.

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