Pirlo

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 6 years

Hello, I am Pirlo, together with a few other dogs, we recently traveled from Romania here. Now I am on the lookout for a new home. Actually, I had my human picked out already. However, she says she can't take me because she already has two dogs. What a mean thing to do! I do try my best. At first, I am rather shy and tend to keep to myself. But once I get to know the people, I am very cuddly and never leave my primary caregiver's side. I don't necessarily need other dogs, I just want my people all to myself. While I get along with the dogs, if they are too wild, they scare me and I will always retreat. I definitely need people who can give me the security I need. So far, I tend to be more reserved and unsure in new situations. Therefore, my new home should be a quiet household. Small children should not live there as they would be too active and restless for me. A visit to dog training classes would be great for me, so I can catch up on everything I've missed and maybe make a few doggy friends. So, out there, if you're looking for a loyal and quiet companion, please contact my foster parents quickly. I will be waiting here and looking forward to your visit.

Hallo, ich bin der Pirlo, zusammen mit einigen anderen Hunden bin ich vor kurzem aus Rumänien hierhergereist. Nun bin ich auf der Suche nach einem neuen Zuhause. Eigentlich habe ich mir mein Frauchen schon ausgesucht. Allerdings sagt sie, sie kann mich leider nicht nehmen, da sie schon zwei Hunde hat. So eine Gemeinheit! Dabei gebe ich mir so eine Mühe. Anfangs bin ich eher schüchtern und ziehe mich etwas zurück. Wenn ich die Menschen aber kennengelernt habe, bin ich ganz verschmust und weiche meiner Bezugsperson nicht mehr von der Seite. Andere Hunde brauche ich nicht unbedingt, ich möchte meine Menschen ganz für mich haben. Zwar verstehe ich mich mit den Hunden, aber wenn diese zu wild sind, machen sie mir etwas Angst und ich würde mich dann immer zurückziehen. Ich brauche auf jeden Fall Menschen, die mir die nötige Sicherheit geben, die ich brauche. Bisher zeige ich mich eher zurückhaltend und unsicher in neuen Situationen. Mein neues Zuhause sollte daher ein ruhiger Haushalt sein. Kleine Kinder sollten nicht da wohnen. Die wären mir viel zu unruhig und aktiv. Der Besuch einer Hundeschule wäre toll für mich, damit ich alles bisher Versäumte aufholen kann und vielleicht ein paar Hundefreunde finden. Also da draußen, wer einen treuen und ruhigen Begleiter sucht. meldet sich bitte schnell bei meinen Pflegern. Ich warte hier so lange und freu mich auf Euren Besuch. Bis bald, Euer Pirlo

About Pirlo

What life with Pirlo looks like

Pirlo is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim u. Tierschutzverein Kreis Ahrweiler e.V. / Tierheim Remagen. in Remagen.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. 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 Pirlo, answered.

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