How do I contact the shelter about Sullivan?

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

Can I adopt Sullivan if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tiere in Spanien 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 Sullivan 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 Sullivan 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 Tiere in Spanien e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Sullivan 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.

Sullivan

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 9 years

Size: 58cm Age: *10/2023. Vertrittgliche with Rüden: Ja Hündinnen: Ja Katzen: noch nicht getestet Since we have had him: January 2026 at our shelter – Our picture-perfect Sullivan, who came to us through some detours, is looking for a home with active people who can spend a lot of time with him and provide him with enough stimulation. He is a very active, intelligent, affectionate, and eager-to-learn young male dog who should be trained to work with his head and nose, such as in scent searches, trailing, etc. We would like him to be properly challenged and supported. Also, training him to be calm and composed should be a priority. He gets along well with his fellow animals and also with children, although we think that children living in the home should be a bit more resilient. If you think you can provide Sullivan with the right home and enjoy doing activities together, we would be happy if you fill out the inquiry form. Sullivan is neutered and vaccinated and can start his hopefully soon-to-be new life at any time.

Größe: 58cmAlter: *10/2023. Verträglich mitRüden: JaHündinnen: JaKatzen: noch nicht getestetBei uns seit: Aufenthaltsort: Animals Sense Sostre Januar 2026 – Unser bildschöner Sullivan, der durch einige Umwege zu uns gekommen ist, sucht ein Zuhause bei sportlichen Menschen die viel mit ihm unternehmen und ausreichend Zeit für ihn haben. Er ist ein sehr aktiver, intelligenter, anhänglicher und lernbegieriger junger Rüde der mit Kopf und Nasenarbeit wie Futterbeutelsuche, Maintrailing etc. artgerecht ausgelastet und gefördert werden möchte. Auch das Erlernen von Ruhe und Gelassenheit sollte unbedingt trainiert werden. Mit seinen Artgenossen versteht er sich problemlos und auch mit Kindern versteht er sich wobei wir denken das im Haushalt lebende Kinder schon etwas standfester sein sollten. Wenn Sie denken das Sie Sullivan das passende Zuhause bieten können und Spaß an gemeinsamen Aktivitäten haben, dann freuen wir uns, wenn Sie das Anfrageformular ausfüllen. Sullivan ist kastriert und geimpft und kann jederzeit in sein hoffentlich bald neues Leben starten.

About Sullivan

What life with Sullivan looks like

Sullivan is a medium-sized senior mixed breed dog waiting at Tiere in Spanien e.V. in Hamburg.

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.
