Ivo stammt ursprünglich aus Rumänien und kam als Welpe in seine Familie… dort lebt er 4 Jahre und verbrachte leider viel Zeit im Zwinger und an der Leine. Er ist ein menschenbezogener, freundlicher und wachsamer Hund. Er braucht den Anschluss an eine Familie und zeigt sich freundlich im Umgang mit anderen Hunden, insbesondere Hündinnen. Seine Treue und Selbstständigkeit machen ihn zu einem guten Begleiter. Ivo benötigt ein gut eingezäuntes Grundstück in ländlicher Umgebung, wo er sich frei bewegen darf. Sein Fell ist pflegeleicht und anspruchslos. Gelegentlich sollte es durchgebürstet werden, um es gesund und glänzend zu halten. Dieser große, selbstbewusste Hund ist feinfühlig und legt großen Wert auf eine enge emotionale Bindung zu seiner menschlichen Familie. Es ist wichtig, dass potenzielle Besitzer Erfahrung im Umgang mit Hunden haben. Fazit: Ivo ist ein treuer Begleiter, der durch seine freundliche Art und Loyalität das Herz seiner neuen Menschen erobern wird. Wenn Sie ihm ein liebevolles Zuhause in ländlicher Umgebung bieten können, in dem er sich frei und glücklich bewegen darf, wird er Ihnen ein lebenslanges Freundschaftsband schenken.

About Ivo

What life with Ivo looks like

Ivo is a large adult romanian shepherd dog waiting at Tierheim Eisenach in Eisenach.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Ivo, answered.

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