Ciro

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 3 years

The dog is named Ciro (pronounced Tschiro), a male dog, will be three years old in June and originally lived on the streets in Italy. He loves playing with the ball and could play all day, and he also enjoys running on fields and is very cuddly. He is afraid of large dogs and has a mild leash aggression, and he is not suitable for multi-family homes as he barks and alerts when someone walks by the door. He knows the basics like: sit, stay, down, give paws, recall while free-running, and fetching toys. He is vaccinated and not neutered. Contact information: Email: __EMAIL__ Phone: __PHONE__ We are happy if someone could provide a better home for Ciro. This animal can be anxious in unfamiliar situations.

About Ciro

What life with Ciro looks like

Ciro is a large young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Melle in Melle.

An young 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Ciro, answered.

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