Mimo

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 7 years

Mimo is a beautiful large male dog whose calm and loving nature immediately touches people's hearts. He belongs to those dogs that do not loudly ask for attention; his friendly eyes and gentle nature speak for themselves. Whoever meets Mimo will always be greeted warmly. With cautious tail wagging, he approaches people and enjoys petting and cherishes every loving attention. He particularly likes being brushed and loves it when you scratch his belly. In doing so, he shows himself to be patient, respectful, and incredibly trusting. Mimo is a balanced and relaxed companion; he walks excellently on the leash and likes to orientate himself towards his human. Even without a leash, he remains attentive and comes reliably back when called. He loves exploring his surroundings in peace while enjoying the proximity of his person. He gets along very well with other dogs and lives peacefully with them. He greets strange dogs friendly and calmly, and even barking fellow dogs do not disturb him. His gentle character makes him a wonderful family dog and he would be perfect for people who have no experience with dogs yet. Today, he shows every day anew how loving and friendly he is. For Mimo, we wish for a home full of security and love where he can finally arrive. People who appreciate his calm soul will have a loyal friend for life with him, a dog that does not demand much but has endless love to give.

Mimo ist ein wunderschöner großer Rüde der mit seiner ruhigen und liebevollen Art sofort die Herzen der Menschen berührt. Er gehört zu jenen Hunden die nicht lautstark um Aufmerksamkeit bitten, seine freundlichen Augen und sein sanftes Wesen sprechen für sich. Wer Mimo begegnet wird stets freundlich begrüßt. Mit vorsichtigen Schwanzwedeln kommt er auf Menschen zu und freut sich über Streicheleinheiten und genießt jede liebevolle Zuwendung. Besonders gerne lässt er sich bürsten und liebt es wenn man seinen Bauch krault. Dabei zeigt er sich stets geduldig, respektvoll und unglaublich vertrauensvoll. Mimo ist ein ausgeglichener und entspannter Begleiter, er läuft hervorragend an der Leine und orientiert sich gerne an seinem Menschen. Auch ohne Leine bleibt er aufmerksam und kommt zuverlässig zurück wenn man ihn ruft. Er liebt es seine Umgebung in Ruhe zu erkunden und dabei die Nähe seiner Bezugsperson zu genießen. Mit anderen Hunden versteht er sich sehr gut und lebt friedlich mit ihnen zusammen. Fremden Hunden begegnet er freundlich und gelassen und selbst bellende Artgenossen bringen ihn nicht aus der Ruhe. Sein sanfter Charakter macht ihn zu einem wunderbaren Familienhund und er wäre perfekt für Menschen die noch keine Hundeerfahrung haben. Heute zeigt er jeden Tag aufs Neue wie liebevoll und freundlich er ist. Für Mimo wünschen wir uns ein Zuhause voller Geborgenheit und Liebe in dem er endlich ankommen darf. Menschen die seine ruhige Seele zu schätzen wissen werden mit ihm einen treuen Freund fürs Leben haben, einen Hund der nicht viel verlangt aber unendlich viel Liebe zu geben hat.

About Mimo

What life with Mimo looks like

Mimo is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Franziskus-Tierheim Hamburg in Hamburg.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 Mimo, answered.

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