Chapo

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 4 years

Chapo – ist schon zu lange im Refugio Chapo ist ca. im November 2021 geboren, wiegt etwa 25 kg und hat eine Schulterhöhe von ca. 50-55 cm. Er wurde schon als Welpe gerettet und lebt seitdem im Refugium von Carmen. Chapo ist ein lieber, zutraulicher und verschmuster Hund, der die Nähe zu Menschen sehr genießt. Mit anderen Hunden kommt er gut zurecht. An der Leine zu laufen muss noch geübt werden. Doch mit Geduld und Liebe wird er das sicher bald lernen. Im Auto ist er anfangs etwas aufgeregt, beruhigt sich aber schnell und fährt dann entspannt mit. Chapo wünscht sich ein Zuhause, in dem er endlich ankommen und ein vollwertiges Familienmitglied werden darf. Wenn Sie sich angesprochen fühlen, freuen wir uns auf Ihre Anfrage!

About Chapo

What life with Chapo looks like

Chapo is an adult mixed breed dog waiting at Alba for Animals e.V. in Oberhausen.

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 Chapo, answered.

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