Pado

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

Pado, born approximately October 2021, neutered, approximately 65 cm shoulder height, in the shelter since February 2022. Pado came to Maria's shelter as a puppy. Several years have passed, and the small, shaggy puppy has grown into an impressive male. He is a very friendly and affectionate dog who currently lives with Maria outside the shelter because he cannot tolerate the kennel. He is social with people and other dogs, as well as goats. Unfortunately, he was recently bitten by the herding dogs of the nearby shepherds and has suffered some wounds. Pado urgently needs a place to escape the shelter stress and the ongoing danger of the herding dogs. Who will finally give him this chance? Pado is at least partly a herding dog and could therefore show corresponding characteristics in a home. Therefore, we are looking for him an ideally rural home with its own garden and people who know and appreciate herding dogs. Currently located in Romania and allowed to travel if a home is found. Travels chipped and vaccinated (EU vaccination passport; vaccinations: rabies and basic immunization). All dogs are treated against intestinal parasites and ectoparasites at their arrival in the shelter and at least once a year thereafter. The described behavioral observations are based on everyday life in the shelter and may be different in a domestic environment under changed living conditions. The transport (registered with Traces) will be organized and carried out by us, as far as legally possible for the destination country. Please note the information on this page.

05/2025 Pado, geboren ca. 10/2021, kastriert, ca. 65 cm Schulterhöhe, im Shelter seit 02/2022 Pado kam als Welpe in Marias Shelter. Dies ist nun mehrere Jahre her und aus dem kleinen strubbeligen Welpen ist ein beeindruckender Rüde geworden. Er ist ein sehr freundlicher und verschmuster Hund, der momentan bei Maria vor dem Shelter lebt, denn im Zwinger hält er es nicht aus. Er ist sozial mit Menschen und anderen Hunden, sowie Ziegen. Leider wurde er kürzlich von den Herdenschutzhunden der sich in der Nähe aufhaltenden Schäfer gebissen und hat einige Wunden davongetragen. Pado braucht dringend einen Platz an dem der dem Shelterstress und der andauernden Gefahr der Herdenschutzhunde entfliehen kann. Wer gibt ihm endlich diese Chance? Pado ist mindestens zum Teil ein Herdenschutzhund und könnte daher in einem Zuhause entsprechende Eigenschaften zeigen. Daher wünschen wir uns für ihn ein optimalerweise ländlich gelegenes Zuhause mit eigenem Garten und Menschen, die Herdenschutzhunde kennen und deren Eigenschaften zu schätzen wissen. Befindet sich aktuell in Rumänien und darf ausreisen, wenn er ein Zuhause gefunden hat. Reist gechipt und geimpft (EU Impfpass; Impfungen: Tollwut und Grundimmunisierung). Alle Hunde werden bei ihrer Ankunft im Shelter sowie anschließend mindestens einmal jährlich gegen Darmparasiten und Ektoparasiten behandelt. Die geschilderten Verhaltensbeobachtungen basieren auf dem Alltag im Shelter und können sich in einem häuslichen Umfeld unter veränderten Lebensbedingungen entsprechend anders darstellen. Der Transport (angemeldet mit Traces) wird von uns, so weit es für das Bestimmungsland rechtlich möglich ist, organisiert und durchgeführt. Bitte beachten Sie die Informationen auf dieser Seite:

About Pado

What life with Pado looks like

Pado is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Hope for Future e.V. in Germany.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 Pado, answered.

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