How do I contact the shelter about INDIGO?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutzverein München handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw INDIGO on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt INDIGO if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutzverein München 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 INDIGO 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 INDIGO 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 München early rather than rehoming privately; they know INDIGO 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.

INDIGO

Labrador Retriever · Male · Adult · 5 years

Indigo came to us because his previous owners were overwhelmed with him. The Labrador male was born on 03.09.2020, is 63 cm tall, weighs about 37 kg and is unneutered. We are looking for people with dog experience who can give Indigo security and orientation with calmness, patience and consistent guidance. Indigo is compatible with his own kind and is very friendly, affectionate and playful with people he knows. He is very uncertain with strangers and can react defensively in such situations. Therefore, he needs people who take his uncertainty seriously and give him the necessary time to build trust. A home in a quiet area would be ideal for him. Due to his previous training status, his new people should be willing to work with him on education and leash training. Indigo already knows how to be alone. Who is willing to work with Indigo consistently and fairly and give him the security that has been missing so far, gets a loyal and playful dog who is very attached to his trusted humans. -0 Fax: 089/90 73 20 Email

Indigo kam zu uns, weil seine bisherigen Besitzer mit ihm überfordert waren. Der Labradorrüde wurde am 03.09.2020 geboren, ist 63 cm groß, wiegt etwa 37 kg und ist unkastriert. Für Indigo suchen wir Menschen mit Hundeerfahrung, die ihm mit Ruhe, Geduld und konsequenter Führung Sicherheit und Orientierung geben können. Indigo ist mit Artgenossen verträglich und zeigt sich Menschen gegenüber, die er kennt, sehr freundlich, verschmust und verspielt. Fremden gegenüber ist Indigo sehr unsicher und kann in solchen Situationen abwehrbereit reagieren. Daher braucht er Menschen, die seine Unsicherheit ernst nehmen und ihm die nötige Zeit geben, Vertrauen aufzubauen. Ein Zuhause in einer ruhigen Gegend wäre für ihn ideal. Aufgrund seines bisherigen Ausbildungsstandes sollten seine neuen Menschen bereit sein, gemeinsam mit ihm an der Erziehung und Leinenführigkeit zu arbeiten. Das Alleinebleiben kennt Indigo bereits. Wer bereit ist, mit Indigo konsequent und fair zu arbeiten und ihm die Sicherheit zu geben, die ihm bisher gefehlt hat, bekommt einen anhänglichen und verspielten Hund, der seinen vertrauten Menschen sehr zugewandt ist. -0Fax: 089/90 73 20E-Mail

About INDIGO

What life with INDIGO looks like

INDIGO is a adult labrador retriever dog waiting at Tierschutzverein München.

An 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. Animals leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with a valid EU pet passport. Adoption fees usually fall between €250 and €450, covering veterinary preparation.
