Zeus

Rottweiler · Male · Adult · 4 years

Ich bin Zeus ein hübscher, aber auch anspruchsvoller Kerl auf der Suche nach einem hundeerfahrenen Zuhause. Das bin ich: Anfangs bin ich recht unsicher und brauche deinen Rückhalt, um mich sicher zu fühlen. Ich beherrsche die Grundkommandos und möchte alles richtig machen – aber ich brauche weiter konsequente Führung und Training. Geschirr tragen finde ich noch etwas komisch, auch hier wird weitere Routine mir sehr gut tun. Die Grundkommandos beherrsche ich gut. Leider habe ich in meinem früheren Leben ein Kind gebissen, deshalb brauche ich eine sichere und verantwortungsvolle Führung. Das Maulkorbtragen kenne ich. Ich wünsche mir ein erfahrenes Zuhause, das eher am Stadtrand oder ländlich gelegen ist. Kinder sollten nicht im Haushalt leben. Wenn du mich kennenlernen möchtest, melde dich gern über das untenstehende Anfrageformular oder telefonisch im Struppi-Haus unter (tgl 13-16 Uhr außer samstags).

About Zeus

What life with Zeus looks like

Zeus is a large adult rottweiler dog waiting at Tierheim Berlin Falkenberg in Berlin.

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 Zeus, answered.

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