Ricky

Poodle · Male · Senior · 13 years

Aktuelles vom 17.4.2025: Ich durfte auf eine tolle Pflegestelle umziehen. Ich bin ein lieber kleiner Pudelmix und wurde vor 10 Jahren vom Tierheim schon einmal vermittelt. Nun ist leider mein geliebtes Herrchen verstorben und aus familiären Gründen musste ich nun zurück. Mein Herz ist quasi zweimal gebrochen. Einmal der Verlust meines Herrchen und der Verlust meines Zuhauses. Aber die Leute vom Tierheim übernehmen auch nach 10 Jahren noch Verantwortung und haben mir versprochen, dass sie für mich ein neues liebevolles Zuhause suchen. Und hier kommen Sie nun ins Spiel. Sie suchen bestimmt schon einen rüstigen Rentner wie mich. Ich bin unkompliziert. Mag nur nicht gerne Autofahren und alleine bleiben ist auch nicht so mein Ding. Ach ja, Katzen würde ich jagen. Aber das hält sie ja nicht ab, gell. Ich freue mich über Ihren Besuch.

About Ricky

What life with Ricky looks like

Ricky is a small senior poodle dog waiting at Tierheim Regensburg in Regensburg.

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 Ricky, answered.

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