Picko

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Senior · 9 years

Name: Picko. Breed: mixed breed. Born: approximately March 2017 – approximately 60 cm – approximately 36 kg – neutered Health: vaccinated, dewormed and microchipped Picko was likely abandoned and was found on a heavily trafficked road with only eight weeks of life in May 2017 by animal rescuers. Since March 2019, he has been living at Furever Land Shelter. As our shelter is closing definitively by the end of July 2023, Picko will lose his safe home within a few days. Therefore, Picko is desperately seeking a home or a foster home. Picko is very people-oriented and friendly, especially with children. However, he does not like cats and is really scared of older people with canes. He probably was chased away or hit by elderly people with a cane or broom. Picko is a very gentle dog who adapts extremely easily to new surroundings. He will make an excellent family member. Who will give Picko a chance???

Name: Picko. Rasse: Mischling. Geboren: ca. März 2017 – ca. 60 cm – ca. 36 kg – kastriert Gesundheit: geimpft, entwurmt und gechiptPicko wurde vermutlich ausgesetzt und wurde im Mai 2017 mit gerade mal acht Wochen auf einer viel befahrenen Straße gefunden und von Tierschützern gerettet. Seit März 2019 lebt er im Furever Land Shelter.Da das Furever Land Shelter jetzt Ende Juli 2023 endgültig geschlossen wird, wird Picko in wenigen Tagen sein sicheres Zuhause verlieren. Daher sucht Picko Pfötchen ringend ein Zuhause oder eine Pflegestelle.Picki ist sehr menschenbezogen und freundlich und er liebt vor allem Kinder. Nur Katzen mag er nicht und vor älteren Menschen mit Stock hat er richtig Angst. Vermutlich wurde er von alten Leuten mit einem Stock oder Besen verjagt oder geschlagen. Picko ist ein sehr sanftmütiger Hund und passt sich extrem leicht an eine neue Umgebung an. Er wird ein großartiges Familienmitglied sein.

About Picko

What life with Picko looks like

Picko is a large senior mixed breed dog waiting at Hundesuche Tiere in Not Bayern 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 Picko, answered.

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