MONCHO

Shar Pei · Unknown · Adult · 5 years

MONCHO, born 08.2021. Breed: Shar Pei x Bulldog mix. Male. Food sponsorship possible. Moncho charms with his affectionate nature and willingness to learn. As is typical for a Shar Pei, however, he needs consistent leadership and training, especially when visitors come. Without this, he tends to restrict visitors and shows territorial behavior. With good leadership and clear management of space, Moncho can walk very well on a loose leash. He accepts this wonderfully and can also go for walks with other dogs without any conflicts. His strong prey drive, however, means he must be walked on a short leash or drag line. When encountering other dogs, it is clear that he did not have good socialization in the past. Without appropriate management, he tends to bully other dogs, wrestle, and demonstrate his strength. He is a true scrapper, and his self-confidence toward other dogs is impressive. He does not accept boundaries, which means he still needs a lot of training before he can run freely with other dogs without problems. Clear structure and boundaries are essential for him. Despite all this, he is incredibly charming and, as is typical for his age, shows puppyish, wild behavior. Moncho is an agile dog for whom purely physical exercise will not be enough for a relaxed life together. In his upbringing, he has so far learned no respect, no manners, and no rules, so a great deal of training is still required here as well. He loves water and swimming above all, and it doesn't bother him when it's below freezing outside; the dog pool is used until it freezes over. Although he is a mix and has been spared most of the physical problems typical of Shar Peis, he has already undergone a second operation on his eyelid, because his eyelashes injured the eye. As a result, his vision is somewhat limited.

MONCHOgeb. 08.2021. Rasse: Shar Pei x Bulldoggen MixRüdeFutterpatenschaft möglich Moncho bezaubert mit seiner Verschmustheit und Lernbereitschaft. Typisch für einen Sharpei benötigt er jedoch eine konsequente Führung und Training, besonders wenn Besuch kommt. Ohne diese neigt er dazu, Besucher einzuschränken und zeigt sich territorial.Unter guter Führung und mit klarer Raumverwaltung kann Moncho sehr gut an der lockeren Leine gehen. Er akzeptiert dies wunderbar und kann auch problemlos mit anderen Hunden spazieren gehen, ohne dass es zu Auseinandersetzungen kommt. Sein starker Jagdtrieb erfordert allerdings, dass er an einer kurzen Führ- oder Schleppleine geführt wird. Bei Begegnungen mit anderen Hunden zeigt sich, dass er in der Vergangenheit keine gute Sozialisierung erfahren hat. Ohne entsprechendes Management neigt er dazu, andere Hunde zu mobben, zu raufen und seine Stärke zu demonstrieren. Er ist ein regelrechter Raufbold, dessen Selbstbewusstsein gegenüber anderen Hunden beeindruckend ist. Er akzeptiert keine Grenzen, was bedeutet, dass er noch viel Training benötigt, bevor er problemlos frei mit anderen Hunden laufen kann. Klare Strukturen und Grenzen sind für ihn unerlässlich. Trotz allem ist er unglaublich charmant und zeigt sich alterstypisch pubertär und wild. Moncho ist ein agiler Hund, dem rein körperliche Auslastung für ein entspanntes Zusammenleben nicht ausreichen wird.In seiner Erziehung hat er bisher keinen Respekt, keine Manieren und keine Regeln kennengelernt, sodass auch hier noch viel Training erforderlich ist. Wasser und Schwimmen liebt er über alles, und es stört ihn nicht, wenn es draußen Minusgrade hat; der Hundepool wird genutzt, bis er zugefroren ist. Obwohl er ein Mischling ist und von den meisten sharpei-typischen körperlichen Problemen verschont geblieben ist, hat er bereits die zweite Operation am Augenlid hinter sich, da seine Wimpern das Auge verletzt haben. Dadurch ist seine Sicht etwas eingeschränkt.

About MONCHO

What life with MONCHO looks like

MONCHO is an adult shar pei dog waiting at Underdog Rescue e.V. in Germany.

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. Many dogs and cats leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport, but this varies by shelter, so confirm what is included with the shelter.

Frequently asked

Adopting MONCHO, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about MONCHO?
Use the "View on shelter website" button on this page, which takes you to the shelter's own page. Underdog Rescue e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw MONCHO on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt MONCHO if I live in another country?
Often, but it depends on the shelter and the countries involved. Some rescues place animals abroad and some only adopt out locally, so ask Underdog Rescue e.V. whether they will for MONCHO, what they require (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 MONCHO already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
TailHarbor has no vaccination, microchip or sterilization details for MONCHO. The adoption fee, and what it covers, is set by Underdog Rescue e.V., so confirm with them what is included (vaccinations, microchip, sterilization, paperwork) and ask about specific vaccines, recent bloodwork or chronic conditions.
What happens if MONCHO isn't the right fit?
Many rescues take an animal back if an adoption doesn't work, but policies differ, so ask Underdog Rescue e.V. about its return policy before you adopt. If things aren't working, talk it through with them early rather than rehoming privately; they know MONCHO 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.
