Pino

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 7 years

Pino is a real good-natured dog. With his charming appearance he reminds of a mix between Corgi and Jack Russell Terrier - whether that's true we don't know, but one thing is certain: Pino is a very special guy. His way to us was sad. He was given up at the shelter because he destroyed things in his previous home. But who knows his story quickly understands the real reason: Pino had to spend many hours alone in the apartment every day. For a dog that needs human contact like him, this was just too much. Out of frustration, loneliness and boredom he looked for something to do - unfortunately at the expense of the furniture. At our place Pino shows his best side. He is friendly, cheerful, open-minded and uncomplicated in dealing with people. He enjoys every attention, loves joint walks and really flourishes when he can spend time with his humans. For Pino we wish a quiet home without small children where he finally belongs. A big, turbulent family would probably not be for him. Instead he dreams of people who like to be outdoors, give him security and don't leave him alone every day for hours. Who gives Pino this chance wins a loyal companion with a lot of charm, joie de vivre and a big heart. For him a loving home with time, affection and joint adventures would be a real jackpot - and maybe just as much so for his new humans.

Rasse: Mischling Geschlecht: männlich, kastriert Geburtsdatum: 24.09.2019 Beschreibung: Pino ist ein echter Gute-Laune-Hund. Mit seinem charmanten Aussehen erinnert er an eine Mischung aus Corgi und Jack Russell Terrier – ob das wirklich stimmt, wissen wir zwar nicht, aber eines ist sicher: Pino ist ein ganz besonderer Kerl. Sein Weg zu uns war traurig. Er wurde im Tierheim abgegeben, weil er in seinem bisherigen Zuhause immer wieder Dinge zerstört hat. Doch wer seine Geschichte kennt, versteht schnell den wahren Grund: Pino musste täglich viele Stunden alleine in der Wohnung verbringen. Für einen menschenbezogenen Hund wie ihn war das einfach zu viel. Aus Frust, Einsamkeit und Langeweile suchte er sich eine Beschäftigung – leider auf Kosten der Einrichtung. Bei uns zeigt sich Pino von seiner allerbesten Seite. Er ist freundlich, fröhlich, aufgeschlossen und unkompliziert im Umgang. Er genießt jede Aufmerksamkeit, liebt gemeinsame Spaziergänge und blüht richtig auf, wenn er Zeit mit seinen Menschen verbringen darf. Für Pino wünschen wir uns ein ruhiges Zuhause ohne kleine Kinder, in dem er endlich dazugehören darf. Eine große, turbulente Familie wäre vermutlich nichts für ihn. Dafür träumt er von Menschen, die gerne draußen unterwegs sind, ihm Geborgenheit schenken und ihn nicht täglich stundenlang alleine lassen müssen. Wer Pino diese Chance gibt, gewinnt einen treuen Begleiter mit viel Charme, Lebensfreude und einem großen Herzen. Für ihn wäre ein liebevolles Zuhause mit Zeit, Zuneigung und gemeinsamen Abenteuern ein echter Sechser im Lotto – und für seine neuen Menschen vielleicht ebenso.

About Pino

What life with Pino looks like

Pino is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein Wunsiedel 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. Animals leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with a valid EU pet passport. Adoption fees usually fall between €250 and €450, covering veterinary preparation.

Frequently asked

Adopting Pino, answered.

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