Vader

Border Collie · Male

Beschreibung Unsere Tierschützer berichten: Vader hatte ein Zuhause. Er lebte in Spanien bei einer Frau, es ging ihm gut. Leider kann die Frau sich aus privaten und finanziellen Gründen nicht mehr ausreichend um den hübschen Rüden kümmern. Sie hat ihn schweren Herzens im Tierheim abgegeben.Vader muss das erstmal verdauen. Das ist nicht leicht für ihn.Dabei versucht er sich Tag für Tag seinem neuen Leben anzupassen und sich daran zu gewöhnen, dass sein Mensch ihn verlassen hat.Der Collie-Mix Rüde ist ein sehr angenehmer Hund. Er ist sehr „höflich“ und „zuvorkommend“ möchte man fast sagen. Vader ist gerne mit uns Menschen im Kontakt. Er braucht das auch. Er braucht die enge Bindung.Noch ist er etwas verhalten im direkten, engen Kontakt; wer mag es ihm verdenken. Aber er freut sich über Streicheleinheiten, über liebevolle Zuwendung.Vader braucht nun eine liebevolle Person die ihn tröstet und die ihm wieder Lebensfreude einhaucht. Er ist im besten Alter und wir sind uns sicher, dass er in seinem neuen Zuhause vollends auftauen und seinen Menschen sehr glücklich machen wird.Mit den anderen Hunden auf der großen Pflegestelle versteht er sich sehr gut. Auch mit Katzen hat der wunderschöne Bube keine Probleme. Ein echter Traumhund.Er kann gut im Auto mitfahren, bleibt auch mal problemlos alleine und läuft gut an der Leine.Wo darf der liebe Vader nun ankommen, für immer, und seine trauernde Seele heilen lassen?

About Vader

What life with Vader looks like

Vader is a large adult border collie dog waiting at Tierischgeholfen e.V. in Germany.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 Vader, answered.

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