Hawk

Dogo Argentino · Female

Breed: Dogo Argentino compatibility with others: Sits well with a female dog in the enclosure; male dogs not known; Cats: Cannot be tested. Current location: Auffangstation Istanbul (Turkey) Hawk is one we were able to rescue from a death shelter in Turkey. He was in a very poor condition. Dogs must pay for the mistakes of humans, being senselessly placed in death shelters where they also experience death fear. He needs a stable home with experienced breeders. Stability, security, love, and safety, all of which were denied to him so far. He longs for peace and a sense of belonging. For safety’s sake, we should not have small children in the household. An enclosed backyard would be ideal. Hawk has not been able to learn much so far. He should be shown and taught everything in peace. He will surely become a proud male dog.

Rasse: Dogo Argentino Verträglichkeit: Sitzt mit einer Hündin im Zwinger; Rüden nicht bekannt; Katzen: Kann nicht getestet werden. Derzeitiger Aufenthaltsort: Auffangstation Istanbul (Türkei) Hawk haben wir aus einem Todeslager in der Türkei rausholen können. Er befand sich in einem sehr schlechten Zustand. Hunde müssen für die Fehler der Menschen bezahlen, werden sinnlos ohne Grund in Todeslager gesteckt, wo sie auch Todesangst haben. Er braucht ein stabiles Zuhause bei Rasse erfahrenen Haltern. Stabilität, Sicherheit, Liebe und Geborgenheit, all das war ihm bis jetzt verwehrt. Er sehnt sich nach Ruhe und Ankommen dürfen. Da wir über seine Vergangenheit nichts wissen sollten sicherheitshalber keinen kleinen Kinder im Haushalt leben. Ideal wäre ein eingezäunter Garten. Hwak hat bisher nicht viel lernen können. Man sollte ihm ganz in Ruhe alles zeigen und beibringen. Er wird ganz sicher zu einem stolzen Rüden werden.

About Hawk

What life with Hawk looks like

Hawk is an adult dogo argentino dog waiting at Pföttchenretter mit Herz e.V. in Leichlingen.

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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Hawk, answered.

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