Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 9 years

Gentle giant looking for his people: Do you share affection with Julito? This fur nose was rescued from the Romanian streets and taken into the animal shelter, although we suspect that he had once a home before being abandoned. Find more information on how dogs come to the animal shelter and answers to general questions in our animal protection FAQ. Julito is a cuddly male dog who is very open and interested towards people from the start. Even before one enters his enclosure, he seeks contact and focuses entirely on his visitors. In direct interaction, he lets himself be touched and stroked immediately, enjoys closeness and actively requests it. He shows himself to be secure, friendly, and absolutely attentive. However, Julito seems to have difficulty understanding other dogs here at the animal shelter. On a daily basis at the shelter, Julito is often full of joy and brings along plenty of energy. He is very playful and loves nothing more than ball games. Additionally, he hugs close to one and sometimes "forgets" how big he actually is. Despite his size, he is very friendly, rather submissive, and occasionally exhibits puppy-like behavior. Outdoors, Julito has great enthusiasm for walks and enjoys being out and about. At first, he is often highly motivated and runs off briskly, but becomes calmer after a short time and is overall easy to handle. Putting on and taking off his harness works without any issues. Sadly, Julito suffers from hip dysplasia. Our adoption team knows best about his exact health condition. If you have more questions, feel free to send us a message. For Julito, we wish a home that appreciates a large, people-oriented dog, provides clear orientation, and accompanies him lovingly yet consistently through daily life. Julito desires sufficient physical and mental stimulation. We seek people who are aware that shelter dogs come with some history. We can never predict how a dog will react to life in Germany. Therefore, we look for individuals who bring patience, perseverance, and goodwill. Already smitten? Send us a self-disclosure form! Adoption If you are considering adopting, read through the first. All dogs are vaccinated, microchipped, dewormed, treated for fleas, and neutered before travel arrangements (with the exception of puppies up to 6 months and very old dogs). Dogs older than 1 year are also tested for Mediterranean diseases. If you still have questions, please feel free to write the animal shelter's placement team a message.

Sanfter Riese sucht seine Menschen: Schenkst du Julito Zuneigung? Diese Fellnase wurde von der rumänischen Straße gerettet und im Tierheim aufgenommen, jedoch vermuten wir, dass er bereits einmal ein Zuhause hatte und ausgesetzt wurde. Mehr Informationen darüber, wie die Hunde ins Tierheim kommen und Antworten auf generelle Fragen findest du in unserem Tierschutz-FAQ . Julito ist ein verschmuster Rüde, der Menschen gegenüber von Anfang an sehr offen und interessiert ist. Schon bevor man seinen Zwinger betritt, sucht er den Kontakt und richtet seine Aufmerksamkeit ganz auf seine Besucher. Im direkten Umgang lässt er sich sofort anfassen und streicheln, genießt Nähe und fordert diese auch aktiv ein. Dabei zeigt er sich sicher, freundlich und absolut zugewandt. Mit anderen Hunden scheint Julito sich hier im Tierheim jedoch leider nicht besonders gut zu verstehen. Im Tierheimalltag ist Julito oft voller Freude und bringt dabei eine gute Portion Energie mit. Er ist sehr verspielt und liebt nichts mehr als Ballspiele. Außerdem drückt er sich eng an einen und „vergisst“ manchmal, wie groß er eigentlich ist. Trotz seiner Größe ist er dabei sehr freundlich, eher unterwürfig und zeigt manchmal ein fast welpenhaftes Verhalten. Draußen hat Julito große Lust auf Spaziergänge und ist gerne unterwegs. Am Anfang ist er oft sehr motiviert und läuft entsprechend zügig los, wird aber nach kurzer Zeit ruhiger und ist insgesamt gut händelbar. Das Geschirr an- und ausziehen klappt problemlos. Julito leidet leider an Hüftdysplasie. Über den genauen Gesundheitszustand weiß unser Vermittlungsteam am besten Bescheid. Wenn du noch Fragen hast, schreib uns gern eine Nachricht . Für Julito wünschen wir uns ein Zuhause, das Freude an einem großen, menschenbezogenen Hund hat, ihm klare Orientierung gibt und ihn liebevoll, aber konsequent durch den Alltag begleitet. Julito wünscht sich genügend körperliche sowie geistige Auslastung. Wir wünschen uns für diese Fellnase Menschen, denen bewusst ist, dass Tierschutzhunde eine gewisse Geschichte mitbringen. Wir können im Tierheim nie vorhersagen, wie ein Hund auf das Leben in Deutschland reagieren wird. Deswegen suchen wir Menschen, die Geduld, Durchhaltevermögen und Wohlwollen mitbringen. Schon verliebt? Schick uns eine Selbstauskunft! Adoption Wenn du über eine Adoption nachdenkst, lies dir zunächst den Vermittlungsablauf durch. Alle Hunde werden vor der Ausreise geimpft, gechipt, entwurmt, entfloht und kastriert (Ausnahme sind Welpen bis 6 Monate und sehr alte Hunde). Hunde, die älter als 1 Jahr sind, werden zudem auf Mittelmeerkrankheiten getestet. Wenn du noch Fragen hast, schreibe unserem Vermittlungsteam gern eine Nachricht.

About Julito

What life with Julito looks like

Julito is a large senior mixed breed dog waiting at Hunderettung Europa e.V. in Duisburg.

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

Frequently asked

Adopting Julito, answered.

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