Rocco – im Mai 2021 platziert

Mixed Breed · Unknown

Rocco will be given back to another dog named Brownie after one and a half years because the family is moving. They had taken the dogs in as vacation dogs, but Rocco and Brownie were never picked up again. Unfortunately, it turned out later that when they were in the house, the two had to be tied on a chain for the entire time. Rocco’s fur care was completely neglected. It was matted, so we had to shear him completely. Rocco has a funny character. He is very friendly, interested in everything, and people-oriented. He gets along well with other animals; he finds the cats he knows nice and also likes children. But also he, like his buddy Brownie, needs patience, understanding, and dog-experienced people who can attend the dog training classes with him so that he can learn the dog ABCs. He would be great as a second dog, and it could also be his buddy Brownie. Rocco is vaccinated, microchipped, and up for rehoming. If you are interested in our dogs and would like to meet them informally, please apply using the button below, and we will get in touch with you as soon as possible. We appreciate your understanding if the processing of your request takes a little longer. We do our best to give a response as soon as possible. However, it may happen that we receive many inquiries at once or that our resources are temporarily urgently needed elsewhere. This animal was surrendered to the shelter.

DE·Show original

Rocco wird mit einem anderen Hund namens Brownie nach eineinhalb Jahren abgegeben, weil die Familie umzieht. Diese hatten die Hunde damals als Ferienhunde betreut, Rocco und Brownie seien aber nie wieder abgeholt worden. Leider stellte sich später heraus, dass die beiden, wenn sie im Haus waren, die Zeit an einer Kette angebunden verbringen mussten. Die Fellpflege bei Rocco wurde völlig vernachlässigt. Es war verfilzt, sodass wir ihn komplett scheren mussten. Rocco hat einen lustigen Charakter. Er ist sehr freundlich, an allem interessiert und menschenbezogen. Mit Artgenossen versteht er sich gut, Katzen die er kennt findet er nett und er mag auch Kinder. Aber auch er, wie sein Kumpel Brownie, braucht Geduld, Verständnis und hundeerfahrene Menschen, die mit ihm die Hundeschule besuchen, sodass er das Hunde ABC lernen kann. Gerne als Zweithund, es darf auch gerne sein Kumpel Brownie sein. Rocco wird geimpft, gechippt, mit Schutzvertrag und gegen eine Schutzgebühr von CHF 600.– vermittelt. Falls Sie Interesse an unseren Hunden haben und sie unverbindlich kennenlernen möchten, bewerben Sie sich mit untenstehenden Button und wir werden uns baldmöglichst mit Ihnen in Verbindung setzen. Wir danken für Ihr Verständnis, falls die Bearbeitung Ihrer Anfrage etwas länger dauert. Wir setzen alles daran, so bald wie möglich eine Rückmeldung zu geben. Es kann aber vorkommen, dass sehr viele Anfragen zusammenkommen oder dass unsere Ressourcen temporär dringend anderweitig gebraucht werden.

Frequently asked

Adopting Rocco – im Mai 2021 platziert, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Rocco – im Mai 2021 platziert?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutzbund Basel Regional handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Rocco – im Mai 2021 platziert on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Rocco – im Mai 2021 platziert if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutzbund Basel Regional 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 Rocco – im Mai 2021 platziert 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 Rocco – im Mai 2021 platziert 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 Tierschutzbund Basel Regional early rather than rehoming privately; they know Rocco – im Mai 2021 platziert 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.
