Linares (TW)

Mixed Breed · Male

The friendly male Pointer Linares (TW)—like the Pointers Scoot and Mancha—comes from a seizure. The three male dogs lived on Fuerteventura with a hunter in utterly deplorable conditions: chained short on concrete, surrounded by garbage and filth, without veterinary care, and severely emaciated. By now, Linares (TW) has recovered well; his wounds have healed, and he has gained significant weight. Despite everything he has been through, he shows himself to be an exceptionally open, cheerful, and people-oriented male dog. He greets us brimming with joy and overflowing enthusiasm—whenever we arrive, he’d love nothing more than to leap straight into our arms. He adores petting, though standing still calmly during cuddles is still a bit challenging for him. As the youngest of the three, Linares (TW) appears to have processed his past the best. He brings abundant energy, curiosity, and drive, and his positive nature even lifts the spirits of his two companions. At the same time, he still lacks some body awareness—unsurprising after a life spent on a short chain. He’s a little whirlwind who still needs to learn how to use his body with purpose. However, his natural athleticism is definitely evident. Contact with other dogs is very important to him, and he has formed especially close bonds with Scoot and Mancha. The three lie tightly together, naturally share their kennels, and offer each other mutual support. When it comes to mealtime, Linares (TW) confidently claims his place but remains fair about it. It’s hard for Linares (TW) when his humans leave—he calls out after them and searches for their presence long after they’re gone. We are looking for a rural home with active, empathetic people who enjoy showing this agile Pointer the world—people who will patiently teach him everything he hasn’t yet had the chance to learn while also providing him with security and a sense of belonging. An existing, social first dog would surely be a great support for him. A securely fenced garden or the opportunity for ample off-leash exercise should also be available. If you’d like to show dear Linares (TW) the sunny side of dog life from now on, please don’t hesitate to contact us at our shelter.

Der freund­li­che Poin­ter Rüde Lina­res stammt – wie die Poin­ter Scoot und Man­cha – aus einer Beschlag­nah­mung. Die drei Rüden leb­ten auf Fuer­te­ven­tura bei einem Jäger unter unwür­digs­ten Bedin­gun­gen: an kur­zer Ket­te auf Beton, zwi­schen Müll und Dreck, ohne medi­zi­ni­sche Ver­sor­gung und stark abge­ma­gert. Inzwi­schen hat sich Lina­res gut erholt, sei­ne Wun­den sind ver­heilt und er hat deut­lich an Gewicht zuge­legt. Trotz allem, was er erlebt hat, zeigt er sich als aus­ge­spro­chen offe­ner, fröh­li­cher und men­schen­be­zo­ge­ner Rüde. Er begeg­net uns vol­ler Lebens­freu­de und über­schäu­men­der Begeis­te­rung – wenn wir kom­men, möch­te er am liebs­ten direkt in unse­re Arme sprin­gen. Strei­chel­ein­hei­ten liebt er sehr, selbst wenn ihm das ruhi­ge Ste­hen­blei­ben dabei noch ein biss­chen schwer­fällt. Als jüngs­ter der drei hat Lina­res die Ver­gan­gen­heit offen­bar am bes­ten ver­ar­bei­tet. Er bringt viel Ener­gie, Neu­gier und Taten­drang mit und steckt mit sei­ner posi­ti­ven Art auch sei­ne bei­den Gefähr­ten an. Gleich­zei­tig fehlt ihm noch etwas das Kör­per­ge­fühl – kein Wun­der, nach einem Leben an der kur­zen Ket­te. Er ist ein klei­ner Wir­bel­wind, der erst noch ler­nen darf, wie er sei­nen Kör­per gezielt ein­set­zen kann. Die Anla­gen für Sport­lich­keit sind aber defi­ni­tiv vor­han­den. Der Kon­takt zu Art­ge­nos­sen ist ihm sehr wich­tig. Beson­ders zu Scoot und Man­cha hat er eine enge Bin­dung auf­ge­baut. Die drei lie­gen eng bei­ein­an­der, tei­len sich selbst­ver­ständ­lich ihre Hüt­ten und geben sich gegen­sei­tig Halt. Beim Fres­sen weiß Lina­res sei­nen Platz ein­zu­for­dern, bleibt dabei aber fair. Für Lina­res ist es schwer, wenn sei­ne Men­schen gehen – er ruft ihnen hin­ter­her und sucht lan­ge ihre Nähe. Für Lina­res wün­schen wir uns ein länd­li­ches Zuhau­se bei akti­ven, ein­fühl­sa­men Men­schen, die Freu­de dar­an haben, die­sem agi­len Poin­ter die Welt zu zei­gen. Men­schen, die ihm gedul­dig alles bei­brin­gen, was er bis­her nicht ken­nen­ler­nen durf­te, und ihm gleich­zei­tig Sicher­heit und Zuge­hö­rig­keit geben. Ein vor­han­de­ner, sozia­ler Erst­hund wäre für ihn sicher eine gro­ße Unter­stüt­zung. Ein sicher ein­ge­zäun­ter Gar­ten oder die Mög­lich­keit zu aus­rei­chend Frei­lauf soll­te eben­falls vor­han­den sein. Möch­ten Sie dem lie­ben Lina­res ab jetzt die Son­nen­sei­ten eines Hun­de­sle­bens zei­gen, dann mel­den Sie sich gern bei uns.

About Linares (TW)

What life with Linares (TW) looks like

Linares (TW) is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierhilfe Fuerteventura in Dransfeld.

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 Linares (TW), answered.

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