Neo

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 9 years

adoption requirements adoption process Now request this animal! adoption requirements adoption process Now request this dog! Neo was rescued from the worst conditions in September 2023. His past is marked by suffering: he was abused for dog fights, was severely undernourished, and in a terrible physical state – a heap of skin and bones. Fortunately, a vigilant woman noticed him and alerted our animal welfare worker Stefan. He immediately went to get Neo and brought him to safety. Since then, Neo has been living with Stefan – although he is safe there, the living conditions are far from ideal: due to space and safety concerns, Neo must be chained and has no contact with fellow animals. This husbandry does not align with our club's principles, but it was the only alternative to a death on the streets or continued captivity in the world of dog fights. Despite everything, Neo shows himself to be an incredibly friendly and loving dog. He enjoys car rides very much and is always thrilled when he is picked up for a walk. He already walks well on a leash. Stefan's daughters take good care of him – so Neo is already familiar with interacting with children aged 12 and above and gets along well with them. We have not yet tested his behavior towards other dogs. Therefore, it would be ideal if no other dog lived in his future home. Also, there should be no cats or other small animals in the household. Neo is currently approximately 7–8 years old and ready for a new beginning. Neo is a list dog, likely an American Staffordshire Terrier-Mix. In Germany, this breed is classified as a Category-1 dog, which means we unfortunately cannot rehome Neo to Germany.

Vermittlungsvoraussetzungen Vermittlungsablauf Jetzt dieses Tier anfragen! Vermittlungsvoraussetzungen Vermittlungsablauf Jetzt diesen Hund anfragen! Neo wurde im September 2023 aus schlimmsten Verhältnissen gerettet. Seine Vergangenheit ist geprägt von Leid: Er wurde für Hundekämpfe missbraucht, war stark unterernährt und körperlich in einem erbärmlichen Zustand – ein Häufchen Elend aus Haut und Knochen. Zum Glück wurde eine aufmerksame Frau auf ihn aufmerksam und alarmierte unseren Tierschützer Stefan. Dieser machte sich sofort auf den Weg und konnte Neo in Sicherheit bringen. Seitdem lebt Neo bei Stefan – dort ist er zwar in Sicherheit, doch die Lebensumstände sind alles andere als ideal: Aus Platz- und Sicherheitsgründen muss Neo angekettet bleiben und hat keinen Kontakt zu Artgenossen. Diese Haltung entspricht nicht unseren Vereinsgrundsätzen, war aber die einzige Alternative zu einem sicheren Tod auf der Straße oder der weiteren Gefangenschaft in der Welt der Hundekämpfe. Trotz allem zeigt sich Neo als unglaublich freundlicher und liebevoller Hund. Er genießt Autofahrten sehr und freut sich jedes Mal riesig, wenn er für einen Spaziergang abgeholt wird. An der Leine läuft er schon recht gut. Stefans Töchter kümmern sich liebevoll um ihn – daher kennt Neo bereits den Umgang mit Kindern ab 12 Jahren und kommt mit ihnen bestens zurecht. Sein Verhalten gegenüber anderen Hunden konnten wir bisher nicht testen. Deshalb wäre es ideal, wenn in seinem zukünftigen Zuhause kein Ersthund lebt. Auch Katzen und andere Kleintiere sollte es vorsichtshalber nicht im Haushalt geben. Neo ist aktuell etwa 7–8 Jahre alt und bereit für einen Neuanfang. Neo ist ein Listenhund, vermutlich ein American Staffordshire Terrier-Mix. In Deutschland gilt diese Rasse als Kategorie-1-Hund, was bedeutet, dass wir Neo leider nicht nach Deutschland vermitteln dürfen. Eine

About Neo

What life with Neo looks like

Neo is a extra-large senior mixed breed dog waiting at Ein Herz für Streuner e.V. in München.

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 Neo, answered.

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