Nemo

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 9 years

Nemo, a large (approx. 40kg) male Mastiff mix, was born around January 2017. He is currently living in a Spanish euthanasia station near Puertollano. His background is unknown. Unfortunately, large dogs struggle to find a family that is willing to take them in and has the experience to care for dogs of this size and breed. We are therefore looking for people who would like to adopt Nemo permanently. Nemo is approximately 9 years old and large (approx. 40kg). According to local animal welfare advocates, Nemo is a gentle and calm male who enjoys petting and is friendly towards people. He also gets along well with other dogs. He is no problem walking on a leash. When Nemo arrived at the euthanasia station, he had wounds on his neck and one ear. These were treated, but one ear is deformed.

Januar 2017 Schulterhöhe: groß (ca. 40kg) Der liebevolle Nemo lebt aktuell in einer spanischen Tötungsstation in der Nähe von Puertollano. Über seine Vorgeschichte ist nichts bekannt. Leider tun sich große Hunde schwer, eine Familie zu finden, die sich bei sich aufnehmen möchte und die die Erfahrung für die Haltung von Hunden dieser Größe und Rassen mit sich bringt. Für Nemo suchen wir daher nach den Menschen, die ihn gerne für immer bei sich aufnehmen möchten. Nemo ist ca. 9 Jahre alt und groß (ca. 40kg). Laut Aussage der Tierschützer vor Ort ist Nemo ein lieber und ruhiger Rüde, der Streicheleinheiten sehr genießt und freundlich auf Menschen zugeht. Auch mit Artgenossen versteht er sich gut. An der Leine gehen ist für ihn kein Problem. Als Nemo in die Tötungsstation gekommen ist, hatte er Wunden am Hals und an einem Ohr. Diese wurden behandelt, jedoch ist das eine Ohr verformt, wesh

About Nemo

What life with Nemo looks like

Nemo is a large senior mixed breed dog waiting at Casa Animalis 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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Nemo, answered.

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