Ricco (m)

Mixed Breed · Male

Here we introduce Ricco, born on 12.09.20 and about 53 cm tall. He is typically a young puppy, lively, playful, and by no means shy. He is a friendly, eager, and people-oriented young male dog, currently in his full-fledged puppyhood, but that will change. He was brought to the shelter with many other dogs and has grown up here, now seeking people who can show him the big, wide world and take him by the paw. Dog experience, dog training classes, long walks, and subsequent cuddle rounds on the couch are also on his wish list. A second dog would be great for playing, but not a must. Ricco still has a lot to learn, but one thing he can certainly do well is wrap his favorite person around his paw. Do YOU want to be his favorite person??? Ricco could soon leave the shelter life and make a family happy. Who falls in love with the cool guy? Who has a desire for agility or another dog sport? Ricco would surely enjoy it. He has no testicles, so a placement in Switzerland is unfortunately not possible. Ricco leaves Romania neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, dewormed, and with a Mediterranean test and EU passport. All our dogs come to Nuremberg and want to be picked up here. This is a young, adolescent dog.

Hier stellen wir euch Ricco vor, geb.12.09.20 und um die 53 cm groß. Er ist junghund- typisch lustig, verspielt und keineswegs schüchtern. Er ist ein freundlicher, offerner und menschenbezogener junger Rüde, momentan voll im Flegelalter, aber das wird sich wieder geben. Er wurde mit vielen anderen Hunden ins Shelter gebracht und ist hier aufgewachsen, sucht jetzt also Menschen , die ihm die große, weite Welt zeigen und ihn an der Pfote nehmen. Hundeerfahrung, Hundeschule, lange Gassigänge und anschliessende Kuschelrunden auf der Couch stehen auch auf seinem Wunschzettel, ein Zweithund wäre toll zum Spielen, aber kein Muss. Ricco muss sicher noch viel lernen, aber eines kann er sicherlich bestens, seinen Lieblingsmenschen um die Pfote wickeln. Willst DU sein Lieblingsmensch werden??? Ricco könnte schon bald das Shelterleben hinter sich lassen und eine Familie glücklich machen. Wer verliebt sich in den tollen Kerl? Wer hat Lust zu Agility oder anderem Hundesport? Ricco würde sicher Freude daran haben. Er hat keine Rute, deswegen ist eine VErmittlung in die Schweiz leider nicht möglich. Ricco verläßt Rumänien kastriert, geimpft, gechipt, entwurmt und mit Mittelmeertest und EU-Pass. Alle unsere Hunde kommen in Nürnberg an und wollen auch hier abgeholt werden.

About Ricco (m)

What life with Ricco (m) looks like

Ricco (m) is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tiernothilfe Casa Katharina e.V. in Nürnberg.

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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Ricco (m), answered.

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