Theodore

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy

Alvin, Simon & Theodore were surrendered to the Püspökladány shelter at just 6 weeks old. We suspect they were either a litter of ups or culled by the breeder. The person who surrendered them said they "found" them. Our team spent the last weeks nursing the three whirlwinds back to health, providing medical care and vaccinations so they are now ready for their forever homes. We don't know their exact breed mix, but they could be Pomchis, a mix of Pomeranian and Chihuahua. Theodore is the middle brother. He loves to be in the thick of things: Theodore likes to play with other dogs, with toys, and interact with people. He finds everything and everyone super interesting and explores his environment with typical puppy curiosity. Having grown up in our Pomeranian rescue, he has had many positive experiences with people. Children should be at least in elementary school age and have dog experience. He likes to be petted and can be easily lifted. Typical puppy behavior, he also tests his limits: nothing is safe from the little piranha teeth. His new owners should be prepared that the little rascal still has a lot to learn. They should have the time, financial and mental resources for a puppy. The little puppy is fearless, loving and open like his brothers. We can imagine him in different family constellations. His owners should thoroughly research the breed mix and potential health problems, as both the Pomeranian and Chihuahua are considered to be breeding for exaggerated features. Theodore brings a lot of potential to become a wonderful companion. We hope he finds the right people who want to raise him and give him a loving, appropriate home. Theodore can leave in August. Want to adopt Theodore? Just fill out the application form! NOTE: All dogs are being placed simultaneously by the German and Hungarian team. Reservations can be made on both sides.

Alvin, Simon & Theodore wurden mit nur 6 Wochen im Shelter in Püspökladány abgegeben. Wir vermuten, dass sie entweder ein Ups-Wurf waren oder vom Vermehrer aussortiert wurden. Die Person, die sie im Shelter abgegeben hatte, hat sie „gefunden“. Unser Team verbrachte die letzten Wochen damit, die drei Wirbelwinde aufzupäppeln und medizinisch soweit zu versorgen und durchzuimpfen, dass sie nun bald bereit für ihr eigenes Zuhause sind. Welche Rassen genau in ihnen stecken wissen wir natürlich nicht mit absoluter Sicherheit, aber rein optisch könnte es sich bei den Dreien um Pomchis, also einer Mischung aus Zwergspitz & Chihuahua handeln. Theodore ist der Mittlere der drei Brüder. Er ist gerne mittendrin statt nur dabei: Theodore spielt gerne mit anderen Hunden, mit Spielzeug und interagiert gerne mit Menschen. Er findet alles und jeden super interessant und erkundet welpentypisch neugierig seine Umwelt. Da er in unserer Spitzrettung aufwachsen durfte, hat er viele positive Erfahrungen mit Menschen gesammelt. Kinder sollten trotzdem mind. im Grundschulalter sein und Hundeerfahrung mitbringen. Er mag es gestreichelt zu werden und lässt sich auch problemlos hochheben. Typisch Junghund testet er aber auch seine Grenzen: nichts ist vor den kleinen Piranhazähnchen sicher. Seine neuen Besitzer sollten sich deshalb darauf einstellen, dass der kleine Frechdachs noch einiges lernen muss. Sie sollten also die zeitlichen, finanziellen und mentalen Ressourcen für einen Welpen mitbringen. Der kleine Welpe ist wie seine Brüder unerschrocken, lieb und offen. Wir können ihn uns in verschiedenen Familienkonstellationen vorstellen. Seine Besitzer sollten sich intensiv mit der Rassekombination und den potenziellen gesundheitlichen Problemen auseinandersetzen, da sowohl der Zwergspitz, als auch der Chihuahua Qualzuchten sind. Theodore bringt eine volle Tüte Potenzial mit, um ein ganz wundervoller Begleiter zu werden. Wir hoffen sehr, dass er die richtigen Menschen findet, die ihn erziehen und ihm ein liebevolles, artgerechtes Zuhause schenken wollen. Theodore kann ab August ausreisen. Du möchtest Theodore 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.

What life with Theodore looks like

Theodore is a very small puppy mixed breed dog waiting at Spitz und Pawtners e.V. in Germany.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

Adopting Theodore, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Theodore?

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 Theodore on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Theodore 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.

Is Theodore 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 Theodore 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 Theodore 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.
