Snow

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 16 years

Snow’s Besitzer verstarb vor Kurzem. Er lebte sein bisheriges gesamtes Leben draußen in einer Hütte auf dem Grundstück. Eine wirkliche Gesundheitsversorgung hatte er auch nicht, weshalb er bei seinem ersten Tierarztbesuch in unserer Obhut erst einmal einige Zähne gezogen bekommen hat. Nun hat er noch 4 Zähnchen übrig, ist aber altersentsprechend sonst fit. Snow ist ein wirklich lieber Hund, für den wir eine passende Altersresidenz suchen. Er braucht keine großen Spaziergänge oder Action mehr. Ein warmes, gemütliches Körbchen, ein stets gefüllter Napf und geduldige und verständnisvolle Menschen mit einem Herz für Senioren wäre perfekt. Auch, wenn Snow aktuell soweit fit ist, sollten sich seine neuen Besitzer bewusst sein, dass mit der Adoption eines Seniors auch höhere Tierarztkosten schneller Zustande kommen können. Ein ruhiges Zuhause mit entspanntem Alltag und vielleicht einem eigenen Garten wäre sehr passend für den kleinen Mann. Mit anderen Hunden kommt er gut zurecht, weshalb wir ihn uns auch als Zweithund oder als Teil eines kleinen Rudels vorstellen könnten. Aber auch als Einzelprinz könnte er glücklich werden. Kleine Kinder sollten nicht unbedingt im Haushalt leben, aber ruhige ältere Kinder sollten kein Problem sein. Wir hoffen sehr, dass der alte Opi noch ein paar schöne Momente in einem richtigen Zuhause bekommen kann. Snow kann ab sofort ausreisen. Du möchtest Snow adoptieren? Dann fülle einfach das Bewerbungsformular aus! HINWEIS: Alle Hunde werden zeitgleich durch das deutsche & ungarische Team vermittelt. Auf beiden Seiten kann es zu Reservierungen kommen.

About Snow

What life with Snow looks like

Snow is a small senior mixed breed dog waiting at Spitz und Pawtners e.V. in Germany.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇩🇪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 Snow, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Snow?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Spitz und Pawtners e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Snow on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Snow if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Spitz und Pawtners 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Snow 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 Snow 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 Spitz und Pawtners e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Snow 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.
