Sammy

Cocker Spaniel · Male · Adult · 5 years

Mein Name ist Sammy! Sammy ist ein typischer Cocker Spaniel: lieb, anhänglich, temperamentvoll und natürlich mit einem kleinen Dickkopf ausgestattet. Meistens ist er ein freundlicher und verschmuster Kerl, kann aber auch schnell mal skeptisch werden. Dann ist es wichtig, seine Körpersprache ernst zu nehmen und ihm den nötigen Raum zu geben. Sammy ist außerdem schnell aufgeregt und muss noch lernen, zur Ruhe zu kommen. Dafür braucht er Menschen, die ihm Sicherheit und klare Strukturen geben und ihm geduldig zeigen, dass nicht immer alles sofort passieren muss. Sammy kam als Abgabehund zu uns und sucht nun Menschen, die seine liebenswerte, manchmal eigenwillige Art zu schätzen wissen und gemeinsam mit ihm weiterarbeiten möchten.

About Sammy

What life with Sammy looks like

Sammy is a adult cocker spaniel dog waiting at Tierheim in Germany.

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 Sammy, answered.

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