Nero – Kleiner Zottel sucht sein Zuhause🐾 .fusion-body .fusion-builder-column-36 > .fusion-body .fusion-flex-container .fusion-imageframe.imageframe-5 img{aspect-ratio:1 / 1;object-position:24% 41%;} .fusion-body .fusion-builder-column-37 > Aufenthaltsort: Tierheim in Osijek, Kroatien Geschlecht: weiblich, kastriert Geburtsdatum: 24.05.2023 Schulterhöhe: ca. 35-40cm, 15 kg Verträglichkeit mit Katzen ideale Umgebung: Stadtrand, ländlich geeignet für: ambitionierte Hundeanfänger .fusion-body .fusion-button Direkt zur Selbstauskunft .fusion-body .fusion-builder-column-38 > .fusion-body .fusion-flex-container .fusion-gallery-5 .fusion-body .fusion-builder-column-39 > .fusion-body .fusion-flex-container Schon mal einem Hund begegnet, der aussieht wie ein kleiner, zotteliger Straßenpoet auf kurzen Beinchen – und dabei sofort hängen bleibt ? Das ist Nero. Nero ist optisch ein echtes Original: kompakt gebaut, leicht chubby, mit kurzen Beinen und diesem wilden schwarzen Zottelfell, das ihm einen herrlich verwegenen Look verleiht. Dazu seine warmen braunen Augen und sein wachsamer Blick – ein Hund mit Persönlichkeit im Gesicht. Kein geschniegelt-schicker Modehund, sondern ein kerniger kleiner Kerl mit Charakter und Ausstrahlung. Nero ist eher der vorsichtige Typ. Neue Situationen und vor allem andere Hunde brauchen bei ihm etwas Zeit – aber wenn man ihm diese gibt, findet er seinen Weg. Mit mindestens einer Katze kommt er bereits gut klar, bei weiteren entscheidet vermutlich einfach die Chemie. Er ist kein Draufgänger, sondern ein stiller Beobachter, der Vertrauen langsam aufbaut. Für Nero wünschen wir uns ein ebenerdiges Zuhause, in dem er ohne viele Treppen leben darf, bei Menschen mit Geduld, Ruhe und einem sicheren Händchen. Spaziergänge, gemeinsames Erkunden seiner Umgebung und feste Strukturen helfen ihm, anzukommen. Er braucht keine Dauerbespaßung, sondern Menschen, die ihm Stabilität geben und ihm Zeit lassen, sich zu öffnen. Wer Nero adoptiert, bekommt keinen Hochglanz-Hund, sondern ein echtes Unikat: zottelig, charmant, ein bisschen eigen – und mit ganz viel Potenzial, ein treuer Begleiter zu werden. Ein kleiner Hund mit großen Gefühlen, der endlich ankommen möchte. Nero wartet auf Menschen, die nicht Perfektion suchen, sondern Persönlichkeit. .fusion-body .fusion-button Interesse an einer Adoption?

About Nero

What life with Nero looks like

Nero is a small young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Nordic Strays e.V. in Germany.

An young 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. 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 Nero, answered.

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