Simba

Mixed Breed · Male

Wir haben Simba zusammen mit zehn weiteren Hunden aus unserem BMT-Partnertierheim in Brașov, Rumänien, übernommen. Er ist ein absoluter Schatz, der immer gute Laune hat, sich über alles und jeden freut und wie ein Magnet alle Besucher zu seinem Zwinger zieht. Wir wissen nicht, wie er bisher in seiner alten Heimat gelebt hat, aber er scheint absolut nicht traumatisiert zu sein. Er geht schon gut an der Leine, kann aber laut den Gassigängern keine Pferde leiden. Ob er das Leben in einer Wohnung kennt, wissen wir nicht. Mit anderen Hunden ist er zumindest hier gut verträglich. Wir suchen für Simba nette Menschen, gerne auch eine Familie mit größeren Kindern, die ihn in ihre Mitte nehmen und ein Hundeleben lang begleiten. Wenn Sie sich für ein Kennenlernen mit Simba interessieren, schreiben Sie uns bitte eine ausführliche E-Mail.

About Simba

What life with Simba looks like

Simba is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Köln in Cologne.

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 Simba, answered.

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