Kimbo

Rottweiler · Male · Adult · 3 years

Kimbo is seeking his fortune Kimbo has been waiting since March 2025 at a Spanish animal shelter, hoping for his chance and the person who truly understands him. The strong and imposing Rottweiler not only brings an impressive appearance but also a strong personality and a loyal heart – for the right person. Kimbo is not a dog who opens up to everyone immediately. He needs time to build trust and decides for himself who he will open his heart to. But those who give him this time will be rewarded with a loyal and loving companion. Walking is one of his favorite activities. Kimbo walks well on a leash and remains calm around cars and people. He also meets other dogs with interest, but not aggression. Especially beautiful: he shares his kennel with a female dog without any problems, showing that he gets along well with compatible fellow animals. In the yard, Kimbo truly comes alive – here he shows his playful side and loves chasing his ball. Once he has gained trust, he can develop into a real cuddle bear. For Kimbo, we are searching for an experienced, calm, and confident home. His new people should ideally have experience with Rottweilers or similar strong dog breeds and be ready to meet him with patience, respect, and clear leadership. A household with children is not an option for him. Kimbo is a special dog for special people. If you have the necessary experience and are willing to give the strong-willed dog the time he needs, Kimbo could be the faithful companion you are looking for.

Kimbo sucht sein Glück Kimbo wartet seit März 2025 in einem spanischen Tierheim auf seine Chance – und auf den Menschen, der ihn wirklich versteht. Der kräftige und imposante Rottweiler bringt nicht nur eine beeindruckende Erscheinung mit, sondern auch eine starke Persönlichkeit und ein treues Herz – für den richtigen Menschen. Kimbo ist kein Hund, der sich sofort jedem öffnet. Er braucht Zeit, um Vertrauen aufzubauen, und entscheidet selbst, wem er sein Herz schenkt. Doch wer ihm diese Zeit gibt, wird mit einem loyalen und liebevollen Begleiter belohnt. Spaziergänge gehören zu seinen Lieblingsbeschäftigungen. Kimbo läuft gut an der Leine und zeigt sich dabei gelassen gegenüber Autos und Menschen. Auch anderen Hunden begegnet er interessiert, aber nicht aggressiv. Besonders schön: Er teilt sich problemlos seine Box mit einer Hündin, was zeigt, dass er mit passenden Artgenossen gut zurechtkommt. Im Auslauf blüht Kimbo richtig auf – hier zeigt er seine verspielte Seite und liebt es, seinem Ball hinterherzujagen. Hat er einmal Vertrauen gefasst, kann er sich zu einem echten Kuschelbären entwickeln. Für Kimbo suchen wir ein erfahrenes, ruhiges und selbstbewusstes Zuhause. Seine neuen Menschen sollten idealerweise Erfahrung mit Rottweilern oder ähnlichen kräftigen Hunderassen haben und bereit sein, ihm mit Geduld, Respekt und klarer Führung zu begegnen. Ein Haushalt mit Kindern kommt für ihn nicht infrage. Kimbo ist ein besonderer Hund für besondere Menschen. Wenn Sie die nötige Erfahrung mitbringen und einem charakterstarken Hund die Zeit geben, die er braucht, könnte Kimbo genau der treue Begleiter sein, den Sie suchen.

About Kimbo

What life with Kimbo looks like

Kimbo is a adult rottweiler dog waiting at SALVA Hundehilfe 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 Kimbo, answered.

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