Basinco

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 9 years

A long time ago, the four dogs lived with some other dogs behind the Centro Commerciale Terranova. Each one knew the strays, who had always lived their whole life free. Last year, after a new Arca Planet store opened on site, the dogs ventured a bit closer to humans, as they were fed and watered here. Nevertheless, these dogs are all very shy and it was rare to get close to them (see video from September 2019). A major problem, however, was the health of the animals, some of whom were visibly ill, making it essential to catch them. After countless failed attempts, it was finally possible to capture the four and bring them to our cooperative animal shelter. Here they were named BASILIO, BASINCA, BASINCO and BASEL. Leishmaniasis - no panic please! Although the disease naturally brings a certain fear, dogs with this infection or disease can now reach a normal lifespan with timely detection and optimal treatment. If you decide to give a home to a dog with this handicap - the association will of course accompany you closely, create the therapy plan for you and if necessary also support you with the laboratory costs of the blood test. If you would like to offer one of the dogs a place as a family member in a foster home or final home, please contact: .

Schon lange lebten die Vier zusammen mit einigen anderen Hunden hinter dem Centro Commerciale Terranova. Ein jeder kannte die Streuner, die ihr ganzes Leben immer frei gelebt haben. Im letzten Jahr, nachdem vor Ort ein neuer Arca Planet Laden eröffnete, trauten sich die Hunde etwas näher an Menschen heran, wurden sie doch hier mit Futter und Wasser versorgt. Dennoch sind diese Hunde alle sehr scheu und nur selten konnte man sich ihnen auf wenige Schritte nähern (siehe Video vom September 2019) . Ein großes Problem war aber vor allem die Gesundheit der Tiere, einige von ihnen waren sichtbar erkrankt, so dass es unabdingbar war sie einzufangen. Nach unzähligen Fehlversuchen gelang es dann zum Jahresende der Vier habhaft zu werden und sie in unser Kooperationstierheim zu bringen. Hier wurden sie auf BASILIO, BASINCA, BASINCO und BASEL getauft. Leishmaniose – keine Panik bitte! Auch wenn die Krankheit natürlich einen gewissen Schrecken mit sich bringt, so können inzwischen auch Hunde mit dieser Infektion bzw. Erkrankung bei rechtzeitiger Erkennung und optimaler Behandlung ein ganz normales Lebensalter erreichen. Sollten SIE sich entscheiden einem Hund mit diesem Handicap ein Zuhause schenken zu wollen – der Verein wird Sie selbstverständlich engmaschig begleiten, den Therapieplan für Sie erstellen und wenn notwendig auch bei den anfallenden Laborkosten der Blutuntersuchung unterstützen. Wenn Sie einem der Hunde einen Platz als Familienmitglied auf einer Pflegestelle oder Endstelle anbieten möchten, dann melden Sie sich bitte unter: .

About Basinco

What life with Basinco looks like

Basinco is a large senior mixed breed dog waiting at SardinienHunde e.V. in Germany.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇩🇪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 Basinco, answered.

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