Amigo

Cane Corso · Male · Adult · 5 years

Amigo ist ein 1,5 Jahre alter Cane Corso-Boxer-Mischling, der mit seinen 70 cm Schulterhöhe und seiner stürmischen Art jede Menge Energie mitbringt. Amigo kam ursprünglich über eine Sicherstellung durch das Ordnungsamt zu uns. Der junge Rüde ist ein echtes Kraftpaket, der noch viel Erziehung benötigt und sich nach konsequenter Führung sehnt. Aufgrund seines Temperaments und seiner Größe sind erfahrene Hundebesitzer gefragt, die ihm die nötige Struktur und klare Grenzen setzen können. Amigo leidet unter Entropium, einer Augenkrankheit, die bereits zweimal operiert wurde. Er muss regelmäßig zur Nachsorge, was jedoch gut im Griff ist. Trotz dieser Herausforderung ist Amigo ein fröhlicher, neugieriger Hund, der sich nach einer stabilen Bezugsperson sehnt, die ihm Sicherheit und Liebe bietet. Da er ein stürmisches Wesen hat, sollte seine neue Familie keine kleinen Kinder haben – ältere, standfeste Kinder sind jedoch kein Problem. Amigo braucht Menschen, die ihn liebevoll, aber bestimmt führen, damit er zu einem treuen Begleiter heranwachsen kann.

About Amigo

What life with Amigo looks like

Amigo is an extra-large adult cane corso dog waiting at Tierheim Witten in Witten.

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 Amigo, answered.

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