Ercole

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 9 years

Ercole kam schon als Welpe im Canile an und wartet dort nun schon viele Jahre auf seine Familie. Für ihn ist es besonders schlimm, denn er gehört zu den Hunden, der den Menschen liebt und braucht. Ercole ist lieb, freundlich und sehr anhänglich und er kann nicht genug bekommen von Streicheleinheiten, sucht Nähe und er ist einer der Hunden, die mit ihren Bezugspersonen durch Dick und Dünn gehen werden. Ercole versteht sich mit Artgenossen, nur mit dominanten Rüden kommt er nicht gut zurecht. Nun tickt also langsam auch seine Uhr und wir wünschen uns so sehr, dass Ercole nicht noch mehr Lebenszeit hinter Gittern verbringen muss. Bei Fragen zu unseren Schützlingen, oder aber wenn Sie ERCOLE einen Platz als Familienmitglied auf einer Pflegestelle oder Endstelle anbieten möchten, dann melden Sie sich bitte bei: . Sie erhalten dann per Mail im ersten Schritt unsere allgemeinen Infos zum Vermittlungsablauf bzw. zur Pflegestellentätigkeit und unser Formular zur Selbstauskunft.

About Ercole

What life with Ercole looks like

Ercole is a large senior mixed breed dog waiting at SardinienHunde e.V. in Germany.

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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Ercole, answered.

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