Figaro

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Young · 1 year

Figaro is a stunningly handsome male dog currently residing at our partner animal shelter, Hogar de Asis, where he’s eagerly awaiting a wonderful home with people who’ll share many exciting adventures with him. We affectionately call him Porsche, because just like a Porsche, he darts around the spacious outdoor run with incredible speed and elegance whenever he gets the chance after spending many hours in his kennel. A Porsche on the racetrack would probably seem clumsy in comparison to our Figaro 😉 Originally, he was rescued from a pound by our animal welfare partner Tere and has been under her care since March 2025. At first, he arrived very thin and stressed, but today he has adapted perfectly to life at the shelter and is doing wonderfully both physically and emotionally. Porschelino knows all the routines of the shelter and has integrated seamlessly into the large pack of dogs. In the mornings, while the kennels are being cleaned, all the dogs are allowed out together into the big outdoor run. Here, he gets along great with every other dog; he’s independent and content with himself. As soon as the kennel doors open, he bursts forth with pure joy and races through the run with boundless enthusiasm. He loves to move around and curiously observes everything going on around him—whether it’s a chicken strolling by, the colony of cats across the way, or riders passing by; Figaro is always intrigued. © 2006-2026 by Tierschutzverein Europa e.V. - All rights reserved

DE·Show original

Figaro ist ein bildhübscher Rüde der sich in unserem Partnertierheim Hogar de Asis befindet und von hier aus auf ein tolles Zuhause wartet bei Menschen mit denen er gemeinsam viel erleben darf. Figaro wird von uns liebevoll Porsche genannt, denn genauso sportlich und elegant flitzt er über den großen Auslauf wenn er nach vielen Stunden im Zwinger die Gelegenheit dazu hat. Ein Porsche auf der Rennbahn würde wahrscheinlich noch plump aussehen im Vergleich zu unserem Figaro 😉 Ursprünglich wurde er von unserer Tierschutzpartnerin Tere aus einer Perrera befreit und befindet sich seit März 2025 in ihrer Obhut. Er kam damals sehr dünn und gestresst an, doch hat sich heute perfekt dem Tierheimalltag angepasst und es geht ihm körperlich und seelisch gut. Porschelino kennt die Tierheimabläufe und ist bestens ins große Hunderudel integriert.Vormittags während dem Saubermachen der Zwinger dürfen alle Hunde gemeinsam nach draußen in den großen Auslauf. Hier versteht er sich mit allen anderen Hunden, ist unabhängig und genügt sich selbst.Sobald die Zwingertüren aufgehen präsentiert er uns seine gesamte Lebensfreude und flitzt mit Begeisterung durch den Auslauf. Er bewegt sich gerne und beobachtet neugierig alles was vor sich geht. Sei es ein vorbeilaufendes Huhn, die Katzenkolonie gegenüber oder Reiter die vorbeireiten, Figaro ist interessiert. © 2006-2026 by Tierschutzverein Europa e.V. - All rights reserved

About Figaro

What life with Figaro looks like

Figaro is a small young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein Europa in München.

A young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇩🇪Adopting from Germany

German rescues typically require an in-person home visit (Vorkontrolle) or detailed video home check before approving adoption. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Figaro, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Figaro?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutzverein Europa handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Figaro on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Figaro if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutzverein Europa 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Figaro 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 Figaro 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 Tierschutzverein Europa early rather than rehoming privately; they know Figaro 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.
