Adopt Campino

American Staffordshire Terrier · Male · Senior · 9 years

Campino is already over 4.5 long years in our care. Thanks to kind sponsors, he now awaits in the Gini House in Baia Mare. In this pension, he has much better living conditions than in the cramped shelter in Zalau, where he previously stayed, such as being able to enjoy a little free run daily, but he still spends the vast majority of long days and nights, alone, in a kennel. Campino longs for so much more – a family that loves him and finally gives him his own home. His best years are passing by… Campino is now approaching 8 years old and is slowly approaching senior age. His height is around 55 cm and weighs about 26 kg. He is a friendly male dog who greatly enjoys the company and attention of people. Every time we visit Romania, we feel the loving gaze he gives us and his longing for human companionship. Campinos front legs are deformed because he received too little calcium in his puppyhood. Although this impairment does not restrict him in his everyday life, we do not want to omit mentioning it. Campino would certainly be happy about shorter, regular excursions into nature, but the presence of a larger garden could also satisfy him. In his new home, there should not be too many stairs. Campino is a loving dog who deserves to be pampered and cared for. He wishes for people who are ready to take him by the paw and lead him into his new life. Although he hasn’t learned much so far, that will not prevent him from trying with full dedication. We also see Campino with older people who can provide him with the necessary peace and attention. Campino wants to be a solo prince in his future home.

Campino ist bereits über 4,5 lange Jahre in unserer Obhut. Dank lieber Paten wartet er nun im Gini House in Baia Mare. In dieser Pension, hat er zwar viel bessere Lebensbedingungen als im engen Shelter von Zalau, wo er zuvor einsaß, z.B. darf er auch täglich etwas Freilauf genießen, doch er sitzt trotzdem den ganz überwiegenden Teil der langen Tage und Nächte, einsam in einem Kennel. Campino sehnt sich nach so viel mehr – nach einer Familie, die ihn liebt und ihm endlich ein eigenes Zuhause schenkt. Seine besten Jahre ziehen vorüber… Campino wird nun schon an die 8 Jahre alt sein und nähert sich langsam dem Seniorenalter. Seine Größe beträgt ca. 55 cm und bringt etwa 26 kg auf die Waage. Er ist ein freundlicher Rüde, der die Nähe und Aufmerksamkeit von Menschen sehr genießt. Jedes Mal, wenn wir in Rumänien zu Besuch sind, spüren wir den liebevollen Blick, den er uns zuwirft und die Sehnsucht nach eigenen Menschen. Campinos Vorderbeine sind verformt, da er im Welpenalter zu wenig Kalzium erhalten hat. Obwohl diese Beeinträchtigung ihn im Alltag nicht einschränkt, möchten wir sie nicht unerwähnt lassen. Campino würde sich bestimmt über kürzere, regelmäßige Ausflüge in die Natur freuen, aber auch das Vorhandensein eines größeren Gartens könnte ihn schon zufrieden machen. In seinem neuen Zuhause sollten nicht zu viele Treppen vorhanden sein. Campino ist ein liebevoller Hund, der es verdient hat, verwöhnt und umsorgt zu werden. Er wünscht sich Menschen, die bereit sind, ihn an der Pfote zu nehmen und in sein neues Leben zu führen. Er hat bis jetzt zwar einiges nicht gelernt, doch das wird ihn nicht davon abhalten, es mit voller Hingabe zu versuchen. Wir sehen Campino auch mit älteren Menschen, die ihm die nötige Ruhe und Aufmerksamkeit bieten können. Campino möchte in seinem zukünftigen Zuhause Einzelprinz sein.

About Campino

What life with Campino looks like

Campino is a senior american staffordshire terrier dog waiting at Arme Hundeseelen in Năsăud.

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 Romania

Romanian rescues handle the highest volume of cross-border adoptions in the EU. Animals are quarantined and fully vetted before transport. Reputable rescues maintain detailed health records and post-adoption follow-up.

Frequently asked

Adopting Campino, answered.

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