Alvaro

Mixed Breed · Male

Alvaro's motto: Life is beautiful with just three legs! The handsome male dog was found in a street ditch. Fortunately, he was discovered in time, or he wouldn't have survived. Unfortunately, his left hind leg was irreparably injured and had to be amputated. As if Alvaro knew he had narrowly escaped death, he clearly enjoys his life! To make his adventures easier, he now also has a wheelchair, with which he can move around very nimbly. The ideal new home for Alvaro should have as few stairs as possible and a garden. Larger children and fellow animals wouldn't be a problem for Alvaro, because after all, everyone can play wonderfully together.

Alvaros Motto: Auch mit nur 3 Beinen ist das Leben schön! Der wunderschöne Rüde wurde im Straßengraben gefunden. Zum Glück wurde er rechtzeitig entdeckt, sonst hätte er nicht überlebt. Leider war sein linkes Hinterbein irreparabel verletzt und musste amputiert werden. Als wüsste Alvaro, dass er dem Tod von der Schippe gesprungen ist – er genießt sichtlich sein Leben! Damit ihm Unternehmungen leichter fallen besitzt, er nun auch einen Rollstuhl, mit dem er sich bereits sehr flott vorbewegen kann. Das ideale neue Zuhause für Alvaro sollte möglichst wenig Treppen und einen Garten haben. Größere Kinder und Artgenossen wären für Alvaro kein Problem, denn schließlich kann man mit allen wunderbar spielen. quirlig, aufgeweckt, neugierig, frech, freundlich, verschmust, unerzogen verträglich, verspielt

About Alvaro

What life with Alvaro looks like

Alvaro is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Feucht in Feucht.

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 Alvaro, answered.

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