Amaretto

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 4 years

Cuddly Amaretto is looking for his forever home 🏠 Amaretto was born with his siblings in the city near the town hall. Unfortunately, the dog family was not allowed to stay and the dog catchers were called to have them killed. Luckily, our dear Cristina was able to save the dogs from death. They currently live in the animal shelter in Borsa, Romania. Amaretto is a funny and cheerful dog. He is open and social. The handsome male dog gets along very well with other dogs, whether big or small, and makes the animal shelter unsafe with them. He is also very open to people. He always seeks contact and sometimes becomes a bit pushy. Amaretto grew up in the animal shelter and has therefore only experienced few environmental stimuli. That's why we are looking for people with patience who can slowly introduce him to the big world. 🌏 He is probably a livestock guardian dog, so we are looking for people with dog experience and those who are already familiar with these breeds and have a house/yard with a garden. Have you fallen in love with the cuddly big guy? Then please contact us. He can leave immediately. This is our assessment of Amaretto's current behavior, how he will show himself in Germany, we cannot predict. Like us humans, every dog can change and develop. YouTube Video Link to Playlist:

Knuffiger Amaretto sucht seinen Platz auf Lebenszeit 🏠 Amaretto wurde zusammen mit seinen Geschwistern von seiner Mama in der Stadt beim Rathaus zur Welt gebracht. Leider wollte man nicht, dass die Hundefamilie dort bleibt und hat die Hundefänger angerufen, um sie töten zu lassen. Zum Glück hat unsere liebe Cristina die Hunde vor dem Tod retten können. Aktuell leben sie im Tierheim in Borsa, Rumänien. Amaretto zeigt sich als lustiger und fröhlicher Kerl. Er ist aufgeschlossen und sozial. Der hübsche Rüde versteht sich mit den anderen Hunden, egal ob groß oder klein, sehr gut und macht das Tierheim gemeinsam mit ihnen unsicher. Auch Menschen gegenüber zeigt er sich sehr aufgeschlossen. Er sucht immerzu den Kontakt und wird manchmal auch etwas aufdringlich. Amaretto ist im Tierheim aufgewachsen und hat somit nur wenig Umweltreize kennengelernt. Deshalb suchen wir für ihn Menschen mit Geduld, die ihn langsam an die große Welt gewöhnen. 🌏 Er ist vermutlich ein Herdenschutzhund, deshalb suchen wir für ihn Menschen mit Hundeerfahrung und welche, die sich bereits mit diesen Rassen auskennen und ein Haus/Hof mit Garten besitzen. Hast du dich in den kuscheligen großen Kerl verliebt? Dann melde dich gerne bei uns. Er kann sofort ausreisen. Dies ist unsere Einschätzung des aktuellen Verhaltens von Amaretto, wie er sich in Deutschland zeigen wird, können wir nicht voraussagen. Jeder Hund kann sich genau wie wir Menschen verändern und entwickeln. YouTube Video Link zur Playlist:

About Amaretto

What life with Amaretto looks like

Amaretto is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Mischlingsliebe e.V. in Germany.

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

Frequently asked

Adopting Amaretto, answered.

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