Adopt Chicco

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Senior · 9 years

Name: Chicco. Breed: Mixed breed. Age: Born mid-June 2017. Gender: Male. Size: approx. 55 cm. Neutered: Not yet. Location / Country: Italy. Description: Chicco wishes so much for a forever home. Chicco was left at the door of an animal rescuer along with his 4 siblings. They had been taken from their mother and discarded without a second thought. The puppies were very lucky; the animal rescuer immediately took loving care of them, ensuring they grew up well-socialized alongside other dogs and cats. Some of Chicco's brothers have already found wonderful homes in Germany, unfortunately, Chicco hasn't had such luck and is still waiting for his family. We have received new pictures of Chicco and he has grown into a beautiful dog. Chicco would make a great companion for a nice family. He gets along well with other animals and could also live happily with cats in his new home. Who would like to give Chicco a permanent home? Cat-friendly: Yes. Compatible with other animals: With male dogs, with female dogs. Contact person: Frau Gerlinde Kolubka. Email: « Garibaldi Livio ». Gets along with other dogs.

Name: Chicco. Rasse: MischlingAlter: Geboren Mitte Juni 2017. Geschlecht: männlichGröße: ca. 55 cm. Kastriert/Sterilisiert: noch nicht Aufenthalts Ort / Land: Italien Beschreibung Chicco wünscht sich so sehr ein -Für-immer-Körbchen- Chicco wurde zusammen mit seinen 4 Geschwistern vor der Tür einer Tierschützerin ausgesetzt. Man hatte die Babies einfach der Mutter entrissen und kurzerhand entsorgt. Die Kleinen hatten grosses Glück, selbstverständlich hat die Tierschützerin sich sofort liebevoll um sie gekümmert, sodass sie gut sozialisiert, zusammen mit anderen Hunden und Katzen aufwachsen konnten. Einige von Chicco’s Brüdern haben schon ein tolles Zuhause in Deutschland gefunden, Chicco hatte leider noch kein Glück und wartet noch immer auf seine Familie. Wir haben neue Bilder von Chicco bekommen und er ist zu einem wunderschönen Hund herangewachsen. Chicco wäre ein toller Begleiter für eine nette Familie. Er ist verträglich mit seinen Artgenossen und Katzen könnten auch gerne in seinem neuen Zuhause leben. Wer möchte Chicco endlich ein endgültiges Zuhause schenken? Katzenverträglich: Ja. Verträglich mit Artgenossen: mit Rüden, mit Hündinnen Ansprechpartner: Frau Gerlinde Kolubka Email: « Garibaldi Livio » Weitere Hunde

About Chicco

What life with Chicco looks like

Chicco is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at Adozioni del cuore e.V. in Wedel.

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 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 Chicco, answered.

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