Snowy

Male

Snowy wurde von Anwohnern im „Nirgendwo“ gefunden. Er war ganz allein unterwegs. In unserem Kooperationstierheim stellte man fest, dass er an beiden Augen an „Cherry Eyes“ litt. Diese wurden nun erfolgreich im Juli operiert, noch sind die Augen etwas rot, aber in ein bis zwei Monaten wird man nichts mehr davon sehen. Snowy sind aus wie ein West Highland Terrier. Allerdings ist er etwas kompakter, als würden noch ein paar Labradorgene in ihm stecken. Aber egal, was in ihm steckt, Snowy ist ein aufgeweckter, freundlicher Rüde. Er ist sozial mit Artgenossen und zeigt sich nie aufdringlich. Wir suchen für Snowy eine Familie/Einzelperson mit Hundeerfahrung in einer Erdgeschosswohnung oder Wohnung mit Aufzug. Mit seinen kleinen Beinchen sollte er nicht täglich in obere Etagen laufen müssen. Gerne kann ein sozialer Ersthund in der Familie leben. Kinder sollten 12 Jahre oder älter sein. Wer verliebt sich in diesen kleinen Knuddel und zeigt ihm, wie schön das Leben sein kann? Haben Sie Fragen zu Snowy? Dann nehmen Sie gerne Kontakt auf. Alle Hunde sind bei Ausreise gechipt, geimpft und reisen mit einem EU Ausweis in einem beim deutschen Veterinäramt registrierten Transport. Die Hunde reisen mit TRACES.

About Snowy

What life with Snowy looks like

Snowy is a small adult dog waiting at Tierschutzverein Furbys FellFreunde in Bornheim.

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 Snowy, answered.

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