Timy

Labrador Retriever · Male · Senior · 9 years

Timy sucht ein Zuhause Timy kam aufgrund eines Beißvorfalles mit einem anderen Tier zu uns. Anfangs ist der Rüde sehr verunsichert und misstrauisch. Aus diesem Grund versteckt er sich gerne. Findet er so schnell kein Versteck, geht er nach vorne und zeigt all seine weißen Beißerchen. Glücklicherweise ist er mit Leckerlies bestechlich. Macht man daraus ein kleines Spiel, z.B. Leckerlies werfen und er muss diese suchen, taut er schneller auf. Wenn er sich dann nicht mehr bedrängt fühlt, ist er ein ganz verschmuster Hund, der sich dann auch freiwillig zum Menschen legt, um gekuschelt zu werden. Mittlerweile freut er sich immer, wenn er seine Bezugsperson sieht und steht schwanzwedelnd am Zaun und wartet auf die Begrüßung. Der Trubel im Tierheim scheint zu viel für ihn zu sein. Sobald die Hunde in den Nebenzwingern Alarm machen, rennt er sein Außengehege ab, daher kann es sein, dass er im neuen Zuhause territorial wäre. Timy war anfangs auch noch ängstlich, was das Geschirr anziehen betraf, aber daran wird fleißig gearbeitet und es wird immer besser. Zusammengefasst ist er ein lieber Kerl, der einfach jemanden braucht, der Geduld hat und ihm Sicherheit bietet. Aufgrund des Beißvorfalles ist er als gefährlich eingestuft.

About Timy

What life with Timy looks like

Timy is a senior labrador retriever dog waiting at Tierheim Stendal in Stendal.

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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Timy, answered.

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