How do I contact the shelter about Dario?

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

Can I adopt Dario if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Hope for Future 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 Dario 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 Dario 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 Hope for Future e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Dario and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.

Dario

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

Dario, born approximately July 2021, neutered, approximately 50 cm shoulder height, in the shelter since September 2021. Dario was rescued in the fall of 2021 along with his mother Dania and his five siblings from one of the public animal shelters. They were just newly born. Dario is the last from the litter, who unfortunately still lives in Maria's shelter. All his siblings have already found their families for a long time. Dario has developed into a reserved dog because unfortunately he lacked intense human contact. In the shelter he is permanently stressed and always again in conflict with other dogs, although he is actually compatible. We wish him a home with sensitive and experienced people who show him in peace and without time pressure or expectations what a good dog life is. It should be okay if he never wants to go for a walk like a normal dog or cuddle. Maybe he is then good for one or the other positive surprise. At least a confident first dog, as well as a securely fenced garden with direct access to the house are basic requirements. Since Dario has only poor chances of placement, we would be very happy if someone takes a sponsorship for him. Is currently in Romania and may leave if he has found a home. Travels chipped and vaccinated (EU vaccination passport; vaccinations: rabies and basic immunization). All dogs are treated against intestinal parasites and ectoparasites at their arrival in the shelter and subsequently at least once a year. The described behavioral observations are based on everyday life in the shelter and may be different in a domestic environment under changed living conditions. The transport (registered with Traces) will be organized and carried out by us, as far as legally possible for the country of destination. Please note the information on this page:

05/2024 Futterpatenschaft: - Tierarztpatenschaft: - Dario, geboren ca. 07/2021, kastriert, ca. 50 cm Schulterhöhe, im Shelter seit 09/2021 Dario wurde im Herbst 2021 zusammen mit seiner Mama Dania und seinen fünf Geschwistern aus einem der öffentlichen Tierheime gerettet. Sie waren gerade frisch geboren. Dario ist der letzte aus dem Wurf, der leider immer noch bei Maria im Shelter lebt. Alle seine Geschwister haben schon lange ihre Familie gefunden. Dario hat sich zu einem zurückhaltenden Hund entwickelt, denn leider fehlte ihm der intensive Menschenkontakt. Im Shelter ist er permanent gestresst und immer wieder mit anderen Hunden im Streit, obwohl er eigentlich verträglich ist. Wir wünschen uns für ihn ein Zuhause bei einfühlsamen und erfahrenen Menschen, die ihm in Ruhe und ohne Zeitdruck oder Erwartungshaltung zeigen, was ein gutes Hundeleben ist. Es sollte okay sein, wenn er nie wie ein normaler Hund Gassi gehen oder kuscheln will. Vielleicht ist er dann für die eine oder andere positive Überraschung gut. Mindestens ein souveräner Ersthund, sowie ein sicher eingezäunter Garten mit direktem Zugang zum Haus sind Grundvoraussetzungen. Da Dario nur schlechte Vermittlungschancen hat, würden wir uns sehr freuen, wenn jemand eine Patenschaft für ihn übernimmt. Befindet sich aktuell in Rumänien und darf ausreisen, wenn er ein Zuhause gefunden hat. Reist gechipt und geimpft (EU Impfpass; Impfungen: Tollwut und Grundimmunisierung). Alle Hunde werden bei ihrer Ankunft im Shelter sowie anschließend mindestens einmal jährlich gegen Darmparasiten und Ektoparasiten behandelt. Die geschilderten Verhaltensbeobachtungen basieren auf dem Alltag im Shelter und können sich in einem häuslichen Umfeld unter veränderten Lebensbedingungen entsprechend anders darstellen. Der Transport (angemeldet mit Traces) wird von uns, so weit es für das Bestimmungsland rechtlich möglich ist, organisiert und durchgeführt. Bitte beachten Sie die Informationen auf dieser Seite:

About Dario

What life with Dario looks like

Dario is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Hope for Future e.V. in Germany.

An 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.
