Adopt Rodri

Mixed Breed · Unknown

Rodri – one among thousands… and yet a very special treasure. Rodri belongs to the countless Podencos that fall victim to hunting in Spain every year. These lovable dogs are used in masses and then discarded when they are no longer needed. Podencos are very intelligent and friendly dogs, who have an incredible amount of love to give once you earn their trust. Rodri carries this love within and wishes so much to become part of a loving family. Finally, the priest of the church Alberto sought help, who brought the little Rodri to the animal shelter. For Rodri, this is now the chance to finally be seen. Yes, Podencos are found in Spain like sand on the beach – but there is only one Rodri and we wish for him to find his own family, for whom he is absolutely unique. Rodri shows at the animal shelter that he is a truly loving and cuddly fellow who enjoys being close to his caregivers and seeking cuddles. We are sure that his future family will be very happy with him.

Rodri – einer unter tausenden… und trotzdem ein ganz besonderer Schatz. Rodri gehört zu den unzähligen Podencos, die jedes Jahr Opfer der Jagd in Spanien sind. In Massen werden diese liebenswerten Tiere benutzt und dann entsorgt, wenn sie nicht mehr benötigt werden. Podencos sind sehr intelligente und menschenfreundliche Hunde, die unglaublich viel Liebe zu verschenken haben, wenn man ihr Vertrauen gewinnt. Auch Rodri trägt diese Liebe in sich und wünscht sich so sehr, Teil einer liebevollen Familie zu werden. Schließlich bat der Pfarrer der Kirche Alberto um Hilfe, der den kleinen Rodri ins Tierheim holte. Für Rodri ist das nun die Chance, endlich gesehen zu werden. Ja, Podencos gibt es in Spanien wie Sand am Meer – aber es gibt nur einen Rodri und wir wünschen uns, dass er nun seine eigene Familie findet, für die er absolut einzigartig ist. Rodri zeigt im Tierheim, dass er ein wirklich lieber und anhänglicher Kerl ist, der sich gern in der Nähe seiner Pfleger aufhält und sich Streicheleinheiten abholt. Wir sind uns sicher, dass seine zukünftige Familie sehr glücklich mit ihm werden wird.

About Rodri

What life with Rodri looks like

Rodri is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein Europa in München.

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 Rodri, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Rodri?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutzverein Europa 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 — Tierschutzverein Europa 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 Tierschutzverein Europa 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.
