Sky

English Bulldog · Female · Adult · 5 years

MalinoisGröße: groß ca. 27 kg. Geboren: 2021Hundeerfahrung: ja, muss vorhanden seinStadt/Land: ländlichGarten: ja, muss vorhanden seinZweithund: ggf. souveräner Rüde möglichKatzen: neinKinder: neinSky liebt ihre Bezugspersonen – wenn man in den Zwinger kommt, muss erst einmal geschmust werden. Draußen übernimmt sie jedoch schnell die Führung, wenn man sie lässt, und geht andere Personen in Form von massivem Anspringen an, auch bekannte. Hier braucht sie noch viel Anleitung und konsequente Führung. Bei einer angemessenen Korrektur duckt sie sich direkt weg, weshalb ein feinfühliger Umgang mit Sky sehr wichtig ist.Im Tierheim ist sie leider stark gestresst und springt im Zwinger oft hin und her. Ihre Leinenführigkeit ist noch ausbaufähig. Durch den Stress fällt es ihr schwer zu lernen, aber in Ruhephasen hat sie durchaus Freude an Nasenarbeit und Unterordnung – hier möchte sie ihrem Menschen gefallen. Sky reagiert stark auf Bewegungsreize und ist jagdlich motiviert.Sky ist aufgrund eines Beißvorfalls als gefährlich eingestuft und hat Maulkorb- sowie Leinenpflicht. Daher empfehlen wir im neuen Zuhause die direkte Anbindung an einen Trainer.

About Sky

What life with Sky looks like

Sky is a large adult english bulldog dog waiting at Tierheim Pforzheim in Pforzheim.

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. 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 Sky, answered.

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