Patrocle

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 13 years

Patrocle is a 12-13 year old mixed breed male dog from Romania who has been living in a Romanian animal shelter for some time. He is approximately 30-35cm tall and is looking for a forever home. The shelter staff describe Patrocle as a very loving and friendly dog who gets along well with other dogs and cats (see photos). He has a hunting instinct, but this has not been confirmed in the shelter. If he knows people well, he likes to stick close to them, but he is initially shy around strangers. Would you like to give the lovable old dog Patrocle a chance at a forever home? He is microchipped, vaccinated, dewormed, and neutered.

About Patrocle

What life with Patrocle looks like

Patrocle is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at Casa Animalis 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 Patrocle, answered.

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