Sancho

Mixed Breed · Unknown

Sancho came from Teneriffa. Shortly after his arrival, we noticed he had a problem with his hind leg. An operation on the thigh bone was necessary to prevent him from experiencing further pain. We were able to finance this operation and the subsequent physiotherapy through donations. Therefore, we are particularly happy that we were able to find a wonderful new family for Sancho, despite this handicap. We wish Sancho and his new family all the best and a worry-free future together. Here are a few pictures. Click an image to enlarge.

Sancho kam von Teneriffa. Kurz nach seiner Ankunft stellten wir fest, dass er ein Problem an seinem Hinterbein hatte. Es war eine Operation des Oberschenkelknochens nötig um ihm weitere Schmerzen zu ersparen. Diese OP und auch die anschließende Physiotherapie konnten wir durch Spenden finanzieren. Deshalb sind wir besonders froh, dass es uns gelungen ist für Sancho, trotz dieses Handicaps, eine tolle neue Familie zu finden. Wir wünschen Sancho und seiner neuen Familie alles Gute und eine sorgenfreie Zukunft miteinander. Hier ein paar Bilder. Zur Vergrößerung bitte ein Bild anklicken.

About Sancho

What life with Sancho looks like

Sancho is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein Second Chance Dogs e.V. in Zornheim.

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 Sancho, answered.

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