Atlas

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

Atlas - Male - Unneutered - Age: Adult - Approximately 5 years - Born: September 2022 - Size: Medium - Location: Montenegro - Private with animal rights activist Milica in Sutomore Short description: Foster home wanted - Leishmaniasis positive - People-oriented, but fear aggression when cornered - Looking for an experienced dog home without small children Adoption fee: €400 To the information sheet "Find a foster home" * When Atlas was found, he was in a catastrophic condition - he is Leishmaniasis positive and was in the middle of an active phase. Fortunately, the local animal rights activists were able to treat him and he has recovered well. However, the hair on two parts of his body has not grown back - this visual defect does not bother him. With regular check-ups at the vet, Leishmaniasis can usually be managed well. Atlas shows himself to be generally people-oriented despite his dark past - he greets us friendly and also enjoys petting. However, physical crowding quickly makes him afraid, which can then switch to aggressive behavior. We therefore wish for Atlas a foster home/interested parties without small children in the household, who let the dog come to rest in peace and help him patiently gain more confidence in his new environment. We have suitable dog trainers in our network who can support this. ______________ Are you interested in Atlas? General note: The behaviors listed here are shown by the animal in its current environment. The animal's behavior may change in a new environment and in a new context or the animal may show itself differently. We can only provide information to the best of our knowledge about how the animal behaves currently. We will be supporting you especially in the initial period and help with the settling in.

VIERBEINER Atlas Geschlecht : Rüde • kastriert Alter : Errwachsen • ca. 5 Jahre • 09/2022 geboren Größe : Mittelgroß Aufenthaltsort : in Montenegro • privat bei Tierschützerin Milica in Sutomore Kurzbeschreibung : Pflegestelle gesucht • Leishmaniose positiv • menschenbezogen, aber Angstaggression bei Bedrängung • sucht hundeerfahrenes Zuhause ohne kleine Kinder Schutzgebühr : 400 € Zum Interessentenbogen Informationen „Pflegestelle werden“ Beschreibung * Als Atlas gefunden wurde, war er in einem katastrophalen Zustand – er ist Leishmaniose positiv und war mitten in einem aktiven Schub. Zum Glück konnte er von den Tierschützerinnen vor Ort behandelt werden und hat sich soweit gut erholt. An zwei Stellen an seinem Körper ist das Fell allerdings nicht mehr wiedergekommen – ihn stört dieser optische Makel aber nicht. Mit regelmäßigen Kontrollen beim Tierarzt kann Leishmaniose in der Regel gut gemanaged werden. Atlas zeigt sich trotz seiner düsteren Vergangenheit grundsätzlich als menschenbezogen – er begrüßt uns freundlich und genießt auch gerne Streicheleinheiten. Allerdings macht ihm körperliche Bedrängung noch schnell Angst, die dann in aggressives Verhalten umspringen kann. Wir wünschen uns für Atlas daher eine Pflegestelle/Interessent*innen ohne kleine Kinder im Haushalt, die den Rüden in Ruhe ankommen lassen und ihm geduldig helfen, in seiner neuen Umgebung mehr Vertrauen zu fassen. Wir haben geeignete Hundetrainer*innen in unserem Netzwerk, die hierbei unterstützen können. ____________ Hast Du Interesse an Atlas?

About Atlas

What life with Atlas looks like

Atlas is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Caramelli Rescue Montenegro in Nationwide.

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 Montenegro

The shelter typically completes the animal's vaccinations, microchipping, and pet passport before adoption. Specific fees and process details vary by shelter and country — confirm directly via the contact details in the sidebar.

Frequently asked

Adopting Atlas, answered.

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