About Elmo

Podengo-DSH mix, male, kastriertca. 12 years, 60 cm Elmo was released in August 2025 because his owner is very ill. Elmo shows himself in the shelter as a wonderful, totally dear dog. He's used to housing. Elmo is topfit, lively and an enthusiastic walker Elmo was given several weeks and was returned at the end of December because he showed territorial behavior in the apartment and also increased it. He also started chasing the cat with which he was well aware. He seems to tend to jealousy, he knew only life with his old owner. Now we are looking for a single place for him, other animals should not be in his home. In addition, dog experience is a prerequisite due to its territorial drive. Since he is otherwise a great dog, we hope that he will find a nice warm home and not have to survive the winter with his short fur in the shelter. Elmo in March 2026: Elmo on his arrival:

Podengo-DSH-Mix, männlich, kastriertca. 12 Jahre, 60 cm Elmo wurde im August 2025 abgegeben, weil sein Besitzer sehr krank ist. Elmo zeigt sich im Tierheim als ein wunderbarer, total lieber Hund. Er ist Wohnungshaltung gewohnt. Elmo ist topfit, lebhaft und ein begeisterter Spaziergänger Elmo war einige Wochen vermittelt und wurde Ende Dezember wieder zurückgegeben, weil er in der Wohnung Territorialverhalten zeigte und dieses auch steigerte. Er fing auch an, die Katze zu jagen, mit der er vorher gut klar kam. Er scheint zur Eifersucht zu neigen, kannte vorher auch nur das Leben mit seinem alten Besitzer. Nun suchen wir einen Einzelplatz für ihn, andere Tiere sollten nicht in seinem Zuhause sein. Außerdem ist Hundeerfahrung aufgrund seines Territorialtriebes Voraussetzung. Da er ansonsten ein toller Hund ist, hoffen wir, dass er doch wieder ein schönes warmes Zuhause findet und nicht mit seinem kurzen Fell im Tierheim den Winter überstehen muss.
