Cobo

Male · Senior · 10 years

Here are the latest pictures and videos: December 2020, and now again lost. Despite all efforts, the male dogs in the house never got along in the long term, and Cobo, who came last, must go again. :-(( On September 7, 2020, after such a long time, Cobo found a home. April 2019, unfortunately, Cobo still hadn't found a home. Locked up for over 2 years............ In September 2017, Cobo is still waiting. People with experience who can clearly show him how to get through life would be good friends for him. It's hard to say about other dogs; during an outing he had initiated, where he had climbed over a fence (about 2m high), he wasn't so friendly to the other dog. But the other dog didn't react to this, and nothing happened. But certainly, he needs a person to work with him and make the decisions, not leaving it to Cobo. This is as said. May 3, 2017, Cobo is a very strong boy. The long time locked up makes him nervous, and he constantly tries to throw himself at me (almost knocking me over), he is very physical and needs urgent mental stimulation and exercise. Dog-experienced people are needed here who know how to handle such a powerhouse. We report again. December 16, 2016, Cobo is a very dear boy. He has no problems with other dogs. He runs nicely on a leash, is obedient even if another dog harasses him, and listens well to his person. He loves being with people and therefore is the perfect climber to get out of the runs to be with his beloved two-legged friends. We hope the nice boy will find his happiness soon and report again.

Weitere Fotos und Videos von Cobo. Dezember 2020 und nun wieder verloren. Trotz aller Bemühungen kamen die Rüden im Haus auf Dauer nicht miteinander zurecht und Cobo, der als letztes kam muss wieder gehen. :-(( 07.09.2020 nach so langer Zeit hat Cobo sein Zuhause gefunden. April 2019 leider hatte Cobo noch kein Glück seinen Menschen zu finden. Über 2 Jahre eingesperrt............ September 2017 Cobo wartet auch noch. Menschen, die Erfahrung haben und ihm klar zeigen wie man gut durchs Leben kommt, die bekommen einen guten Freund. Mit anderen Hunden ist es schwer zu sagen, bei einem Ausflug den er gestartet hatte, da er von einem Auslauf in den anderen geklettert war ( über ca 2m Zaun) war er nicht so freundlich zu dem anderen Hund. Dieser ging aber darauf nicht ein und daher passierte auch nichts. Aber sicher muss sein Mensch mit ihm arbeiten bzw die Entscheidungen übernehmen und sie nicht Cobo überlassen. Dieser lässt dies wie gesagt zu. 03.05.2017 Cobo ist ein sehr kräftiger Junge. Das lange eingesperrt sein macht ihn nervös und er versucht immer wieder sich an mich zu schmeissen (mich dabei fast umzuwerfen) er ist sehr körperlich und braucht dringend Beschäftigung und Auslauf. Hier sind hundeerfahrene Menschen gefragt, die wissen mit einem solchen Kraftpaket umzugehen. Wir berichten wieder. 16.12.2016 Cobo ist ein sehr lieber Junge. Er hat keine Probleme mit anderen Hunden. Läuft schön an der Leine ist folgsam selbst wenn ein anderer Hund ihn belsätigt, lässt er sich sehr gut händeln und hört auf seinen Menschen. Er liebt es mit Meschen zusammen zu sein und daher ist er der reinste Kletterkünstler um aus den Ausläufen heraus zu genau diesen geliebten Zweibeinern zu kommen. Wir hoffen der nette Junge findet schnell sein Glück und berichten wieder.

About Cobo

What life with Cobo looks like

Cobo is a senior dog waiting at Tierhilfe Arme Pfoten in Arme Pfoten.

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 Switzerland

Swiss shelters require a home visit (Platzkontrolle) and proof of suitable accommodation. Cantons each have their own additional dog-keeping requirements (e.g. SKN training in some areas). Animals leave sterilized and chipped.

Frequently asked

Adopting Cobo, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Cobo?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierhilfe Arme Pfoten handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Cobo on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Cobo if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierhilfe Arme Pfoten 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Cobo 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 Cobo 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 Arme Pfoten early rather than rehoming privately; they know Cobo 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.
