Tim

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 3 years

Tim ended up with us along with three other dogs who had been kept in poor conditions. Tim is a bit shy around strangers and needs time to warm up. However, once he gets to know someone, he becomes very cuddly and affectionate. He gets along well with other dogs and would be thrilled to have an existing dog companion! After settling in, he’s also learned to handle being left alone for short periods. He definitely needs regular grooming. Who will give Tim a forever home?

DE·Show original

Tim ist mit noch drei anderen Hunden aus schlechter Haltung bei uns gelandet. Tim ist bei fremden Menschen etwas vergruselt und braucht Zeit. Wenn er jemanden kennt ist er aber sehr verkuschelt. Mit anderen Hunden ist er verträglich und würde sich über einen vorhandenen Hund sehr freuen! Etwas alleine bleiben nach Eingewöhnung hat er auch gelernt. Er benötigt auf jeden Fall Fellpflege. Wer gibt Tim ein Zuhause für immer?

About Tim

What life with Tim looks like

Tim is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Nürnberg in Nuremberg.

An 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. 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 Tim, answered.

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