Adopt Cleo

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 2 years

General Name: Cleo Gender: female dog neutered: Yes Born around: 2024 Size around: 30 cm Residence: Shelter in Sighetu since May 2026 Sponsoring: no Reserved: no Character Cleo seems to be an open, curious female dog. She shows trust towards her caregivers and enjoys both quiet cuddle moments and small play sessions. She explores and observes her surroundings with great interest and attention. It appears that she balances the need for activity and relaxation very well within herself. She gets along well with fellow animals in the public animal shelter. A compatibility with others with cats can be tested. Background Cleo came to the shelter with her brother Carlos. We do not know much about her past. She likely came from the street or was abandoned there. Notes The parent animals are not known, so no information can be given about the included breeds.

Allgemein Name: Cleo Geschlecht: Hündin Kastriert: Ja Geboren ca. : 2024 Größe ca. : 30 cm Aufenthaltsort: Shelter in Sighetu seit Mai 2026 Paten: nein reserviert: nein Charakter Cleo scheint eine aufgeschlossene, neugierige Hündin zu sein. Sie zeigt sich ihren Pflegerinnen gegenüber zutraulich und genießt sowohl die ruhigen Kuschelmomente, als auch kleine Spieleinheiten. Sie erkundet und beobachtet ihre Umgebung gerne und aufmerksam. Es scheint so, als würde sie die Bedürfnisse nach Aktivität und Entspannung sehr ausgeglichen in sich vereinen. Mit Artgenossen im öffentlichen Tierheim verträgt sie sich gut. Eine Verträglichkeit mit Katzen kann getestet werden. Vergangenheit Cleo kam mit ihrem Bruder Carlos ins Shelter. Über die Vergangenheit ist uns nichts bekannt. Vermutlich kommt er von der Straße oder wurde dort ausgesetzt. Hinweise Die Elterntiere sind nicht bekannt, sodass zu den enthaltenen Rassen keine Auskunft gegeben werden kann.

About Cleo

What life with Cleo looks like

Cleo is a small young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Freundeskreis Notfellchen e.V. in Dorsten.

An young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. 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 Cleo, answered.

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