Arlo

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy · 9 months

Arlo, born approximately February 2026, neutered, fully grown approximately 60 cm shoulder height, in the shelter since May 2026 Arlo is a lively puppy. He is very playful, cheerful and active and enjoys attention from people. Arlo gets along very well with other dogs and seeks playmates. In the shelter, he is becoming bolder and is slowly venturing out on his own without his mother. The white female behind him in the pictures is his mother. The two were found together on the street. Since he is probably part Herding Dog, he may develop corresponding behaviors as he grows. Therefore, we are looking for a rural home with a fenced garden, preferably for people who have already gained experience with Herding Dogs or their crossbreeds and appreciate their characteristics. Currently in Romania and allowed to leave if a home is found. Travels chipped and vaccinated (EU vaccination passport; vaccinations: rabies and basic immunization). All dogs are neutered at the age of 7 to 9 months. A 4D-SNAP test is performed, which only reflects the infection status at the time of the test and cannot reliably exclude a previous or very recent infection. They are also treated for intestinal parasites and ectoparasites on arrival at the shelter and at least once a year thereafter. The described behavioral observations are based on everyday life in the shelter and may be different in a domestic environment under changed living conditions. The transport (registered with Traces) will be organized and carried out by us, as far as legally possible for the destination country. Please note the information on this page.

06/2026 Arlo, geboren ca. 02/2026, kastriert, ausgewachsen ca. 60 cm Schulterhöhe, im Shelter seit 05/2026 Arlo ist ein munterer Welpe. Er zeigt sich sehr verspielt, fröhlich und aktiv und freut sich, wenn er Aufmerksamkeit von Menschen bekommt. Mit anderen Hunden kommt Arlo sehr gut zurecht und sucht Spielgefährten. Im Shelter wird er immer mutiger und traut sich langsam auch schon ohne seine Mama auf Entdeckungstour zu gehen. Die weiße Hündin hinter ihm auf den Bildern ist seine Mutter. Die beiden wurden gemeinsam auf der Straße gefunden. Da er vermutlich zum Teil Herdenschutzhund ist, kann es sein, dass er mit dem Heranwachsen entsprechende Verhaltensweisen entwickelt. Daher wünschen wir uns für ihn ein ländlich gelegenes Zuhause mit einem eingezäunten Garten, bestenfalls bei Menschen die bereits Erfahrung mit Herdenschutzhunden oder deren Mischlingen sammeln konnten und deren Eigenschaften zu schätzen wissen. Befindet sich aktuell in Rumänien und darf ausreisen, wenn er ein Zuhause gefunden hat. Reist gechipt und geimpft (EU Impfpass; Impfungen: Tollwut und Grundimmunisierung). Alle Hunde werden im Alter von 7 bis 9 Monaten kastriert. Hierbei wird ein 4D-SNAP-Test durchgeführt, der lediglich den Infektionsstatus zum Zeitpunkt der Testung wiederspiegelt und eine frühere oder sehr frische Infektion nicht sicher ausschließen kann. Ebenso werden sie bei ihrer Ankunft im Shelter sowie anschließend mindestens einmal jährlich gegen Darmparasiten und Ektoparasiten behandelt. Die geschilderten Verhaltensbeobachtungen basieren auf dem Alltag im Shelter und können sich in einem häuslichen Umfeld unter veränderten Lebensbedingungen entsprechend anders darstellen. Der Transport (angemeldet mit Traces) wird von uns, so weit es für das Bestimmungsland rechtlich möglich ist, organisiert und durchgeführt. Bitte beachten Sie die Informationen auf dieser Seite:

About Arlo

What life with Arlo looks like

Arlo is a large puppy mixed breed dog waiting at Hope for Future e.V. in Germany.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇩🇪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 Arlo, answered.

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