OTTO 2

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 2 years

For the rough diamond OTTO, life is turning for the better. He was able to leave the mini-kennel with his mother and sister and travel to us at Casa. The handsome, black OTTO has known nothing in his past except for his mini-kennel. He seems to have only had human contact with his caregiver and is therefore reserved around people. He can take treats from familiar two-legged people, but he still finds the hand and thus petting to be creepy and retreats. OTTO gets along great with his own kind, whether male or female, small or large. That's why a confident first dog should be in his new home, where the sensitive boy can orient himself. We are looking for a loving and reliable home for OTTO, which has the necessary time and understanding for a dog from abroad. He needs people who already have experience with reserved dogs and live in a quiet, low-stimulation environment in the countryside. A securely fenced garden should be available. OTTO's socialization is currently being worked on. His handler Iris Lücke is looking forward to your inquiry at 98 or by email to i. luecke-animale. de. You can also apply directly through our self-disclosure, which you can find here: www. casa-animale. de/vermittlung/selbstauskunft (copy the link and paste it in a new window). OTTO will be neutered, vaccinated, dewormed, and chipped with an EU pet passport after a positive pre-check for a deposit fee of 550.00. A 4DX Snap test for Mediterranean diseases was performed before departure. OTTO will not be kept in a kennel or outdoor enclosure.

Für den Rohdiamanten OTTO wendet sich das Leben zum Guten. So konnte er mit seiner Mutter und seiner Schwester den Mini-Zwinger verlassen und zu uns auf die Casa reisen. Der hübsche, lackschwarze OTTO hat in seiner Vergangenheit nichts kennengelernt bis auf seinen Mini-Zwinger. Menschlichen Kontakt hatte er scheinbar nur zu seiner Betreuerin und ist dementsprechend zurückhaltend bei den Menschen. Leckerli kann er bei bekannten Zweibeinern aus der Hand nehmen, aber die Hand und somit Streicheln findet er noch gruselig und tritt den Rückzug an. Mit seinen Artgenossen versteht sich OTTO prima, egal ob Männlein oder Weiblein, klein oder groß. Deshalb sollte in seinem neuen Zuhause ein souveräner Ersthund vorhanden sein, an dem sich der sensible Bub orientieren kann. Für OTTO suchen wir ein liebevolles und zuverlässiges Zuhause, welches die nötige Zeit und Verständnis für einen Hund aus dem Ausland hat. Er braucht Menschen, die bereits Erfahrung mit zurückhaltenden Hunden haben und in einer ruhigen, reizarmen Umgebung auf dem Land leben. Ein sicher eingezäunter Garten sollte vorhanden sein. Zur Zeit wird an OTTOs Sozialisierung gearbeitet. Seine Vermittlerin Iris Lücke freut sich auf Ihre Anfrage unter 98 oder per Email an i. luecke-animale. de. Bewerben können Sie sich auch direkt über unsere Selbstauskunft, die Sie hier finden: www. casa-animale. de/vermittlung/selbstauskunft (Link kopieren und in neuem Fenster einfügen). OTTO wird kastriert, geimpft, entwurmt und gechipt mit einem EU-Heimtierpass nach positiver Vorkontrolle gegen Schutzgebühr in Höhe von 550,00 vermittelt. Ein 4DX Snap Test auf Mittelmeerkrankheiten wurde vor Ausreise durchgeführt. In Zwinger- oder Außenhaltung wird OTTO nicht abgegeben.

About OTTO 2

What life with OTTO 2 looks like

OTTO 2 is a very small young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Casa Animale e.V. in Gefrees.

A 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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting OTTO 2, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about OTTO 2?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Casa Animale e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw OTTO 2 on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt OTTO 2 if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Casa Animale 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is OTTO 2 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 OTTO 2 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 Animale e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know OTTO 2 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.
