Dedalo

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

Among the new arrivals we met at Canile Arzachena in April 2025, this young male dog was one of them. He was found homeless, wandering around the outskirts of Arzachena. Dedalo, as he was named, showed himself to be somewhat shy and cautious towards us. But that didn’t surprise us. For one, he had just arrived at the shelter not long ago, and for another, his experiences with people were likely far from positive: someone had not only cut off his ears but also his tail. What kind of monsters do such things to defenseless animals? We can never comprehend the cruelty with which many animals— not just on Sardinia—are tormented. We now wish for Dedalo that he will soon have the chance to leave the Canile and travel to Germany, where he will find a permanent home with loving people who will take the time to help him adjust and forget his miserable past. Would you like to take Dedalo into your family and help him lead a happy and relaxed dog life?

Zu den Neuzugängen, die wir im April 2025 im Canile Arzachena kennenlernten, gehörte dieser junge Rüde. Er war herrenlos aufgegriffen worden, als er am Rand von Arzachena herumirrte. Dedalo, wie er genannt wurde, zeigte sich uns gegenüber noch etwas schüchtern und vorsichtig. Aber das wunderte uns nicht. Zum einen war gerade erst kurz zuvor im Canile gelandet, zum anderen waren seine Erfahrungen mit Menschen sicherlich eher negativ: Man hatte dem armen Kerl sowohl die Ohren als auch die Rute abgeschnitten ... Was sind das für Bastarde, die einem wehrlosen Tier so etwas antun? Wir werden diese Grausamkeit, mit der viele Tiere - nicht nur auf Sardinien - gequält werden, niemals nachvollziehen können. Wir wünschen uns nun für Dedalo, dass er bald die Chance bekommt, das Canile wieder verlassen und nach Deutschland reisen zu können. Hier soll er dann sein Zuhause für immer finden bei lieben Menschen, die im mit viel Geduld und Liebe die Zeit lassen, die er braucht, um Vertragen zu fassen und sein elendes früheres Leben vergessen zu können. Möchten Sie Dedalo in Ihre Familie aufnehmen und ihm helfen, ein glückliches und entspanntes Hundeleben führen zu können.

About Dedalo

What life with Dedalo looks like

Dedalo is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at ProTier e.V. in Germany.

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 Dedalo, answered.

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