Bruno

Pointer · Male · Adult · 4 years

Male, approximately April 2022, 55 cm tall, mix breed, compatible with dogs, unknown compatibility with children, incompatible with cats. We do not know why his family abandoned him. Maybe he was too big? Too active? Bruno's home was a small backyard kennel and a small hut. But a handsome fellow like Bruno needs exercise, wants to experience adventures, play, and learn about the world. Confined to the small kennel, he suffered greatly. At the shelter, he now shows what a great boy he is. For him, there is nothing better than petting. He is very excited when it's time for a walk, and he has no problems with other dogs. However, he does not get along with cats, meaning he is only suitable for a home without cats. Do you think this lively fellow would be a great fit for your active lifestyle? Are you not afraid to work with him and teach him everything he needs to know as a family member? Excellent! Check out our website and contact us! We will get back to you.

Rasse: Mix Geschlecht: männlich Geboren ca. April 2022 Schulterhöhe: ca. 55 cm Verträglich mit Hunden: ja Verträglich mit Kindern: nicht bekannt Verträglich mit Katzen: nein Warum seine Familie ihn verstoßen hat, wissen wir nicht. Zu groß vielleicht? Zu aktiv? Ein Zwinger im Hinterhof, eine kleine Hütte – das war Brunos Zuhause. Doch ein Prachtbursche wie Bruno braucht Bewegung, will Abenteuer erleben, spielen, die Welt kennenlernen. Eingesperrt in dem kleinen Zwinger litt er sehr. Im Refugio zeigt er nun, was für ein toller Kerl er ist. Für ihn gibt es nichts Schöneres als Streicheleinheiten. Wenn es zum Spaziergang geht, freut er sich total, und mit anderen Hunden hat er keine Schwierigkeiten. Mit Katzen hingegen kommt er nicht zurecht, d.h. für ihn kommt nur ein Zuhause ohne Katzen infrage. Du findest, dass dieser muntere Geselle ganz hervorragend zu Deinem aktiven Lebensstil passen würde? Du scheust Dich nicht, mit ihm zu arbeiten und ihm alles beizubringen, was er als Familienmitglied wissen muss? Hervorragend!

About Bruno

What life with Bruno looks like

Bruno is a adult pointer dog waiting at Tierfreunde im Fläming 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. Tierfreunde im Fläming 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 — Tierfreunde im Fläming 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 Tierfreunde im Fläming 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.
