Diego

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

We are currently looking for a new home for our approximately 5-year-old degu, Diego. He has lived his entire life with his brother, but this brother recently passed away, leaving Diego alone. We would like to give Diego the opportunity to continue living with a degu or multiple degus. Therefore, we would be very happy if someone were willing to take him in so that he does not spend the rest of his life alone. Diego will only be rehomed with a small protective fee.

Wir suchen aktuell nach einem neuen Zuhause für unseren ca. 5 Jahre alten Degu Diego. Er hat sein ganzes Leben mit seinem Bruder zusammen gelebt, allerdings ist dieser kürzlich verstorben und nun ist er alleine. Wir würden Diego gerne die Möglichkeit geben weiterhin mit einem Degu oder mehreren Degus zusammenzuleben.Deshalb würden wir uns freuen, wenn jemand bereit wäre ihn bei sich aufzunehmen, damit er nicht sein restliches Leben vereinsamt. Diego wird nur mit einer kleinen Schutzgebür vermittelt.

About Diego

What life with Diego looks like

Diego is a adult mixed breed animal waiting at Deguhilfe Süd e.V. in Obermichelbach.

Every animal has their own temperament and history. The shelter knows Diego far better than any listing can convey — ask about daily routine, ideal household, and what kind of adopter they're hoping for.

🇩🇪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 Diego, answered.

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