Alkis

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 10 years

June 2016 | 56cm | 23kg | Alkis lives together with his sister Alice since puppy age in the animal shelter our shelter. The two came to the animal shelter together with their siblings, who were all rehomed. Alkis and Alice unfortunately stayed behind. They have been searching for a home for 10 years already. In the shelter, the two show they are one heart and one soul. They lie together in the sun, sleep together, and play together. Alkis shows himself to be very social and compatible towards other dogs. Generally, he is a very relaxed and affectionate male dog who is ready to find his Forever Home! Also, cats are no problem for Alkis. These do not interest him in the shelter 😊 He is open and cuddly towards people. He loves cuddling very much and would like to be scratched all day. 😊 Our biggest wish would be to find a shared home for the two of them to show you how wonderful life outside the shelter can be in the last years!🫶🏻 Of course, a home alone is also possible.

*Juni 2016 | 56cm | 23kg | Tierheim auf Rhodos Alkis lebt gemeinsam mit seiner Schwester Alice seit Welpenalter im Shelter. Die Beiden kamen damals mit ihren Geschwistern, die alle vermittelt wurden, gemeinsam ins Tierheim. Alkis und Alice blieben leider zurück. Seit 10 Jahren suchen sie bereits ein Zuhause. Im Shelter zeigen die beiden sich als ein Herz und eine Seele. Sie liegen gemeinsam in der Sonne, schlafen zusammen und spielen zusammen. Gegenüber anderen Hunden zeigt Alkis sich als sehr sozial und verträglich. Allgemein ist er ein sehr entspannter und liebevoller Rüde, der bereit ist, auf sein Für Immer Zuhause! Auch Katzen sind für Alkis kein Problem. Diese interessieren ihn im Shelter nicht 😊 Menschen gegenüber ist er aufgeschlossen und verkuschelt . Er liebt Kuscheln sehr und möchte am liebsten den ganzen Tag gekrault werden. 😊 Unser größter Wunsch wäre es, ein gemeinsames Zuhause für die beiden zu finden, um Ihnen die letzten Jahre zu zeigen, wie schön das Leben außerhalb vom Shelter sein kann!🫶🏻 Natürlich ist auch ein Zuhause alleine möglich.

About Alkis

What life with Alkis looks like

Alkis is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at og:image in Germany.

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 Alkis, answered.

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