Rick *2017 – Pflegestelle oder Zuhause gesucht

Mixed Breed · Female

Country of Origin: Romania Breed: mixed breed Gender: male Color: light brown Shoulder height: approx. 35 cmDate of Birth: approx. 2017Location: Romania Special Feature: healed wound on the back Update March 2026: Some dogs do not stand in the spotlight. They do not push forward, do not jump to the fence, and do not demand attention. They simply stand still, a bit in the background – like this shy male. When we visited him, he initially avoided us. He was cautious, a little shy, and preferred to keep his distance. We therefore did not pressure him and gave him the time and space he needed. But it becomes clear quickly that there is more to him. With his primary caregiver, he shows a completely different side. With her, he is calm, fine, and even lets himself be petted. Then one sees that he can also allow closeness – when he feels safe. It is as if he simply does not dare to trust new people. Maybe he has never learned that people can also be good. Just such quiet, sensitive dogs often go unnoticed in the shelter routine. They wait quietly, day after day, without being seen. We hope so much that somewhere out there is a person who discovers him exactly. Someone with patience, heart, and understanding for a cautious dog who simply needs time. Because he also deserves a chance – the chance to finally arrive and learn that life has more to offer than just waiting. ————- Update October 2024: He is still a bit shy, he avoided us. We did not pressure him either. ———– Update April 2024: The little RICK has moved into the VetHouse. He is currently only approachable by his primary caregiver and shows aggression and bites towards other people. ———— Rick has always shown himself to be a lively little fellow. Unfortunately, he has become more reserved due to his insecure kennel mate. Despite everything, he has let us pet him well and continued to take treats from our hand. Contact: Our dogs are vaccinated (rabies and 2x basic immunization), microchipped, and equipped with the EU pet passport at our expense (we cover the lab fees) tested for common Mediterranean diseases: Babesiosis, Ehrlichiosis, leishmaniasis, rickettsiae, filariasis, hepatozoonosis, anaplasmosis.

Herkunftsland: Rumänien Rasse: Mischling Geschlecht: männlich Farbe: hellbraun Schulterhöhe: ca. 35 cmGeburtsdatum: ca. 2017Standort: Rumänien Besonderheit: verheilte Wunde am hinteren Rücken Unser lieber Rick sucht sein Glück Als wir den Kennel betraten, konnten wir unseren Augen kaum trauen. Da stand er – unser Rick. Doch etwas war anders. Der einst so ängstliche Rüde hatte einen riesigen Schritt nach vorne gemacht. Zum ersten Mal ließ er sich streicheln und suchte sogar vorsichtig die Nähe zum Menschen. Was für eine wunderbare Entwicklung! Noch kann Rick die Berührungen nicht ganz entspannt genießen, dafür fehlt ihm einfach noch etwas Vertrauen und die Erfahrung, dass Menschen es gut mit ihm meinen. Aber man spürt ganz deutlich: Er möchte lernen. In einem liebevollen, geduldigen Zuhause wird er mit Sicherheit schnell weitere Fortschritte machen und zeigen, was für ein toller Hund in ihm steckt.Mit seiner Kennelgenossin versteht sich Rick hervorragend. Er zeigt sich absolut verträglich und sozial im Umgang mit anderen Hunden. Ein souveräner Hundekumpel an seiner Seite könnte ihm den Start in sein neues Leben sogar noch erleichtern. Rick braucht Menschen mit Herz, Geduld und Verständnis, die ihm die Zeit geben, in seinem eigenen Tempo anzukommen. Menschen, die sich über kleine Fortschritte freuen und ihm zeigen, wie schön ein Hundeleben sein kann. Wer schenkt diesem wunderbaren Rüden die Chance, die er so sehr verdient hat? Wer hat ein warmes Körbchen, ein liebevolles Zuhause und einen Platz im Herzen für Rick frei?Rick wartet sehnsüchtig auf seine Menschen. Kontakt: Unsere Hunde sind geimpft (Tollwut und 2x Grundimmunisierung) sind gechippt und mit dem EU-Heimtierausweis ausgestattet werden auf unsere Kosten (wir übernehmen die Labor-Gebühren) auf die gängigen Mittelmeerkrankheiten getestet: Babesiose, Ehrlichiose, Leishmaniose, Rickettsien, Filarien, Hepatozoonose, Anaplasmose werden nur nach positiver Vorkontrolle (Hausbesuch) gegen eine Schutzgebühr mit Schutzvertrag vermittelt.
