Dio

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 7 months

Dio, born approximately April 2026, unneutered, fully grown, medium-sized Dio was born around the beginning of April 2026 and will likely grow to be medium-sized. The dear male is a rather calm puppy who initially observes new situations cautiously. Dio is initially somewhat shy around strangers and needs a moment to gain trust. Once he realizes he is safe, he shows his incredibly loving and gentle side. Of course, playing is also important: Together with the other dogs, Dio curiously explores his surroundings and enjoys playful hours. However, he is somewhat more reserved and not as extroverted as some of the other puppies. We wish for Dio a home with patient people who give him time to settle in quietly and show him the world with love and understanding. With an empathetic family, he will develop into a loyal companion who will win many hearts with his gentle nature. Who will give this enchanting boy the chance at a happy dog life? Dio has a shortened tail. This does not cause any health problems. This does not allow him to enter Switzerland. Currently in Romania and allowed to leave if a home is found. Travels chipped and vaccinated (EU vaccination passport; vaccinations: rabies and basic immunization). All dogs are treated against intestinal parasites and ectoparasites upon arrival at the shelter and at least once a year thereafter. 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 destination country. Please note the information on this page.

07/2026 Dio, geboren ca. 04/2026, unkastriert, ausgewachsen, mittel-groß werdend Dio wurde etwa Anfang April 2026 geboren und wird ausgewachsen voraussichtlich mittelgroß werden. Der liebe Rüde ist ein eher ruhiger Welpe, der neue Situationen zunächst vorsichtig beobachtet. Fremden Menschen begegnet Dio anfangs noch etwas schüchtern und braucht einen kleinen Moment, um Vertrauen zu fassen. Hat er erst einmal gemerkt, dass ihm nichts passiert, zeigt er seine unglaublich liebe und sanfte Seite. Natürlich darf auch das Spielen nicht fehlen: Gemeinsam mit den anderen Hunden erkundet Dio neugierig seine Umgebung und genießt ausgelassene Tobestunden. Dabei ist er jedoch etwas zurückhaltender und nicht ganz so extrovertiert wie einige der anderen Welpen. Für Dio wünschen wir uns ein Zuhause bei geduldigen Menschen, die ihm die Zeit geben, in Ruhe anzukommen und ihm mit Liebe und Verständnis die Welt zeigen. Mit einer einfühlsamen Familie wird er sich zu einem treuen Begleiter entwickeln, der mit seinem sanften Wesen viele Herzen erobern wird. Wer schenkt diesem bezaubernden Jungen die Chance auf ein glückliches Hundeleben? Dio hat eine verkürzte Rute. Diese bereitet keinerlei gesundheitliche Beschwerden. Eine Einreise in die Schweiz ist dadurch nicht möglich. 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 Dio

What life with Dio looks like

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

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇩🇪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 Dio, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Dio?
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 Dio on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Dio 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Dio 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 Dio 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 Dio 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.
