Ingo

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

Ingo is a neutered, nearly 4-year-old (*2021) Bernese Mountain Dog–Rottweiler male. Unfortunately, he is not suited to family life with children, which is why he is looking for a new home that is a better fit for him. He is a dog who needs clear leadership and people who are aware of the genetics of the breeds. Due to carelessness on the part of people, a bite incident unfortunately occurred, but this in no way makes him an aggressive dog. He is well socialized, gets along wonderfully with female dogs, where he shows himself to be friendly and playful. Unfortunately, he no longer gets along with male dogs. He is very well trained, knows all the basic commands, and has a great recall. He is skeptical of strangers and does not want to be touched by them. Once you have won his heart and learn to know and read him, you will have a dreamy companion for life! Vierbeiner in Not e.V. is only providing placement assistance in Ingo's case. If you are interested in meeting this handsome fellow, please get in touch. We will arrange the contact.

Ingo ist ein knapp 5 Jähriger (*2021), kastrierter Bernhardiner-Rottweiler-Rüde. Er ist für das Familienleben mit Kindern leider nicht gemacht. Deshalb sucht er ein neues für ihn passenderes Zuhause. Er ist ein Hund der eine klare Führung braucht und Menschen, die sich der Genetik der Rassen bewusst sind. Durch Unachtsamkeit der Menschen ist leider ein Beißvorfall entstanden, der ihn aber keinesfalls zu einem aggressiven Hund macht. Er ist gut sozialisiert, versteht sich wunderbar mit Hündinnen, zeigt sich dort freundlich und verspielt. Mit Rüden versteht er sich leider nicht mehr. Er ist sehr gut erzogen, beherrscht alle Grundkommandos und hat einen tollen Rückruf. Fremden gegenüber ist er skeptisch und möchte nicht von ihnen angefasst werden. Wenn man erst einmal sein Herz gewonnen hat und ihn kennen- und lesen lernt, hat man einen traumhaften Wegbegleiter!Vierbeiner in Not e.V. leistet im Fall Ingo lediglich Vermittlungshilfe. Bei Interesse, den schönen Prachtkerl kennenzulernen, bitte melden. Wir stellen den Kontakt her.

About Ingo

What life with Ingo looks like

Ingo is an adult mixed breed dog waiting at Vierbeiner in Not e.V. in Germany.

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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Ingo, answered.

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