Tinker

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 9 years

63cm tall, age: 10/2021. Compatible with: male dogs: yes, female dogs: yes, cats: not tested. With us since: 26.07.2026. Location: ANAA animal shelter September 2026 - Tinker is a beautiful, large male dog looking for his people. He is a calm, balanced and very sweet dog. He approaches people kindly, is affectionate, enjoys petting and is easy to handle. He is also very social and compatible with his fellow dogs. He loves being outside and exploring his surroundings. He walks well on a leash and without pulling. Tinker has a hunting instinct, which should be known, but otherwise he is uncomplicated and friendly. Tinker came to us from a shelter near Madrid after an evacuation and is now waiting to find his forever home. He could also be suitable for committed dog beginners. Who will finally give this great boy a loving home? Maybe you.

Größe: 63cmAlter:*10/2021. Verträglich mitRüden: JaHündinnen: JaKatzen: noch nicht getestet Bei uns seit: 26.07.2026Aufenthaltsort: Tierheim ANAA September 2026 – Tinker ist ein wunderschöner, großer Rüde, der seine Menschen sucht. Er ist ein ruhiger, ausgeglichener und sehr lieber Hund. Menschen begegnet er freundlich, ist anhänglich, genießt Streicheleinheiten und lässt sich problemlos anfassen. Auch mit seinen Artgenossen ist er sehr sozial und verträglich. Er liebt es draußen zu sein und seine Umgebung zu erkunden. An der Leine läuft er bereits sehr gut und ohne zu ziehen. Tinker hat zwar einen Jagdinstinkt, was man wissen sollte, zeigt sich ansonsten aber unkompliziert und freundlich. Tinker kam nach einer Evakuierung aus einem Tierheim bei Madrid zu uns und wartet nun darauf endlich sein eigenes Zuhause zu finden. Auch für engagierte Hundeanfänger könnte er geeignet sein. Wer schenkt diesem tollen Burschen endlich ein liebevolles Zuhause? Vielleicht Sie.

About Tinker

What life with Tinker looks like

Tinker is a large 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Tinker, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Tinker?
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 Tinker on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Tinker 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 Tinker 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 Tinker 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 Tinker 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.
