Adopt Carlo

Mixed Breed · Female

Carlo came to us because his former home could no longer take care of him. He knows life as a farm dog, together with a female dog. We experience Carlo as a friendly dog and can imagine placing him in a family with children. He gets along well with female dogs but does not get along well with other male dogs. We wish for Carlo a rural or suburban home where he doesn't have to climb many stairs and might even have his own garden to lie in the sun.

Carlo kam zu uns, da man sich in seinem früheren Zuhause nicht mehr um ihn kümmern konnte. Er kennt das Leben als Hofhund, zusammen mit einer Hündin zusammen. Wir erleben Carlo als menschenfreundlichen Hund und können uns vorstellen, ihn auch in eine Familie mit Kindern zu vermitteln. Mit Hündinnen ist er nach Sympathie verträglich, andere Rüden kann er nicht recht leiden. Für Carlo wünschen wir uns ein ländlich oder am Stadtrand gelegenes Zuhause, in dem er nicht viele Treppen steigen muss und vielleicht sogar seinen eigenen Garten hat, um in der Sonne zu liegen.

About Carlo

What life with Carlo looks like

Carlo is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Schlage 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 Carlo, answered.

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