Elio

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 4 months

Elio was found abandoned on the streets of Romania with his siblings (Jaro, Nilo, Elva, Sian, Taro, and Yuna). Fortunately, they were brought to safety in time and are now living in a makeshift shelter run by our animal welfare team. While they are safe, this place is no substitute for a loving home. The little male dog was born in early May 2026 and can travel to his own home in early September. Elio is typically curious, playful, and clumsy. He discovers something new every day and enjoys playing with his siblings. As an adult, Elio is expected to be medium-sized. Since his parents are unknown, his final size cannot be predicted with certainty. Like any puppy, Elio is still learning about life in a home. Housebreaking, walking on a leash, everyday noises, or the dog alphabet - he needs to learn all of this in peace and with a lot of patience. Whoever gives Elio this chance will gain a loyal companion for life. Please note: The shelter's feedback reflects the current behavior of the dogs here.

Beschreibung Unsere Tierschützer berichten: Elio wurde zusammen mit seinen Geschwistern (Jaro, Nilo, Elva, Sian, Taro und Yuna) verlassen auf den Straßen Rumäniens gefunden. Zum Glück konnten sie rechtzeitig in Sicherheit gebracht werden und leben nun auf einer notdürftig eingerichteten Pflegestelle unserer Tierschützerin. Dort sind sie zwar in Sicherheit, dennoch ersetzt dieser Ort natürlich kein liebevolles Zuhause. Der kleine Rüde ist ca. Anfang Mai 2026 geboren und kann ab Anfang September in sein eigenes Zuhause reisen. Elio ist welpentypisch neugierig, verspielt und tapsig. Er entdeckt jeden Tag etwas Neues und genießt das gemeinsame Spielen mit seinen Geschwistern. Ausgewachsen wird Elio vermutlich mittelgroß werden. Da seine Eltern nicht bekannt sind, lässt sich seine endgültige Größe jedoch nicht mit Sicherheit vorhersagen. Wie jeder Welpe kennt Elio das Leben in einem Zuhause noch nicht. Stubenreinheit, Leine laufen, Alltagsgeräusche oder das Hunde-ABC – all das muss er erst noch in Ruhe und mit viel Geduld lernen. Wer Elio diese Chance gibt, gewinnt einen treuen Begleiter fürs Leben. Bitte beachten Sie:Die Rückmeldungen der Tierheime spiegeln das aktuelle Verhalten der hier zur

About Elio

What life with Elio looks like

Elio is a puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Tierischgeholfen 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. 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 Elio, answered.

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