Wolfi

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 10 years

Wolfi is looking for his forever home 🐾 Wolfi is 10 years old and has spent his entire life in a shelter. He never had a home of his own or the chance to experience all the little things that make a dog's life special. But now everything has changed for Wolfi, because he was allowed to move to a new shelter and is going for regular walks for the first time in his life. Every smell, every path, every little adventure seems to bring him so much joy - he is discovering the world like a puppy. Those who watch him can hardly believe that this dog has been waiting in a shelter for 10 years. It is almost as if he wants to make up for all the years he spent behind shelter bars and enjoy every moment, every experience especially intensely. Wolfi is an absolutely sweet and friendly guy. He is generally compatible with other dogs, with males it depends on the sympathy. Unfortunately, we can't say anything about children and cats at the moment. We really hope that he won't have to spend the time he still has behind shelter fences. He has waited 10 years for his chance, he shouldn't have to wait any longer. He deserves his own bed, a person who loves him, quiet walks and the feeling of finally being safe. After ten years of waiting, Wolfi is finally ready. Ready to live. ❤️

Wolfi sucht sein Für-Immer-Zuhause 🐾 Wolfi ist 10 Jahre alt und hat sein gesamtes Leben im Tierheim verbracht. Er hatte nie ein eigenes Zuhause oder die Chance all die kleinen Dinge zu erleben, die ein Hundeleben besonders machen. Doch jetzt hat sich für Wolfi alles verändert, denn er durfte in ein neues Tierheim ziehen und geht dort zum ersten Mal in seinem Leben regelmäßig spazieren. Jeder Geruch, jeder Weg, jedes kleine Abenteuer scheint ihm so viel Freude zu bereiten – er entdeckt gerade die Welt wie ein Welpe. Wer ihn dabei beobachtet, kann kaum glauben, dass dieser Hund 10 Jahre lang in einem Tierheim gewartet hat. Es ist fast, als würde er all die Jahre, die er hinter Tierheimgittern verbracht hat, nachholen wollen und jeden Moment, jedes Erlebnis besonders intensiv genießen. Wolfi ist ein absolut lieber und freundlicher Kerl. Mit anderen Hunden ist er grundsätzlich verträglich, bei Rüden entscheidet die Sympathie. Zu Kindern und Katzen können wir derzeit leider keine Aussage treffen. Wir wünschen uns so sehr, dass er die Zeit, die er noch hat, nicht hinter Tierheimzäunen verbringen muss. Er hat 10 Jahre auf seine Chance gewartet, er sollte nicht noch länger warten müssen. Er verdient ein eigenes Körbchen, einen Menschen, der ihn liebt, ruhige Spaziergänge und das Gefühl endlich sicher zu sein. Nach zehn Jahren Warten ist Wolfi endlich bereit. Bereit zu leben. ❤️

About Wolfi

What life with Wolfi looks like

Wolfi is a large senior mixed breed dog waiting at Fellnasen Stuttgart e.V. in Stuttgart.

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 Wolfi, answered.

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