Adopt Iker

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Senior · 10 years

Iker is a Pitbull-mixed breed (PPP) and can only be rehomed to Austria or Switzerland. 💛 IKER – 10 years of patience and hope 💛 For 10 long years, Iker has patiently waited at our shelter for his luck. 10 years full of hope that somewhere out there, someone would show him what a real home feels like. 🧡 Iker is approximately 10 years old, friendly, calm, and lovable. He loves walks and enjoys every pat. He is open and trusting with people – his eyes light up when he gets attention. 🐶 With other dogs, Iker gets along well – as long as they are not too dominant or “macho.” He does not seek conflict but simply peace and harmony. Iker has adapted, waited, and hoped his whole life. Now his time has come. He no longer needs a big adventure – just a warm spot, loving people, and finally a home where he can belong. 📍 Where is the person who shows Iker that waiting was worth it? If you want to give Iker the long-awaited loving home, please fill out the interested parties form. You can do so HERE: This interested parties form is the basis for a detailed phone call with you, where we are happy to answer all your questions. Your team from Sando e. V. – Rescue A Soul 💐 -30 .gallery-item { border: 2px solid ; -30 .

About Iker

What life with Iker looks like

Iker is a medium-sized senior mixed breed dog waiting at Sando e.V. in Vechelde.

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 Iker, answered.

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