Shotgun

Mixed Breed · Male

Shotgun is really special: cuddly, funny, playful (he can do that perfectly alone) and an absolute fresh air fanatic 🙂 We are looking for a home for the little one with few stairs with loving and patient people, preferably without small children, but with a garden with many beautiful lounging areas. Shotgun almost just as much enjoys splashing in the water, he has a great time there. For the walks, however, he can't quite warm up. This would do the six-year-old male good, because due to a wedge vertebra his back posture is slightly curved. Fortunately, it doesn't bother him further! Shotgun's house training is still a work in progress! French Bulldog unfortunately not compatible. Encounters with conspecifics should be trained or you make a big detour around them 🙂

DE·Show original

Shotgun ist wirklich besonders: knuffig, lustig, verspielt (kann das auch perfekt alleine) und absoluter Frischluftfanatiker 🙂 Wir suchen für den Kleinen ein Zuhause mit wenigen Treppen bei liebevollen und geduldigen Menschen, am besten ohne kleine Kinder, aber mit einem Garten mit vielen schönen Liegeecken. Fast genau so gern plantscht Shotgun im Wasser, da hat er einen Riesenspaß. Für das Gassigehen kann er sich hingegen nicht so richtig erwärmen. Dabei würde das dem sechsjährigen Rüden guttun, denn wegen eines Keilwirbels ist seine Rückenhaltung leicht gekrümmt. Zum Glück stört ihn das nicht weiter! Shotguns Stubenreinheit ist noch ausbaufähig! Franz. Bulldogge leider nicht verträglich. Begegnungen mit Artgenossen sollten trainiert werden oder man macht einen großen Bogen um sie herum 🙂

About Shotgun

What life with Shotgun looks like

Shotgun is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Feucht in Feucht.

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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Shotgun, answered.

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