Nino

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 9 years

Hallo, ich bin Nino! Ich bin ein 9-jähriger, kastrierter American Staffordshire Terrier und bin schon so lange auf der Suche nach meinem Zuhause für immer. Ich wurde leider schlecht gehalten und kam stark unterernährt ins Tierheim. Trotzdem habe ich mir mein großes Herz für „meine Menschen“ bewahrt. Wenn ich jemanden erst einmal kenne und Vertrauen gefasst habe, bin ich unglaublich loyal und treu. Meine Patin bedeutet mir sehr viel – ich freue mich jedes Mal riesig, wenn sie mich zu unseren Ausflügen abholt. In ruhigen Momenten genieße ich Nähe sehr und kann richtig verschmust sein. Fremden gegenüber bin ich allerdings zunächst misstrauisch. Ich brauche Zeit, um neue Menschen kennenzulernen, und manche Situationen verunsichern mich schnell. Deshalb wünsche ich mir souveräne Menschen, die mir Sicherheit und Orientierung geben können. Rassetypisch habe ich einen gewissen Beschützerinstinkt. Die Grundkommandos beherrsche ich gut und gemeinsam mit meiner Patin arbeite ich in der Hundeschule fleißig weiter an Themen wie Leinenführigkeit, Hundebegegnungen und Bewegungsreizen. Ich liebe es, körperlich und geistig beschäftigt zu werden. Besonders Nasenarbeit und das Arbeiten mit dem Futterbeutel machen mir richtig Spaß. Außerdem bin ich sehr verspielt und im Sommer plansche ich auch gerne mal im Wasser. Typisch Terrier bringe ich ordentlich Energie und Jagdtrieb mit und gehe Konflikten auch nicht unbedingt aus dem Weg. Deshalb suche ich ein hundeerfahrenes Zuhause ohne Kinder und andere Tiere. Wer mir mit Geduld, Verständnis und klarer Führung begegnet, bekommt einen treuen Begleiter an die Seite, der seine Menschen von ganzem Herzen liebt.Euer Nino

About Nino

What life with Nino looks like

Nino is an extra-large senior mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein Goslar 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 Nino, answered.

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