Pug · Male · Young · 2 years

Gismo – ein kleiner Kämpfer Gismo kam am 29.09.2026 gemeinsam mit zwei weiteren Möpsen aus sehr schlechter Haltung zu uns. Er zeigt sich lieb und aufgeschlossen. Leider hat Gismo einen Hornhautdefekt, der am 16.10.2026 operiert werden soll. Ob er sein Auge behalten kann, wird sich noch zeigen. Jetzt drücken wir dem kleinen Kämpfer ganz fest die Daumen, dass die Operation gut verläuft und er bald unbeschwert in eine bessere Zukunft starten kann. ❤️🐾

About Gismo

What life with Gismo looks like

Gismo is a small young adult pug dog waiting at Tierheim Cottbus in Cottbus.

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 Gismo, answered.

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