How do I contact the shelter about Duque?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Ein Freund fürs Leben e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Duque on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Duque if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Ein Freund fürs Leben 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 Duque 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 Duque 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 Ein Freund fürs Leben e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Duque and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.

Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?

Duque

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 9 years

A male Yorkshire Terrier, approximately 3 years old, was born in Spain around January 1st, 2017. He stands about 30 cm tall at the shoulder and weighs approximately 3.5 kg. Sometimes a dog's life circumstances change suddenly - and he can't understand why. Duque is a small male who lost his home because his family adopted a Poodle puppy and they didn't get along. As a result, the family decided to give him up. To give him another chance, our animal welfare organization took him in. Since then, he has shown daily what a friendly and loving companion he is. He currently lives harmoniously with other dogs, enjoys playing, long walks, and relaxing car rides. Duque is a very attached and cuddly dog with a gentle nature. He seeks the company of his humans, enjoys attention and spends time in familiar surroundings. With his calm, friendly nature, he quickly wins the trust and hearts of those around him. Now Duque is looking for a responsible and permanent home with people who will give him security, comfort and reliable affection and accept him as a family member. If you would like to give Duque a loving home, we look forward to your message. Duque is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and tested for Mediterranean diseases. He is in a rescue center in Spain. The adoption fee for Duque is 480 euros.

♂, geb. ca. 2017menschenbezogen - lieb - sozialin Spanien Duque wurde ca. 01.2017 geboren und ist ein reinrassiger Yorkshire-Terrier, hat eine Schulterhöhe von etwa 30 cm, eine Länge von ca. 32 cm und wiegt ca. 3,5 kg. Manchmal ändern sich die Lebensumstände eines Hundes von einem Moment auf den anderen – und er kann nicht verstehen, weshalb. Duque ist ein kleiner Rüde, der sein Zuhause verloren hat, weil seine Familie einen Pudelwelpen aufgenommen hatte und das Zusammenleben der beiden nicht harmonierte. In der Folge entschied sich die Familie, Duque abzugeben. Um ihm eine zweite Chance zu ermöglichen, hat ihn unsere Tierschützerin bei sich aufgenommen. Seitdem zeigt er täglich, was für ein freundlicher und liebenswerter Begleiter er ist. Er lebt derzeit problemlos mit anderen Hunden zusammen, spielt gerne, genießt ausgedehnte Spaziergänge und fährt auch im Auto entspannt mit. Duque ist ein sehr anhänglicher und verschmuster Hund mit einem sanften Wesen. Er sucht die Nähe zu seinen Menschen, freut sich über Zuwendung und verbringt gerne Zeit in vertrauter Gesellschaft. Mit seiner ruhigen, freundlichen Art gewinnt er schnell das Vertrauen und die Herzen seiner Bezugspersonen. Nun sucht Duque ein verantwortungsbewusstes und dauerhaftes Zuhause bei Menschen, die ihm Sicherheit, Geborgenheit und verlässliche Zuwendung schenken und ihn als Familienmitglied annehmen. Wenn Sie Duque ein liebevolles Zuhause geben möchten, freuen wir uns über Ihre Nachricht. Duque wird kastriert, geimpft, gechipt und auf Mittelmeerkrankheiten getestet vermittelt. Er befindet sich in einer Auffangstation in Spanien. Die Schutzgebühr für Duque beträgt 480 Euro. Sie möchten Duque ein Zuhause geben?

About Duque

What life with Duque looks like

Duque is a small senior mixed breed dog waiting at Ein Freund fürs Leben e.V. in Berlin.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇩🇪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.
