Wotan

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 2 years

Wotan is a lovable, if somewhat shy, dog who has a great deal of potential. He gets along well with other dogs and enjoys attention from people and plenty of cuddles. Overall, we currently consider him to be a rather calm four-legged friend. Since he is still a little unsure of himself, people experienced with dogs would be a good fit for him. With loving care and a lot of patience in training, he will certainly find it easier to settle into his new home and overcome his insecurities. If you are interested in Wotan, please feel free to get in touch with us. Subject to a positive pre-adoption check, he can soon move into his new home vaccinated, microchipped, neutered, dewormed, deflead, and with an EU pet passport, for a protection fee of 495 euros.

Wotan ist ein liebenswerter, wenn auch etwas schüchterner Hund, der jedoch viel Potential mit sich bringt. Er kommt gut mit Artgenossen zurecht und genießt die Aufmerksamkeit von Menschen und ausgiebige Streicheleinheiten. Insgesamt schätzen wir ihn bislang als eher ruhigen Vierbeiner ein. Da er noch etwas unsicher ist, wären hundeerfahrene Menschen an seiner Seite sinnvoll. Mit einer liebevollen Erziehung und viel Geduld im Training wird er es mit Sicherheit leichter haben, sich in seinem neuen Zuhause zurechtzufinden und seine Unsicherheiten abzulegen. Wenn Sie Interesse an Wotan haben, melden Sie sich gerne bei uns. Bei positiver Vorkontrolle darf er schon bald geimpft, gechippt, kastriert, entwurmt, entfloht und mit einem EU-Heimtierausweis gegen eine Schutzgebühr von 495 Euro in sein neues Zuhause ziehen.

About Wotan

What life with Wotan looks like

Wotan is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein SpecialDogs e.V. in Germany.

A 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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Wotan, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Wotan?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutzverein SpecialDogs e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Wotan on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Wotan if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutzverein SpecialDogs 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Wotan 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 Wotan 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 Tierschutzverein SpecialDogs e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Wotan 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.
