Bruno

Podenco · Male · Adult · 7 years

Bruno Bruno was left behind by the hunter where he lived. Due to the heavy rain, the river overflowed its banks and left Bruno defenseless. Fortunately, he was rescued just in time from drowning. Now, although he is safe at the animal shelter, the lively male dog should definitely get a warm and cozy dog bed soon. His traumatic past is far from evident in the open Bruno. Surely, he doesn't know what home life is like. It's high time that changed. Who will give him the chance at a real home? Taking care of an animal shelter dog is always a special challenge. The dogs bring a backpack full of past experiences or unlearned situations and need time to adjust to their new lives. Would you take on the challenge and give the sweet male dog a home? Bruno would also be happy in a foster home. Videos of Bruno:

Bruno Bruno wurde von dem Jäger, bei dem er lebte, zurückgelassen. Durch den starken Regen lief der Fluss über das Ufer und Bruno blieb schutzlos zurück. Zum Glück konnte er vor dem Ertrinken gerettet werden. Nun ist er im Tierheim zwar in Sicherheit, aber der fröhliche Rüde sollte unbedingt schnell ein warmes und kuscheliges Hundebett bekommen. Seine schreckliche Vergangenheit merkt man dem aufgeschlossenen Bruno gar nicht an. Sicher kennt er das Leben im Haus nicht. Nun ist es höchste Zeit, dass sich das ändert. Wer gibt ihm die Chance auf ein echtes Zuhause? Die Verantwortung für einen Tierschutzhund ist immer eine besondere Herausforderung. Die Hunde bringen einen Rucksack mit vergangenen Erlebnissen oder ungelernten Situationen mit und brauchen Zeit sich an ihr neues Leben zu gewöhnen. Möchten Sie die Herausforderung annehmen und dem süßen Rüden ein Zuhause schenken? Auch über eine Pflegestelle würde Bruno sich freuen. Videos von Bruno: Video 1 Video 2

About Bruno

What life with Bruno looks like

Bruno is a adult podenco dog waiting at SALVA Hundehilfe 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 Bruno, answered.

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