Snuggle

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

Snuggle was found abandoned with severely matted fur. After being taken in, he received veterinary care and was freed from his matted fur. He is now housed in our small animal shelter. We are now looking for people who want to give him a reliable home. Snuggle is an exceptionally friendly, people-oriented dog. He approaches people openly and seeks their company and shows himself as a cheerful companion in daily interactions. With his funny nature, he brings a lot of joy. Snuggle also shows himself to be compatible with other dogs. He eats with them. We have not observed any defense of his food or aggressive behavior in these situations. Life in his future home will bring some changes for Snuggle. We cannot judge what daily rules he already knows. His people should therefore be willing to guide him patiently and also teach him basic things from the start. This includes a relaxed daily routine, rest periods and a relaxed approach to new impressions. We wish for Snuggle people who enjoy an open-minded dog and give him guidance with loving consistency. A competent dog school can support his people in the settling in and joint training. After a positive preliminary check, Snuggle may be vaccinated, chipped, dewormed, de-fleaed, neutered and taken to his new home with an EU pet passport for a deposit of 495 euros.

Snuggle wurde ausgesetzt und mit stark verfilztem Fell gefunden. Nach seiner Aufnahme wurde er tierärztlich versorgt und von seinem verfilzten Fell befreit. Inzwischen ist er in unserem kleinen Tierheim untergebracht. Nun suchen wir für ihn Menschen, die ihm ein verlässliches Zuhause geben möchten. Snuggle ist ein ausgesprochen freundlicher, menschenbezogener Hund. Er begegnet Menschen offen und zugewandt, sucht ihre Nähe und zeigt sich im täglichen Umgang als fröhlicher Begleiter. Mit seiner lustigen Art bringt er viel Freude mit. Auch mit den anderen Hunden zeigt sich Snuggle verträglich. Er frisst gemeinsam mit ihnen. Eine Verteidigung seines Futters oder aggressives Verhalten in diesen Situationen haben wir bislang nicht beobachtet. Das Leben in seinem zukünftigen Zuhause wird für Snuggle einige Veränderungen mit sich bringen. Welche Alltagsregeln er bereits kennt, können wir nicht sicher beurteilen. Seine Menschen sollten deshalb bereit sein, ihn geduldig anzuleiten und ihm auch grundlegende Dinge von Anfang an zu vermitteln. Dazu gehören ein entspannter Tagesablauf, Ruhepausen und der gelassene Umgang mit neuen Eindrücken. Wir wünschen uns für Snuggle Menschen, die Freude an einem aufgeschlossenen Hund haben und ihm mit liebevoller Konsequenz Orientierung geben. Eine kompetente Hundeschule kann seine Menschen bei der Eingewöhnung und dem gemeinsamen Training unterstützen. Nach positiver Vorkontrolle darf Snuggle geimpft, gechippt, entwurmt, entfloht, kastriert und mit EU-Heimtierausweis gegen eine Schutzgebühr von 495 Euro in sein neues Zuhause ziehen.

About Snuggle

What life with Snuggle looks like

Snuggle is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein SpecialDogs e.V. in Germany.

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

Frequently asked

Adopting Snuggle, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Snuggle?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutzverein SpecialDogs e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Snuggle on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Snuggle if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutzverein SpecialDogs 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Snuggle 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 Snuggle 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 SpecialDogs e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Snuggle 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.
