RicoRasse

Male · Adult · 4 years

Rico is a still young Kangal, weighing in at over 45 kg! Name: Rico. Breed: Kangal. Gender: male Birth year: 2021Rico is a still young Kangal and must be guided in the right direction now. Later, the male dog will weigh up to 80 kg and should be on a leash and socially compatible with humans and animals. For this huge task, experimentation should not be done, but a herding dog with experience should show its skills. Rico gets along with other dogs by sympathy, provided he has the opportunity to get to know them slowly. However, contact with other dogs quickly overloads him, and a game can turn into a fight and develop into a confrontation. He does not know cats. Currently, he shows himself to be very friendly towards strangers, but whether this continues lies in the hands of the new owners. Contact: Kreistierheim Schwarzwald-Baar-Kreis Email: info(at)animal-shelter-donaueschingen. Walks well on a leash.

Rico ist ein noch junger Kangal, der jedoch schon über 45 kg auf die Waage bringt! Name: Rico. Rasse: Kangal. Geschlecht: männlich Geburtsjahr: 09.2021Rico ist ein noch junger Kangal, und unbedingt jetzt in die richtige Richtung gelenkt werden muss. Später wird der Rüde gut 80 kg auf die Waage bringen und sollte Leinenführig sowie sozialverträglich mit Mensch und Tier sein. Bei dieser riesen Aufgabe, sollte nicht experimentiert werden, sondern ein bereits Herdenschutzhund erfahrener Hundehalter seine Kompetenzen wirken lassen.Mit anderen Hunden verträgt er sich nach Sympathie, wenn er Gelegenheit bekommt, sie langsam kennenzulernen. Der Kontakt zu anderen Hunden überfordert ihn jedoch schnell, dann kann es passieren, dass ein Spiel kippt und sich zu einer Auseinandersetzung entwickelt.Katzen kennt er nicht. Aktuell zeigt er sich fremden Menschen gegenüber noch sehr freundlich, ob dies so bleibt, liegt in den Händen der neuen Halter.Kontakt:Kreistierheim Schwarzwald-Baar-KreisMail: info(at)tierheim-donaueschingen.dezurück nach

About RicoRasse

What life with RicoRasse looks like

RicoRasse is a adult dog waiting at Herdenschutzhund-Service e. V. in Pattensen.

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 RicoRasse, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about RicoRasse?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Herdenschutzhund-Service e. V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw RicoRasse on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt RicoRasse if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Herdenschutzhund-Service 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is RicoRasse 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 RicoRasse 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 Herdenschutzhund-Service e. V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know RicoRasse 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.
