How do I contact the shelter about Thorin?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Fulda handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Thorin on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Thorin if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Fulda 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 Thorin 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 Thorin 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 Fulda early rather than rehoming privately; they know Thorin 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.

Thorin

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

Start / Animals / Dogs / Male Dog / ThorinThorin03.2026. Breed: Mixed breed. Gender: Male, neutered. Age: Born 01.02.2025. Shoulder height: approx. 30 cm. Categories: Dogs, Male Dog, Animals. Description: Thorin is an open and friendly male dog. He loves people, petting, and attention. He can't get enough of it. On a leash, he already does quite well. Since we know nothing about his background, interested parties must assume that Thorin still needs to learn the basics: house training, walking on a leash, being alone, and car rides. Also, the basic obedience must be worked on together with him. However, since he has friends in working together with people, this should not be a big problem. He enjoys spending time with his people and when they leave the kennel, he scratches at the door. So, the topic of being alone can certainly require some time and patience. Generally, we can imagine Thorin with older children, but he doesn't know it. Therefore, children should already be old enough to have a basic understanding of dogs and their needs and be able to give the dog space and rest. So far, Thorin gets along well with his roommates, but he tends to be a bit of a show-off. For most other dogs, it's also no problem, but with individual male dogs, he can sometimes be grumpy and bark himself into a rage. Here, timely intervention is necessary to prevent him from taking it out on people. He comes on slowly and it shows that he doesn't like being restricted. Here, clear guidance and consistency are needed, Thorin needs clear boundaries. Cats should be tested if necessary. Thorin03.2026. Breed: Mixed breed. Gender: Male, neutered. Age: Born 01.02.2025.

About Thorin

What life with Thorin looks like

Thorin is a large young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Fulda in Fulda.

An young 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.
