Sharpey (m)

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Adult · 6 years

Our handsome Sharpey has been with us at the Casa since June 2022. He came to our Casa all by himself, but at first, no one could catch him. Eventually, he settled down in one of the outdoor pack’s huts and slept so soundly that a worker was able to grab him. The poor fellow had a metal collar around his neck, which our veterinarian removed. Sharpey is now about 5–6 years old and a beautiful dog who is totally friendly toward people. He lives with several other dogs in the enclosure, where he’s the boss, though. Sharpey would also be very happy about having a sponsor—people who think of him and care about him.

Unser hübscher Sharpey ist seit Juni 2022 bei uns in der Casa. Er kam von alleine in unsere Casa, aber niemand konnte ihn anfangs fangen. Irgendwann hat er sich dann in eine unserer Hütten des Freilaufrudels gelegt und so fest geschlafen, dass ein Arbeiter in holen konnte. Der arme Kerl hatte eine Metallschlinge um seinen Hals, die unser Tierarzt entfernt hat. Sharpey ist jetzt ca. 5 – 6 Jahre alt und ein wunderschöner, dem Menschen gegenüber total freundlicher Hund. Er lebt mit mehreren Hunden im Gehege, wo er aber der Boss ist. Auch Sharpey würde sich über eine Patenschaft und damit über Menschen, die an ihn denken, sehr freuen.

About Sharpey (m)

What life with Sharpey (m) looks like

Sharpey (m) is an adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tiernothilfe Casa Katharina e.V. in Nürnberg.

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 Sharpey (m), answered.

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