Johnny

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 4 years

A carelessly uncovered manhole almost proved disastrous for these two puppies. Someone had left it open and the siblings fell in. The pitiful whining fortunately alerted locals to the great misfortune. As the rescue was not possible for the angels themselves, the Vigili di Fuoco were called, who arrived with full crew. It was not easy, but after some time Johnny and Genna were rescued unharmed. They are now housed at LIDA Olbia and we hope they can travel to their family soon. Luggage is packed from mid-July 2022. For questions about our protégés, or if you would like to offer JOHNNY a place as a family member in a foster home or forever home, please contact: .

Ein unachtsam nicht abgedeckter Gulli wäre fast zum Verhängnis für diese beiden Welpen geworden. Irgendjemand hatte ihn offen gelassen und die beiden Geschwister sind hineingefallen. Das jämmerliche Winseln hatte durch einen großen Zufall Einheimische auf das große Unglück aufmerksam gemacht. Da die Bergung für die Schutzengel selbst nicht möglich war, wurden di Vigili di Fuoco verständigt, die mit voller Besatzung angerückt waren. Es war nicht ganz einfach, doch nach einiger Zeit konnten Johnny und Genna unversehrt geborgen werden. Nun sind sie in der LIDA Olbia untergebracht und wir hoffen, dass sie schon bald zu IHRER Familie ausreisen können. Ab Mitte Juli 2022 sind die Koffer gepackt. Bei Fragen zu unseren Schützlingen, oder aber wenn Sie JOHNNY einen Platz als Familienmitglied auf einer Pflegestelle oder Endstelle anbieten möchten, dann melden Sie sich bitte bei: .

About Johnny

What life with Johnny looks like

Johnny is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at SardinienHunde e.V. in Germany.

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

Frequently asked

Adopting Johnny, answered.

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