Adopt Keanu

Mixed Breed · Male

He lived on the streets in a small suburb of Patras. He was probably abandoned. Eliza and Garifalia were informed that people were throwing stones at Keanu and threatening to poison him. Although he was simply friendly, people were afraid of him. Eliza and Garifalia did not hesitate for long and carried him together into the car because he was afraid to get in alone. He took all of this without growling or even snapping. Keanu was placed in a pension in the mountains. There, he has plenty of room to run around. He lives peacefully with dogs and cats and loves the pension owner Giota. Still, he is a herding guard dog. During my visit to the pension, he greeted me appropriately. 😄 But, that’s his job! That's why these dogs were bred. However, once you win Keane's heart, he will love you devotedly. Are there people out there who understand and love herding guard dogs????????

lebte in einem kleinen Vorort von Patras auf der Straße. Vermutlich wurde er ausgestzt. Eliza und Garifalia wurden darüber informiert, dass die Leute Keanu mit Steinen bewarfen und drohten ihn zu vergiften. Obwohl er einfach nur freundlich war, hatten die Leute Angst vor ihm. Eliza und Garifalia zögerten nicht lange und trugen ihn gemeinsam ins Auto, weil er sich fürchtete alleine einzusteigen. Er ließ sich das alles gefallen ohne zu knurren oder gar zu schnappen. Keanu wurde in einer Pension in den Bergen untergebracht. Dort hat er viel Auslauf. Er lebt problemlos mit Hunden und Katzen zusammen und liebt die Pensionswirtin Giota. Dennoch ist er ein Herdenschutzhund. Bei meinem Besuch in der Pension hat er mich entsprechend begrüßt. 😄 Aber, das ist sein Job! Deswegen sind diese Hunde gezüchtet worden. Wenn man aber mal Keanus Herz erobert hat, dann liebt er einen abgöttisch. Gibt es irgendwo da draußen Menschen, die Herdenschutzhunde verstehen und lieben???????? Wir geben die Hoffnung nicht auf.

About Keanu

What life with Keanu looks like

Keanu is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at tierFAIRbunden n.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. 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 Keanu, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Keanu?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. tierFAIRbunden n.e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Keanu on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Keanu if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — tierFAIRbunden n.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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Keanu 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 Keanu 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 tierFAIRbunden n.e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Keanu 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.
