Davide

Mixed Breed · Male

Davide - a dream for friends of large dogs. He brings everything you could wish for in a companion animal. He sat in a small box with a puppy girl. Despite being confined, he was very gentle and affectionate towards us. Despite the cramped space, he enjoyed the attention. We couldn't offer much - no walks, no playing - but he was very grateful, snuggling up to us and simply soaking up the brief time of security. Since October, he has been with an anxious female dog. But he doesn't let her fear affect him, instead using his good mood, social and uncomplicated nature to show her how beautiful life can be - and that on 15 square meters. Davide is simply a treasure. He wants to learn, take nice walks and be with his people. With him, you get a friend and companion for life. You should have dog experience and a garden. We suspect he is a Retriever-Maremmano mix. Children should be 10 years and older, a social first dog can live in the family. Do you have questions about Davide? Then please get in touch. All dogs are of course chipped, dewormed and fully vaccinated. They come with a transport registered with the German Veterinary Office.

Hier kommt Davide – ein Traum für Freunde von großen Hunden. Denn er bringt alles mit, was man sich von einem tierischen Begleiter wünscht. Er saß zusammen mit einem Welpenmädchen in einer kleinen Box. Obwohl eingesperrt, zeigte er sich uns gegenüber sehr sanft und verschmust. Trotz der Enge spürte man, wie sehr er die Aufmerksamkeit genoß. Wir konnten ihm nicht viel bieten – keine Spaziergänge, kein Spielen und trotzdem war er sehr dankbar, drückte sich an uns und saugte einfach die kurze Zeit der Geborgenheit auf. Seit Oktober sitzt er mit einer ängstlichen Hündin zusammen. Aber er lässt sich von ihrer Angst nicht anstecken, im Gegenteil: mit seiner guten Laune, seinem sozialen und unkomplizierten Wesen versucht er ihr zu zeigen, wie schön das Leben ist – und das auf 15 qm. Davide ist einfach nur ein Schatz. Er will lernen, schöne Spaziergänge machen und bei seinen Menschen sein. Mit ihm bekommt man einen Freund und Begleiter fürs Leben. Sie sollten über Hundeerfahrung und einen Garten verfügen. Wir vermuten, dass er ein Retriever-Maremmno-Mischling ist. Kinder sollten 10 Jahre und älter sein, gerne kann ein sozialer Ersthund in der Familie leben. Haben Sie Fragen zu Davide? Dann nehmen Sie gerne Kontakt auf. Alle Hunde sind selbstverständlich gechipt, entwurmt und komplett geimpft. Sie kommen mit einem beim deutschen Veterinäramt registrierten Transport nach Deutschland.

About Davide

What life with Davide looks like

Davide is an extra-large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein Furbys FellFreunde in Bornheim.

An 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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Davide, answered.

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