Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

163995 Odi – Handicap – male dog, neutered, born ca. 2019, shoulder height ca. 50 cm, in the animal shelter Belchatow since 13.09.2025. Odi has certainly not had a good life so far – probably an abandoned breeding dog that was no longer productive for its "breeder" and was discarded. Completely emaciated, full of fleas, and with extremely long claws, Odi arrived at the animal shelter with the last of his strength. But Odi did not give up; he awakened to new life in the animal shelter – his strong will to live has helped him. Odi gives us the impression of being calm and balanced; he is much better off. He is curious and lets us strangers touch him immediately. His surroundings are very interesting to him; he likes to sniff around a lot. On the leash, he walks very well. Odi shares his pen with male and female dogs. Odi has poor eyesight – on the photos, one can see that his right eye is obviously not in good condition. How wonderful it would be if this loving Lab-male dog – probably for the first time in his dog life – could find a real home as a family member. (01/2026 MI/AX)

163995 Odi – Handicap – Rüde, kastriert, geboren ca. 2019, Schulterhöhe ca. 50 cm, im Tierheim Belchatow seit 13.09.2025. Odi hat mit Sicherheit kein gutes Leben bisher gehabt – wahrscheinlich ein ausrangierter Zuchtrüde der für seinen „Züchter“ nicht mehr produktiv genug war und entsorgt wurde. Völlig abgemagert, voller Flöhe und mit extrem langen Krallen kam Odi mit letzter Kraft im Tierheim an. Aber Odi gab nicht auf, er erwachte im Tierheim zu neuem Leben – sein starker Lebenswille hat ihm geholfen. Auf uns macht Odi einen ruhigen und ausgeglichenen Eindruck, es geht ihm viel besser. Er ist neugierig und lässt sich von uns Fremden sofort anfassen. Seine Umgebung ist für ihn sehr interessant, er schnüffelt gerne und viel. An der Leine läuft er sehr gut. Seinen Zwinger teilt sich Odi mit Rüden und Hündinnen. Odi kann schlecht sehen – auf den Fotos sieht man, dass sein rechtes Auge offensichtlich nicht in Ordnung ist. Wie schön wäre es, wenn dieser liebe Labi-Rüde – wahrscheinlich zum ersten Mal in seinem Hundeleben – ein richtiges Zuhause als Familienmitglied finden würde. (01/2026 MI/AX)

About Unknown

What life with Unknown looks like

Unknown is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Hundehilfe Polen in Dierkshausen.

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 Unknown, answered.

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