How do I contact the shelter about Pacco sucht Paten?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Schkortitz handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Pacco sucht Paten on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Pacco sucht Paten if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Schkortitz 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 Pacco sucht Paten 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 Pacco sucht Paten 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 Tierheim Schkortitz early rather than rehoming privately; they know Pacco sucht Paten 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.

Pacco sucht Paten

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 22 years

Our Pacco, taken over from a friendly association, thanks his godparents: the previous association, Private Animal Aid Saxony e.V., and the new godparents, Mrs. C. from Großbardau and Mr. H. from Trehna, who previously financially supported our Chica! Thanks to you, Pacco can now finally stay in his foster home and we can hopefully balance out some of our expenses... Pacco is happy to have more godparents, the foster home and us... because Pacco is already troubled by several mites, which are unfortunately expensive... ... I am male, neutered and born on May 11, 2004. I have been waiting for a new home since June 2016. I am about 65 cm tall. This is what my caregivers say about me: Pacco came to us through an indirect way and is a purebred Hovawart with papers. His previous owners planned a move, which did not include Pacco. An euthanasia day was already set, as the move was more important than the loyal, but now aged family member. A friendly association found out and moved all possible efforts to help Pacco. Unfortunately, no suitable place was found through the breeders and the breed rescue. One of our members started the attempt and took Pacco home. After some initial difficulties, the coexistence is now going quite well, Pacco is stabilizing and is getting along well in the new daily life.

Unser Pacco, Übernahme eines befreundeten Vereines, bedankt sich bei seinen Paten : dem Vorgängerverein die Private Tierhilfe Sachsen e.V. und den neuen Paten Frau C. aus Großbardau und Herrn H. aus Trehna, welche vorher unsere Chica finanziell unterstützten! Dank Euch kann Pacco nun endgültig in seiner Pflegestelle bleiben und wir können hoffentlich unsere schon getätigten Ausgaben ein wenig ausgleichen…..über weitere Paten freut sich Pacco, die Pflegestelle und wir….denn Pacco wird schon von einigen Zipperlein geplagt, die leider teuer sind….. …………………………………………………………………….. Ich bin männlich, kastriert und am 11.05.2004 geboren. Ich warte seit Juni 2016 auf ein neues Zuhause. Ich bin circa 65 cm groß. Das sagen meine Betreuer über mich: Pacco ist auf Umwegen bei uns gelandet und ist ein reinrassiger Hovawart mit Papieren. Seine Vorbesitzer planten einen Umzug, bei dem Pacco nicht mit einkalkuliert wurde. Ein Euthanasietag stand schon fest, schließlich war der Umzug wichtiger als das treue, aber inzwischen gealterte Familienmitglied. Ein befreundeter Verein bekam Wind und setzte alle Hebel in Bewegung, Pacco zu helfen. Über die Züchter und die Rassenothilfe fand sich leider kein geeigneter Platz. Eines unserer Mitglieder startete den Versuch und holte Pacco zu sich. Nach einigen Startschwierigkeiten klappt nun das Zusammenleben recht gut, Pacco stabilisiert sich und kommt im neuen Alltag gut zurecht. Bis zur endgültigen

About Pacco sucht Paten

What life with Pacco sucht Paten looks like

Pacco sucht Paten is a small senior mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Schkortitz in Grimma.

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.

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.
