How do I contact the shelter about Fido?

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

Can I adopt Fido if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — German Hands meet Korean Paws 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 Fido 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 Fido 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 German Hands meet Korean Paws e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Fido 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.

Fido

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 9 years

Fido is a male Jindo mix dog weighing about 20 kg. He is one of our long-term residents and has spent almost his entire life at the shelter. We don't know much about his past, but one thing is certain: Fido is a sweetheart who loves life, walks, and grass and deserves all the good things in the world! With his bright eyes and cute pink nose, he loves to sniff everything the world has to offer. Here's what one of our volunteer helpers had to say about Fido: "Fido is what you would call an 'independent spirit'! He likes to be petted and gets close to you, but he is much more interested in sniffing and grazing! It was hard to really get to know Fido because he was always so busy exploring, but I could still see that he is naturally gentle. I think Fido was just excited to experience the world outside the shelter for a short time. He accepts people and close relationships without problems, and that speaks very well for the kind of companion he could become." Fido is looking for a loving forever family who can give him a second chance in life and happiness! The Korean animal welfare workers prepare the dogs well for a home. They are house-trained, social, and friendly. The dogs go to foster homes in Korea so they can quickly feel safe and secure in a home. If you are interested in Fido, please download the corresponding self-disclosure and send it back to us completed. Thank you! Fido is looking forward to your inquiry! ♥ More information: the dogs come to Germany with flight sponsors via Traces and the prescribed health documents. They are vaccinated, chipped, and dewormed. The concerns of animal welfare and the statutory requirements are strictly observed. Important information: We will only receive the exact date of birth shortly before the flight, we only know the year of birth.

Fido ist ein männlicher Jindo-Mischlingshund, der etwa 20 kg wiegt. Er ist einer unserer Langzeitbewohner und hat fast sein ganzes Leben im Tierheim verbracht. Über seine Vergangenheit wissen wir nicht viel, aber eines steht fest: Fido ist ein lieber Kerl, der das Leben, Spaziergänge und das Gras liebt und alles Gute in der Welt verdient! Mit seinen strahlenden Augen und der niedlichen rosa Nase schnuppert er gerne an allem, was die Welt zu bieten hat.Hier ist, was einer unserer ehrenamtlichen Helfer über Fido zu sagen hatte:"Fido ist das, was man als 'unabhängigen Geist' bezeichnen würde! Er lässt sich gerne streicheln und kommt einem nahe, aber er ist viel mehr daran interessiert, herumzuschnüffeln und zu grasen! Es war schwer, Fido richtig kennenzulernen, weil er immer so sehr mit dem Erkunden beschäftigt war, aber ich konnte dennoch erkennen, dass er von Natur aus sanftmütig ist. Ich glaube, Fido war einfach aufgeregt, eine kurze Zeit lang die Welt außerhalb des Tierheims zu erleben. Er akzeptiert Menschen und enge Kontakte ohne Probleme, und das spricht sehr für die Art von Begleiter, der er werden könnte."Fido sucht eine liebevolle Familie für immer, die ihm eine zweite Chance im Leben und Glück schenken kann! Die koreanischen Tierschützer bereiten die Hunde gut auf ein Zuhause vor. Sie sind stubenrein, sozial und freundlich. Die Hunde gehen in Korea teilweise auf Pflegestellen, damit sie sich schnell in einem Zuhause wohl und sicher fühlen. Wenn Sie sich für Fido interessieren, laden Sie bitte die entsprechende Selbstauskunft herunter und senden Sie uns diese ausgefüllt zu. Vielen Dank! Fido freut sich auf deine Anfrage! ♥ Weitere Informationen: die Hunde kommen mit Flugpaten via Traces und den vorgeschriebenen Gesundheitsdokumenten nach Deutschland. Sie sind geimpft, gechipt und entwurmt. Es werden die Belangen des Tierschutzes und die gesetzlichen Vorgaben strikt eingehalten. Wichtige Info: Das genaue Geburtsdatum bekommen wir erst kurz vor Flug mitgeteilt, wir wissen nur das Geburtsjahr.

About Fido

What life with Fido looks like
