How do I contact the shelter about Rodri?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Ein Freund fürs Leben e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Rodri on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Rodri if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Ein Freund fürs Leben 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 Rodri 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 Rodri 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 Ein Freund fürs Leben e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Rodri 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.

Rodri

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 4 years

♂, born ca. 8/2021 - affable - social in Spain Rodri is a ca. 8/2021 mixed-breed male dog with a shoulder height of ca. 40 cm. Rodri was found alone and abandoned in a commercial area in Spain, where many cars and trucks drive. In search of food and water, he wandered completely lost and disoriented, crossing frequently traveled streets. He was in great danger of being run over. Rodri was most likely abandoned and left to fend for himself. Since then, he has been eagerly waiting at our shelter for a loving and adequate home and a cozy warm dog bed, to live happily in security and well-being. The affable male dog is now searching for engaged people who have a lot of time for him, challenge and nurture him, teach him the dog ABC with patience and calm, ideally with regular visits to dog training classes, and integrate him into their daily lives, where Rodri finally experiences the affection, love, and care he has not had before. Rodri is compatible with fellow animals of both sexes. He would like and be able to live well with other social-compatible sovereign fellow animals, preferably of similar age and size, in a rehoming situation. For Rodri, a loving home with active people is sought, who have a lot of time for him, as well as a joy and pleasure in shared activities with him, and discover the world together with him, because he has probably not experienced much so far and is also not a couch potato. A quiet rural home and environment would be desirable and ideal for him. Cats and/or small pets should not be present in his future home. Rodri will be neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped upon rehoming. The blood test for Mediterranean diseases revealed a positive result for leishmaniasis. Treatment has begun. Rodri is particularly urgently searching for a quiet home where his immune system can stabilize and he can enjoy a carefree, beautiful dog life that he has not experienced before. He is currently at an animal shelter in Andalusia, Spain. The adoption fee for Rodri is 460 Euro. Would you like to give Rodri a home?

♂, geb. ca. 8/2021 liebenswert - aktiv - sozial in Spanien Rodri ist ein ca. 8/2021 geborener Mischlingsrüde mit einer Schulterhöhe von ca. 40 cm. Rodri wurde einsam und verlassen in einem Gewerbegebiet gefunden, in dem viele Autos und Lastwagen fuhren. Auf der Suche nach Futter und Wasser irrte er völlig verloren und desorientiert umher und überquerte ständig die frequentierten Straßen. Er befand sich in großer Gefahr, überfahren zu werden. Rodri wurde höchstwahrscheinlich ausgesetzt und sich selbst überlassen. Seither wartet er im Tierheim sehnlichst auf ein liebevolles adäquates Zuhause und ein gemütliches warmes Hundebettchen, um in Geborgenheit und Wohlbefinden, glücklich leben zu können. Der liebenswerte Rüde, sucht nun zu seinem endgültigen Glück, engagierte Menschen, die viel Zeit für ihn haben, ihn fordern und fördern, ihm das Hundeeinmaleins mit Ruhe und Geduld beibringen, bestenfalls verbunden mit regelmäßigen Besuchen in der Hundeschule und ihn aktiv in ihren Alltag integrieren, bei denen Rodri endlich die Zuneigung, Liebe und Fürsorge erfährt, die er bisher nicht hatte. Mit Artgenossen beiderlei Geschlechts ist Rodri bestens kompatibel. Er könnte gern und gut, zu weiteren sozialverträglichen souveränen Artgenossen, bestenfalls in ähnlichem Alter und ähnlicher Größe, vermittelt werden. Für Rodri wird ein liebevolles Zuhause bei aktiven Menschen gesucht, die viel Zeit für ihn besitzen, sowie Lust und Freude an gemeinsamen Aktivitäten mit ihm haben und zusammen mit ihm die Welt entdecken, denn er hat vermutlich bisher noch nicht viel kennengelernt und ist auch kein Couchpotato. Ein ruhiges ländliches Zuhause und Umfeld, wäre für ihn wünschenswert und ideal. Katzen und/oder Kleintiere sollten in seinem zukünftigen Zuhause nicht vorhanden sein. Rodri wird kastriert, geimpft und gechipt vermittelt. Die Blutuntersuchung auf Mittelmeerkrankheiten ergab einen positiven Befund auf Leishmaniose. Die Behandlung wurde begonnen. Rodri sucht besonders dringend ein ruhiges Zuhause, in dem sich sein Immunsystem stabilisieren und er ein unbeschwertes, schönes Hundeleben genießen kann, dass er bisher noch nicht erleben durfte. Er befindet sich in einem Tierheim in Andalusien/Spanien. Die Schutzgebühr für Rodri beträgt 460 Euro. Sie möchten Rodri ein Zuhause geben?

About Rodri

What life with Rodri looks like

Rodri is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Ein Freund fürs Leben e.V. in Berlin.

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. Animals leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with a valid EU pet passport. Adoption fees usually fall between €250 and €450, covering veterinary preparation.
