Rocky

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Adult · 5 years

Hello, I am Rocky! Unfortunately, my very best friend Rambo has passed on… now I spend my days alone and it's terribly boring! I am 5 years old and very friendly, I usually come right out of my house when a human passes by. When my owner visits, I like to run directly to her hand and then around her shoulders. I do the same with people I trust. Unfortunately, I lack "socks" on my feet. After a successful mushroom treatment three years ago, my hair has unfortunately not grown back there. But that doesn't bother me, then I just run around barefoot. Reluctantly, I must now start a new adventure and leave my owner behind. For the rest of my life, I definitely do not want to spend it alone!

Hallo, ich bin Rocky! Leider ist mein allerbester Freund Rambo von uns gegangen… nun verbringe ich meine Tage alleine und mir ist schrecklich langweilig! Ich bin 5 Jahre alt und sehr zutraulich, ich komme eigentlich immer direkt aus meinem Häuschen, wenn ein Menschenwesen vorbei schaut. Wenn meine Besitzerin mich besucht, laufe ich gerne direkt auf ihre Hand und dann auf ihren Schultern herum. Das mache ich aber auch bei Menschen, zu denen ich Vertrauen gefasst habe. Leider fehlen mir die „Socken“ an den Füßen. Nach einer erfolgreichen Pilzbehandlung vor 3 Jahren sind meine Haare dort leider nicht mehr nachgewachsen. Aber das stört mich nicht, dann laufe ich eben barfuß durchs Leben. Schweren Herzens muss ich mich jetzt leider auf ein neues Abenteuer einlassen und meine Besitzerin zurücklassen.Denn den Rest meines Lebens möchte ich auf keinen Fall alleine verbringen!

About Rocky

What life with Rocky looks like

Rocky is a adult mixed breed animal waiting at Deguhilfe Süd e.V. in Obermichelbach.

Every animal has their own temperament and history. The shelter knows Rocky far better than any listing can convey — ask about daily routine, ideal household, and what kind of adopter they're hoping for.

🇩🇪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 Rocky, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Rocky?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Deguhilfe Süd 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 — Deguhilfe Süd 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 Rocky already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most animals 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 Deguhilfe Süd 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.
