Nero

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 10 years

Nero is desperately seeking a homeNero is about 10 years old and roughly 50 cm tall. He spent his entire life as a beloved family member – but his life has suddenly and completely changed. His owner passed away, and the caretaker who took over after that had to be hospitalized. It was with heavy hearts that there was no other option but to bring Nero to this breed our shelter. There, he understandably struggles to adjust. For an older dog like him, this situation is particularly stressful, and the chance of finding a home seems almost hopeless. Nero misses the closeness to his people and does not understand why he is suddenly alone. He loves everything and everyone, but he does not like baby cats. What Nero needs now: A home or a loving foster home where he can feel like he belongs and where he can feel secure. He has always been a faithful companion – and should be allowed to continue being so. Since he has never been on a leash but has always accompanied his owner without a leash, this will now be practiced with him. Who would like to give Nero a second chance and show him that he is not alone? Contact:

About Nero

What life with Nero looks like

Nero is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at Hundesuche Tiere in Not Bayern 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 Nero, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Nero?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Hundesuche Tiere in Not Bayern 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 — Hundesuche Tiere in Not Bayern 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 Hundesuche Tiere in Not Bayern 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.
