How do I contact the shelter about Chelo?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierischgeholfen e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Chelo on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Chelo if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierischgeholfen 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 Chelo 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 Chelo 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 Tierischgeholfen e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Chelo and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.

Chelo

Greyhound · Female

Chelo came to us with her mother Cheni and another dog named Chapu; we suspect they are related. Her previous owner could no longer care for them. He had no time for the dogs and therefore gave them up. She grew up freely on a rural property and arrived at our shelter fearful. She has not learned much so far, and positive contact with humans was also an exception in her life so far. Now she is slowly learning to trust us. Every day she becomes a little braver and learns that there are no dangers here for her. Chelo is looking for patient people who will give her time to settle in. People who will show her the new world with love and understanding.The beautiful girl is a very gentle dog. She gets along well with other dogs, already walks passably on a leash and drives problem-free in the car. Chelo loves walks, even if the new stimuli sometimes seem a bit scary to her, she likes to be outdoors. We are sure that this lovable female dog will come out of herself over time in a loving, experienced, patient home and enjoy life with her human being to the fullest. Who gives Chelo hope? Information about Greyhounds As with most animals from abroad, Chelo will also have to get used to life in her new home first, as she is not familiar with large crowds of people or loud city traffic from Spain. But we are confident that she will settle well. We wish for her a home in a rural area (or outskirts) where she can enjoy nature with her humans. We are looking for people who are willing to get used to this great dog with patience, time and love. Please note: The feedback from the animal shelters reflects the current behavior of those here

Beschreibung Unsere Tierschützer berichten: Chelo kam zusammen mit ihrer Mutter Cheni und einem anderen Hund namens Chapu zu uns; wir vermuten, dass sie miteinander verwandt sind. Ihr früherer Besitzer konnte sich nicht mehr um sie kümmern. Er hatte keine Zeit für die Hunde und deshalb hat er sie abgegeben. Sie ist frei auf einem ländlichen Grundstück aufgewachsen und kam ängstlich bei uns an. Sie hat bisher nicht viel kennen gelernt, und der positive Kontakt zum Menschen war auch eher eine Ausnahme in ihrem bisherigen Leben. Nun lernt sie langsam, uns zu vertrauen. Jeden Tag wird sie etwas mutiger und lernt, dass ihr hier keine Gefahren drohen. Chelo sucht geduldige Menschen, die ihr Zeit geben um anzukommen. Menschen, die ihr mit Liebe und Verstand die neue Welt zeigen.Die wunderschöne Hündin ist eine sehr sanftmütige Hündin. Sie versteht sich gut mit anderen Hunden, läuft auch schon passabel an der Leine und fährt problemlos im Auto mit. Chelo liebt Spaziergänge, auch wenn ihr die neuen Reize ab und an noch etwas gruselig erscheinen, so ist sie doch gerne unterwegs. Wir sind sicher, dass diese liebenswerte Hündin in einem liebevollen, erfahrenen, geduldigen Zuhause mit der Zeit aus sich heraus kommen wird und das Leben zusammen mit ihrem Menschen in vollen Zügen genießen wird. Wer schenkt Chelo Hoffnung? Informationen zum Greyhound Wie bei den meisten Tieren aus dem Ausland wird auch Chelo sich erst an das Leben im neuen Zuhause gewöhnen müssen, kennt sie doch aus Spanien weder große Menschenmengen noch lauten Autoverkehr einer Stadt. Aber wir sind zuversichtlich, dass sie sich gut einleben wird. Wir wünschen uns für sie ein Zuhause in einer ländlichen Umgebung (oder Stadtrand), in dem sie mit ihren Menschen die Natur genießen kann. Wir suchen Menschen, die bereit sind diesen tollen Hund mit Geduld, Zeit und auf liebevolle Weise an das Leben und das neue Zuhause zu gewöhnen.

About Chelo

What life with Chelo looks like

Chelo is a large adult greyhound dog waiting at Tierischgeholfen e.V. in Germany.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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.
