Manos

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

The friendly Manos must have been born around May 25. Manos is a good 50-55cm tall and weighs approximately 16.5kg. In January, he suddenly wandered around the house of my friend alone. She sent me photos with the comment: "I'm not taking him, I can't take it anymore, there are so many!" I can understand that, we regularly reach our limit here and of course we really can't always take every dog. I asked her to at least have him neutered. Said, done, but that was of course no reason for Manos to leave the neighborhood. And I hardly know a dog that wouldn't ultimately win over Maria 😉 At the latest one month later, he moved in, and I think it's a good thing. The lovable guy really deserved his home. He loves people and other dogs and is an ideal family dog. He has had good experiences with children aged 6 to 11 and vice versa. Manos is ready to move in now.

Der freundliche Manos müsste in etwa Mai 25 zur Welt gekommen sein. Manos ist gute 50-55cm hoch und wiegt ungefähr 16,5kg Im Januar wuselte er plötzlich alleine vor dem Haus meiner Freundin herum. Sie schickte mir Fotos mit dem Kommentar: “ Ich nehme den aber nicht auf, ich kann nicht mehr, es sind so viele! “ So etwas kann ich gut verstehen, wir kommen hier regelmäßig an unser Limit und natürlich können wir auch wirklich nicht immer jeden Hund aufnehmen. Ich bat sie, ihn zumindest kastrieren zu lassen. Gesagt, getan, doch das war für Manos natürlich erst recht kein Grund die Nachbarschaft zu verlassen. Und ich habe noch kaum einen Hund kennengelernt, der bei Maria zu guter Letzt nicht siegen würde 😉 Spätestens einen Monat später war er eingezogen, und ich finde es auch gut so. Der liebenswerte Kerl hat sich wirklich sein zu Hause verdient. Lieb mit Menschen und anderen Hunden ist er ein optimaler Familienhund. Mit Kindern von 6 bis 11 hat er gute Erfahrung gemacht und umgekehrt. Manos ist ab sofort bereit umzuziehen.

About Manos

What life with Manos looks like

Manos is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Hundehilfe Kreta e.V. in Germany.

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

Frequently asked

Adopting Manos, answered.

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