Kleiner Senior mit Herz sucht gemütliches Plätzchen 💛

Maltese · Unknown · Senior · 14 years

Hello dear human 🐾🙂 I am Lino – a Malteser-Mix and proud at 14 years old. Yes, I am already a little senior… but one with a whole lot of heart 💛 My Frauchen sadly passed away, and since then, my world has turned a bit upside down. That’s why now I just wish for a loving home where I can start anew. I am actually a really nice guy. My favorite place to be is snuggled up very close to my person – ideally in the same bed. Closeness gives me security, and I really enjoy every little pat 🐾 With other dogs, I get along just fine, so I am a relaxed and agreeable companion. But I have to be honest with you: there are a few things I just don’t have much enthusiasm for 😄 For example, brushing or a visit to the groomer… I can already show you that I find that a bit silly. So in such situations, I simply wear a muzzle – I know it and it’s absolutely no problem for me. What is really important to me: understanding, patience, and a person who takes me as I am – with my little quirks. For that, you get a loyal, loving companion who just wants to be by your side 💛 By the way, my care costs can be discussed for adoption, so you don’t have to worry about that. Maybe I can spend my twilight years with you? If you would like to meet me, send an email or leave a message on my answering machine at ☏ 0231 – 87 53 97 with your contact details.

Hallo lieber Mensch 🐾🙂 ich bin Lino – ein Malteser-Mix und stolze 14 Jahre alt. Ja, ich bin schon ein kleiner Senior… aber einer mit ganz viel Herz 💛 Mein Frauchen ist leider verstorben, und seitdem hat sich meine Welt ein bisschen auf den Kopf gestellt. Deshalb wünsche ich mir jetzt nichts mehr als ein liebevolles Zuhause, in dem ich nochmal ankommen darf. Ich bin eigentlich ein richtig lieber Kerl. Am allerliebsten schlafe ich ganz nah bei meinem Menschen – am besten mit im Bett. Nähe gibt mir Sicherheit, und ich genieße jede Streicheleinheit sehr 🐾 Mit anderen Hunden komme ich gut klar, ich bin also ein entspannter und verträglicher Begleiter. Aber ich bin ehrlich zu dir: Es gibt ein paar Dinge, auf die ich so gar keine Lust habe 😄 Zum Beispiel Bürsten oder der Besuch beim Hundefriseur… da kann ich schon mal zeigen, dass ich das blöd finde. Deshalb trage ich in solchen Situationen einfach einen Maulkorb – das kenne ich und das ist für mich überhaupt kein Problem. Was mir wirklich wichtig ist: Verständnis, Geduld und ein Mensch, der mich so nimmt, wie ich bin – mit meinen kleinen Eigenheiten. Dafür bekommst du einen treuen, liebevollen Begleiter, der einfach nur bei dir sein möchte 💛 Meine Pflegekosten können übrigens in Absprache übernommen werden, sodass du dir darüber keine Sorgen machen musst. Vielleicht darf ich meinen Lebensabend bei dir verbringen? Falls du mich kennenlernen möchtest, schreib eine Mail an oder hinterlass eine Nachricht auf dem Anrufbeantworter unter ☏ 0231 – 87 53 97 mit deinen Kontaktdaten. Dein Lino 🐾💛

What life with Kleiner Senior mit Herz sucht gemütliches Plätzchen 💛 looks like

Kleiner Senior mit Herz sucht gemütliches Plätzchen 💛 is a small senior maltese dog waiting at Arche90 e.V. Dortmund in Dortmund.

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.

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.
