Draghino

Mixed Breed · Male

A charming Italian Greyhound named Draghino is available for adoption. He is originally from Sardinia and has been living at the shelter since 2019. Unfortunately, his previous owners returned him as he did not fit in well with their family. According to them, he finds the environment too chaotic and becomes stressed. During his time at the shelter, he has not learned to view visitors as normal and instead hides, pants, and barks at them from a distance. The shelter receives frequent visitors and Draghino is always stressed. He has also not yet learned to run freely alongside a horse. However, there are some positive aspects to Draghino's personality. He is a loving and affectionate dog who wants to please his owners. He walks well on a leash, is not a barker, knows basic commands, can be left alone, is house trained, and is very intelligent. We are looking for a family or individual who can provide a stable and loving home for Draghino, where he can feel safe and never be left alone again. Experience with dogs and a garden are required for adoption. A companion dog is also welcome in the home. If you have any questions about Draghino, please do not hesitate to contact us. Draghino is microchipped, vaccinated, and traveled with an EU passport in a transport registered with the German veterinary office. He has not been neutered.

DE·Show original

Ursprünglich kommt er aus Sardinien. Leider gibt sie den Hund wieder zurück, da er nicht so gut in die Familie passt. Laut Aussage der Besitzer ist es ihm zu trubelig und darum ist er gestresst. Er hat in der gesamten Zeit nicht gelernt, Besucher „als normal“ anzusehen, sondern er versteckt sich, hechelt und bellt den Besuch auch aus der Ferne an. Es ist oft Besuch da und Draghino ist immer gestresst. Auch hat er es in der Zeit noch nicht geschafft, frei neben dem Pferd zu laufen. Doch nun einmal die guten Seiten: Draghino ist ein verschmuster Kerl, der seinen Menschen gefallen will. Er geht gut an der Leine, ist kein Leinenpöbler, kennt die gängigen Kommandos, kann alleine bleiben, ist stubenrein und sehr gelehrig. Wir suchen für diesen attraktiven Rüden eine Familie oder Einzelperson, wo Draghino ankommen kann, die Zeit bekommt, die er braucht, er sicher geführt wird und nie mehr im Stich gelassen wird. Voraussetzung für die Übernahme ist Hundeerfahrung und ein Garten. Gerne kann ein Hundekumpel im Zuhause leben. Haben Sie Fragen zu Draghino? Dann nehmen Sie gerne Kontakt auf. Draghino ist gechipt, geimpft und reiste mit einem EU Ausweis in einem beim deutschen Veterinäramt registrierten Transport. Er wurde nicht kastriert.

About Draghino

What life with Draghino looks like

Draghino 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 Draghino, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Draghino?: 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 Draghino on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Draghino 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 Draghino 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 Draghino 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 Draghino 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.
