Woffy

Mixed Breed · Male

Woffy, the lively, joyful giant, is making the most of his time at his foster home. The lovable male dog adores walks, and longer ones are a welcome treat. Woffy is absolutely leash-friendly and well-socialized. There have been no issues with fellow animals; when he encounters cats or other small creatures during his walks, he shows no interest. In the house, the puppy behaves calmly and can be left alone without issues for an appropriate amount of time. Children should be a bit older and more stable, as Woffy, despite his size and weight, is an active dog. On his foster home, he loves playing in the yard or playing fetch. Therefore, an agile male dog like Woffy would benefit from a home or apartment with a garden. Also, Woffy enjoys car rides. The handsome fellow had to be surrendered when his owners separated and were no longer able to care for him. If you are interested in this wonderful giant, please contact this breed at our area.

Woffy, der lustige, lebensfreudige Riese genießt die Zeit auf seiner Pflegestelle in vollen Zügen. Der liebenswerte Rüde liebt Spaziergänge ganz besonders. Diese dürfen auch gerne etwas länger sein. Woffy ist absolut Leinen führig und gut sozialisiert. Mit Artgenossen gab es bisher keine Probleme. Wenn ihm bei seinen Spazierrunden Katzen oder andere Kleintiere begegnet sind, hat er sich für diese nicht interessiert. Im Haus verhält sich der Hundebub ruhig und kann auch eine angemessene Zeit ohne Probleme allein bleiben. Kinder sollten schon etwas größer und standfest sein, da Woffy trotz seiner Größe und seines Gewichts ein bewegungsfreudiger Hund ist. Auf seiner Pflegestelle liebt er es, im Hof herumzutollen oder mit dem Ball zu spielen. Daher wäre für den agilen Rüden ein Haus bzw. Wohnung mit Garten von Vorteil. Auch Autofahren findet Woffy toll. Der hübsche Kerl musste abgegeben werden, da sich die Besitzer trennten und dann nicht mehr für ihn sorgen konnten. Wenn Sie Interesse an dem wunderbaren Riesen haben, melden Sie sich gerne bei der Tierhilfe Franken.

About Woffy

What life with Woffy looks like

Woffy is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierhilfe Franken e.V. in Lauf.

An 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 Woffy, answered.

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