Berto

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 7 years

Berto – his heart is full of curiosity and trust → Breed: mixed breed→ Gender: male→ Born: 11/2018 → Size: 52 cm, 25 kg→ neutered: yes→ vaccinated: yes→ Identification: Chip→ Compatible with: male dogs and female dogs→ Incompatible with: k.A.Brief description: Our dear male dog Berto is at the perfect age and already proudly sports his silvery snout, which gives him a special charm. His entire life has been spent in a kennel – without ever experiencing the security of a family. Now it's high time that he finally gets to discover the world! He dreams of walks through meadows and forests, of new scents and exciting adventures that wait for him outside. Everything is still new to him: walking on a leash, wearing a collar or harness – in short, he has a lot to learn. But with patience, love, and understanding, he will master all of it, for his heart is full of curiosity and trust. His gentle, friendly nature makes him a very special dog. He is compatible with other dogs and shows openness and kindness towards people. For him, we wish a home where he can finally arrive – with people who will give him security and explore the world together with him step by step. {youtube} Note: This animal is still located abroad and is seeking a foster or permanent home.

Berto – sein Herz ist voller Neugier und Vertrauen → Rasse: Mischling→ Geschlecht: männlich→ Geboren: 11/2018 → Grösse: 52 cm, 25 kg→ Kastriert: ja→ Geimpft: ja→ Kennzeichnung: Chip→ Verträglich mit: Rüden und Hündinnen→ Unverträglich mit: k.A.Beschreibung: Unser lieber Rüde Berto ist im besten Alter und trägt bereits stolz seine silbergraue Schnauze, die ihm einen ganz besonderen Charme verleiht. Sein Leben lang hat er in einer Pension verbracht – ohne je die Geborgenheit einer eigenen Familie kennenzulernen. Nun ist es höchste Zeit, dass er endlich die Welt entdecken darf! Er träumt von Spaziergängen über Wiesen und Wälder, von neuen Gerüchen und spannenden Abenteuern, die draußen auf ihn warten. Alles ist für ihn noch neu: das Laufen an der Leine, das Tragen von Halsband oder Geschirr – kurz gesagt, er muss noch vieles lernen. Doch mit Geduld, Liebe und Verständnis wird er all das meistern, denn sein Herz ist voller Neugier und Vertrauen. Seine sanfte, freundliche Art macht ihn zu einem ganz besonderen Hund. Mit anderen Hunden ist er verträglich, und gegenüber Menschen zeigt er sich aufgeschlossen und liebenswert. Für ihn wünschen wir uns ein Zuhause, in dem er endlich ankommen darf – bei Menschen, die ihm Geborgenheit schenken und gemeinsam mit ihm Schritt für Schritt die Welt entdecken. {youtube} Hinweis: Dieses Tier befindet sich noch im Ausland und sucht einen Pflege- oder Endplatz.

About Berto

What life with Berto looks like

Berto is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein Franz von Assisi e.V. in Germany.

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 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Berto, answered.

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