Momo (m)

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Senior · 16 years

<3 Foster home needed in 80686 Munich <3 Momo – a sensitive treasure in search of his soulmate Momo was born in March 2024, is about 60 cm tall, and weighs around 25 kg. At the end of August, he arrived at his foster home in Munich, where he currently lives in a mixed pack. In the first weeks, Momo could not be touched due to bad experiences, which he also showed through snapping. However, through intensive training, trust could be built step by step. Today, Momo is an absolutely uncomplicated dog in his foster home, strongly oriented towards his primary caregiver. He is now open and approachable towards other family members as well. Visitors he knows can also pet him without any problems. Momo has mastered car rides effortlessly – even a trip to Spain was handled with ease. When it comes to interacting with other dogs, he does not yet seek direct contact but often challenges them to run together. He remains respectful and never becomes aggressive. Contact with cats is completely unproblematic. Momo is excellently recallable, shows no prey drive, is leash-trained, and can stay alone without issues. At home, he is calm, balanced, and very cuddly. He accompanies his primary caregiver relaxed through everyday life – whether to the furniture store, restaurant, or friends. Loud noises such as traffic, household appliances, or helicopters do not unsettle him. Important to know: Due to his past, Momo brings a certain basic skepticism towards people. His trust must be patiently earned – it does not come automatically. Therefore, he is looking for a confident primary caregiver who provides him with security, makes decisions, and serves as a guide. Momo tends to withdraw from situations. This requires a good sense of how to lead him gently without overwhelming him. Those who are willing to invest time, patience, and commitment in building trust will be rewarded with an extremely loyal companion who faithfully stands by their side through life. Momo will not be rehomed into a family with children under 16 years old. An securely fenced garden would be ideal to give him the necessary time and peace for acclimatization. Initially, patience will be needed until he opens up to new people, allows himself to be touched everywhere, and can go on walks.

<3 auf Pflegestelle in 80686 München <3 Momo – ein sensibler Schatz auf der Suche nach seinem Herzensmenschen Momo wurde im März 2024 geboren, ist etwa 60 cm groß und wiegt ca. 25 kg. Ende August ist er auf seiner Pflegestelle in München angekommen, wo er aktuell in einem gemischten Rudel lebt. In den ersten Wochen ließ sich Momo aufgrund schlechter Erfahrungen nicht anfassen und zeigte dies auch durch Schnappen. Durch intensives Training konnte jedoch Schritt für Schritt Vertrauen aufgebaut werden. Heute ist Momo auf seiner Pflegestelle ein absolut unkomplizierter Hund, der sich stark an seiner Bezugsperson orientiert. Auch gegenüber anderen Familienmitgliedern zeigt er sich inzwischen offen und zugewandt. Besucher, die er kennt, dürfen ihn ebenfalls problemlos streicheln. Autofahren meistert Momo mittlerweile problemlos – selbst eine Reise nach Spanien hat er souverän bewältigt. Im Umgang mit anderen Hunden möchte er noch keinen direkten Kontakt, fordert sie aber mittlerweile gerne zum gemeinsamen Rennen auf. Dabei bleibt er stets respektvoll und wird nicht übergriffig. Auch der Kontakt mit Katzen ist völlig unproblematisch. Momo ist hervorragend abrufbar, zeigt keinen Jagdtrieb, ist leinenführig und kann problemlos alleine bleiben. Zuhause ist er ruhig, ausgeglichen und sehr verschmust. Er begleitet seine Bezugsperson entspannt durch den Alltag – ob ins Möbelhaus, ins Restaurant oder zu Freunden. Auch laute Geräusche wie Straßenverkehr, Haushaltsgeräte oder Hubschrauber verunsichern ihn nicht. Wichtig zu wissen: Aufgrund seiner Vergangenheit bringt Momo eine gewisse Grundskepsis gegenüber Menschen mit. Sein Vertrauen muss man sich geduldig erarbeiten – es kommt nicht von selbst. Deshalb sucht er eine souveräne Bezugsperson, die ihm Sicherheit gibt, Entscheidungen übernimmt und an der er sich orientieren kann. Momo neigt dazu, sich Situationen zu entziehen. Hier braucht es ein gutes Gespür, ihn behutsam zu führen, ohne ihn zu bedrängen. Wer bereit ist, Zeit, Geduld und Engagement in den Vertrauensaufbau zu investieren, wird mit einem äußerst loyalen Begleiter belohnt, der treu an der Seite seines Menschen durchs Leben geht. Momo wird nicht in eine Familie mit Kindern unter 16 Jahren vermittelt. Ein sicher eingezäunter Garten wäre ideal, um ihm die nötige Zeit und Ruhe für die Eingewöhnung zu geben. Es wird anfangs Geduld brauchen, bis er sich auf neue Menschen einlässt, sich überall anfassen lässt und Spaziergänge möglich sind. Optimal wäre ein Zuhause in der Nähe seiner Pflegestelle, damit Interessenten ihn vor der

About Momo (m)

What life with Momo (m) looks like

Momo (m) is a medium-sized senior mixed breed dog waiting at Tiernothilfe Casa Katharina e.V. in Nürnberg.

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.

🇩🇪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 Momo (m), answered.

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