How do I contact the shelter about Chico?

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

Can I adopt Chico if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierhilfe Korfu 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 Chico 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 Chico 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 Tierhilfe Korfu e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Chico 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.

Chico

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 10 years

I-No.: r-de-chico-m-0726 Location: Oberhausen (North Rhine-Westphalia) July 2026: We are providing placement assistance for Zuma and Chico, as unfortunately they find themselves in need of a new home through no fault of their own. The two male dogs are just over 10 years old and neutered. They are family dogs who love children and can also be left alone for short periods. They respond well to commands and are easily trainable. Traveling by car is also no problem for these two. Chico is quite playful and stands about 56 cm tall. Of course, it would be ideal if the two could stay together—but this wish will likely reduce their chances to virtually zero :( All dogs are first vaccinated, microchipped, and have an EU pet passport. 20260716 07 Chico 2026 20260716 06 Chico 2026 20260716 05 Chico 2026 20260716 04 Chico 2026

I-Nr.: r-de-chico-m-0726 Ort: Oberhausen (NRW) Juli 2026: Für Zuma und Chico leisten wir Vermittlungshilfe, da sie unverschuldet leider ein neues Zuhause suchen. Die beiden Rüden sind etwas über 10 Jahre alt und kastriert. Sie sind Familienhunde, die kinderlieb sind und auch mal alleine bleiben können. Sie hören gut und sind ableinbar. Auch Autofahren ist mit den 2 kein Problem.Chico ist recht verspielt und etwa 56cm groß.Ein Traum wäre es natürlich, wenn die beiden zusammen bleiben könnten, wobei dieser Wunsch ihre Chancen vermutlich gen 0 reduzieren wird :( Alle Hunde sind erstgeimpft, gechipt und haben einen EU-Heimtierausweis. 20260716 07 Chico 2026 20260716 06 Chico 2026 20260716 05 Chico 2026 20260716 04 Chico 2026

About Chico

What life with Chico looks like

Chico is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at Tierhilfe Korfu e.V. in Ratingen.

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.
