How do I contact the shelter about Benno?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Refugio Casas Ibanez e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Benno on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Benno if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Refugio Casas Ibanez 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.

Is Benno 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 Benno 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 Refugio Casas Ibanez e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Benno 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.

Benno

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 2 years

Benno The little Benno reminds one of a small polar bear when one sees his beautiful fur and loyal eyes. We were able to take Benno over from an animal welfare worker who does animal welfare work in Cyprus. She urgently needed support and since we had a suitable foster home available, the young man was allowed to travel to Germany from there to then search for a family. Benno lives in his Cypriot foster home great with other dogs and also a cat. Together chilling and cuddling, as well as cuddling are his favorites. We will report more when Benno has arrived at his foster home.

Benno Der kleine Benno erinnert an einen kleinen Eisbär, wenn man sein schönes Fell und die treuen Augen sieht. Wir konnten Benno von einer Tierschützerin übernehmen, die Tierschutz auf Zypern macht. Sie brauchte dringend Unterstützung und das wir eine passende Pflegestelle frei hatten, durfte der junge Mann nach Deutschland reisen, um von dort aus dann auf die Familiensuche zu gehen. Benno lebt in seiner zyprischen Pflegestelle prima mit anderen Hunden und auch einer Katze zusammen. Gemeinsam chillen und kuscheln, sowie kuscheln sind so seine Favoriten. Wir werden mehr berichten, wenn Benno in seiner Pflegestelle eingetroffen ist.

About Benno

What life with Benno looks like

Benno is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Refugio Casas Ibanez e.V. in Wiesbaden.

An young 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 Germany

German rescues typically require an in-person home visit (Vorkontrolle) or detailed video home check before approving adoption. Animals leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with a valid EU pet passport. Adoption fees usually fall between €250 and €450, covering veterinary preparation.
