Rocky

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 8 years

Rocky Mixed breed Male Approx. 50 cm Age: 15.05.2018 Weight: Approx. 18 kg Child-friendly: Yes, larger children Compatible with other dogs: Yes Compatible with cats: Needs testing Neutered: Yes Veterinarian's information: Microchip, vaccinated, dewormed, EU passport, Mediterranean test: negative Notes: Amigos dos Animais de Campo Maior Current location: Spain Adoption fee: €600 incl. transport Last update: July 2025 Rocky was a puppy at the shelter. He was adopted by a family in 2021. Rocky did not have a good life there, he lived alone on a terrace or in a large garden. He had no contact with the outside world. Rocky was left to himself. This is not a nice dog life. When the shelter found out, they brought Rocky back to the shelter, and since April 2025 he has been back. Rocky has a lot of energy and loves going for walks, he enjoys spending time outdoors, sniffing everything and discovering the world. He should definitely be in an active family, preferably with older children. Rocky knows the children and loves people. Rocky needs daily walks and exercise, perhaps dog sports would also be an alternative to exhaust him. A house with a garden would be very nice, where he can romp, play and run or just find a place to chill. Application at www.pfotenhilfe-sachsen.de

Name: Rocky Rasse: Mischling Geschlecht: männlich Größe: ca. 50 cm Alter: 15.05.2018 Gewicht: ca. 18 kg Kinderfreundlich: Ja, größere verträglich mit Artgenossen: Ja verträglich mit Katzen: muss getestet werden Kastriert: ja Information des Tierarztes: gechipt, geimpft, entwurmt, EU-Pass Mittelmeertest: negativ Bemerkungen: Amigos dos Animais de Campo Maior Derzeitiger Aufenthaltsort: Spanien Schutzgebühr: 600 Euro inkl. Transport letztes Update: Juli 2025 Rocky war als Welpe im Tierheim. Er wurde 2021 von einer Familie adoptiert. Rocky hatte es nicht gut dort, er lebte ganz allein auf einer Terrasse oder in einem großen Garten. Er hatte kein Kontakt zur Außenwelt. Rocky wurde sich selbst überlassen. Das ist kein schönes Hundeleben. Als das Tierheim davon erfuhr, holten sie Rocky zurück ins Tierheim, seitdem ist er seit April 2025 zurück. Rocky hat viel Energie und liebt es spazieren zu gehen, er genießt die Zeit draußen, alles abzuschürfen und die Welt zu entdecken. Er sollte auf alle Fälle in eine aktive Familie gern mit größeren Kindern. Die kennt Rocky und er liebt die Menschen. Rocky braucht tägliche Spaziergänge und Auslauf vielleicht wäre auch Hundesport eine Alternative, um ihn auszupowern. Sehr schön wäre ein Haus mit Garten, da kann er toben, spielen und rennen oder auch nur einfach irgendwo ein Plätzchen zum Chillen. Bewerbung unter www.pfotenhilfe-sachsen.de

About Rocky

What life with Rocky looks like

Rocky is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Notfellchen Rumänien e.V. in Germany.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 Rocky, answered.

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