Nana

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 10 years

Nana wartet schon seit Jahren, bisher interessierte sich leider niemand für diesen außergewöhnlichen Rüden. Nana wirkt durch seine körperliche Statur erst einmal beeindruckend. Dabei ist er laut Cornelia, die ihn seit Jahren beherbergt, so ziemlich der unkomplizierteste und freundlichste Hund im ganzen Tierheim. Nana ist extrem menschenbezogen, er liebt es so sehr gestreichelt zu werden und ist dabei sehr sanft, auch im Umgang mit Kindern. Der Rüde versteht sich mit allen anderen Hunden, egal ob Hündin oder Rüde. Nana mag alle und ist somit auch perfekt als Zweithund geeignet. Sollten Sie im Besitz einer Katze sein, so stellt dies für unseren „Sanften“ auch überhaupt kein Problem dar. Nana findet alle anderen Lebewesen toll. Einzig sein Leben im Tierheim sollte, wenn es nach ihm geht, doch schnell beendet werden. Er würde seinen Menschen so gerne zeigen, welch toller Charakter und welch großes und treues Hundeherz in ihm steckt. Wir drücken Nana ganz fest die Daumen, dass er sein wirkliches für immer Zuhause noch finden wird. Aufgrund der kupierten Rute, kann Nana leider nicht in die Schweiz vermittelt werden. Sollten Sie Interesse an Nana haben, dann melden Sie sich doch bitte bei uns. Ansprechpartner: Diese E-Mail-Adresse ist vor Spambots geschützt! Zur Anzeige muss JavaScript eingeschaltet sein.

About Nana

What life with Nana looks like

Nana is a large senior mixed breed dog waiting at Rifugio Canalba e.V. in Germany.

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 Nana, answered.

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