Chicco

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 8 months

Size: medium, approximately 45–50 cm at the shoulder. Location: Romania. Chicco was once a pet dog owned by a family. However, Chicco and Lenny were taken by their owner to the Golesti killing facility—a nightmare beyond imagination. A animal welfare activist rescued Chicco and Lenny from the hell of Golesti. Today, Chicco lives in a private shelter, part of a small pack. Chicco proves to be friendly, curious, and well-suited to social interactions. A warm, cozy bed would now be pure bliss for him! The assessments of these dogs reflect their current, familiar living environment—meaning they’re evaluated in their usual surroundings, with familiar caregivers and within their existing pack. We can’t predict—or only partially predict—how a dog will behave in the future, especially after moving to a new home. Each animal is an individual; it will change and continue to develop over time. For inquiries, information, and much more, please simply send an email to: Our dogs travel vaccinated, microchipped, dewormed, and accompanied by an EU pet passport. From the age of 8 months onward, a rapid test for the four most regionally significant parasitic diseases is performed. As a rule, the dogs are neutered starting at the age of 10 months.

Größe: mittel ca 45-50 cm SH Aufenthaltsort: Rumänien Chicco, einst ein Besitzerhund. Doch Chicco und Lenny wurden vom Besitzer in die Tötung von Golesti gebracht, mehr als ein Albtraum. Eine Tierschützerin holte Chicco und Lenny aus der Hölle Golesti. Nun lebt Chicco in einem privaten Shelter, in einem kleinen Rudel. Chicco zeigt sich als freundlich, neugierig und sozialverträglich. Ein warmes Körbchen wäre jetzt das totale Glück! Die Einschätzungen der Hunde beziehen sich auf den aktuellen, gewohnten Aufenthaltsort, also im gewohnten Umfeld mit bekannten Betreuern, im vorhandenem Rudel. Wie ein Hund sich in der Zukunft, vor allem nach einem Umzug in ein neues Zuhause zeigen wird, können wir nicht bzw nur bedingt voraussagen. Jedes Tier ist ein Individuum, wird sich verändern und weiterentwickeln. Anfragen, Informationen und noch viel mehr, bitte einfach eine Mail an: Unsere Hunde reisen: geimpft, gechipt, entwurmt und mit EU-Pass aus. Ab dem Alter von 8 Monaten wird ein Schnelltest auf die 4 regional wichtigsten Parasitosen durchgeführt, kastriert sind die Hunde i.d.R ab dem Alter von 10 Monaten

About Chicco

What life with Chicco looks like

Chicco is a small puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Wir retten Hunde e.V. in München.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇩🇪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. Wir retten Hunde 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 — Wir retten Hunde 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 Wir retten Hunde 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.
