How do I contact the shelter about Twain?

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

Can I adopt Twain if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — A.C.E. Animal Compassion Europe - Tiere in Not 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 Twain 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 Twain 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 A.C.E. Animal Compassion Europe - Tiere in Not e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Twain 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.

Twain

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 6 years

reserved, compatible, insecure, friendly Update: Twain has made good progress at his foster home. He is generally compatible with all dogs. On the dog field, he runs and plays freely even with strange dogs. With strange people, Twain is initially reserved, but this quickly passes. Twain manages car rides without stress. He walks well on a leash in the fields. Walking through the neighborhood is still not very relaxed. But it is steadily improving. The dear Twain has developed a very close bond with his primary caregiver. For the sensitive Kangal mixed breed, I wish a quiet home where he is confidently and consistently guided and supported. Only then will Twain gain confidence. A confident only dog would be a great addition for him, as despite his age, he is still very playful. You can meet this great dog at his foster home in Bergkamen. Twain came to Germany as a puppy. Now, after 5 years, he has to leave his family. Twain is a kind dog, but he is insecure. He is looking for a person who gives him security and walks through life with him. For him, stability is particularly important. He needs someone he can trust and who will be there forever. On a leash, dog encounters are no problem and he continues walking politely, even if he is teased. The household may have another confident only dog. He likes the company of other dogs. We are looking for a rural home with a garden for the nice male dog. He is a Kangal mix and his family should be familiar with his characteristics and special personality traits beforehand. Twain can be visited and met in 48249 Dülmen. They are all vaccinated, microchipped and have an EU passport. They are checked for Mediterranean diseases according to their age. See information on our homepage. Every dog placed makes room for one of the dogs that live a life of hunger and emaciation.

zurückhaltend, verträglich, unsicher, freundlich Update: Twain hat auf seiner Pflegestelle gute Fortschritte gemacht. Mit allen Hunden ist er grundsätzlich verträglich. Auf der Hundewiese tobt und rennt er ausgelassen auch mit fremden Hunden.Bei fremden Menschen ist Twain anfangs noch zurückhaltend, aber das legt sich schnell. Die Autofahrt meistert Twain ohne Stress. In den Felder läuft er prima an der Leine. Durch die Siedlung zu laufen ist noch nicht so entspannt. Aber es wird stetig besser. Der liebe Twain entwickelt eine sehr enge Bindung zu seiner Bezugsperson. Für den sensiblen Kangal Mischling wünsche ich mir ein ruhiges Zuhause, wo er souverän und konsequent geführt und gefördert wird. Nur so gewinnt Twain an Sicherheit. Ein souveräner Ersthund wäre für ihn eine Bereicherung, da er trotz seines Alters immer noch sehr verspielt ist. Kennenlernen könnt ihr diesen tollen Hund auf seiner Pflegestelle in Bergkamen. Twain kam als Welpe nach Deutschland. Jetzt muss er nach 5 Jahren seine Familie verlassen. Twain ist ein lieber Hund, der aber unsicher ist. Er sucht einen Menschen, der im Sicherheit gibt und mit ihm durchs Leben geht. Für ihn ist Stabilität besonders wichtig. Er benötigt jemanden, dem er vertrauen kann und das für immer. An der Leine sind Hundebegegnungen kein Problem und er läuft brav weiter mit, selbst wenn er angepöbelt wird. Im Haushalt darf gerne ein weiter souveräner Ersthund sein. Er mag gerne die Gesellschaft anderer Hunde. Wir suchen für den netten Rüden ein ländliches Zuhause mit Garten. Er ist ein Kangalmischling und seine Familie sollte im Vorfeld mit den Eigenheiten und speziellen Charaktereigenschaften vertraut machen. Twain kann in 48249 Dülmen besucht und kennengelernt werden. sind alle geimpft, gechipt und haben einen EU-Ausweis. Sie werden altersentsprechend auf Mittelmeerkrankheiten gecheckt. Siehe dazu Info auf unserer Homepage. Jeder vermittelte Hunde macht Platz für einen jener Hunde, die hungernd und ausgemergelt ihr Dasein fristen müssen. AUFENTHALTSORT
