Sid

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 4 years

Sid lived on the streets in the spa town of Băile Felix, Romania. Because of the many tourists, he had to leave, so he was taken in by the Sisterea animal shelter. He was dewormed, vaccinated, microchipped and neutered. All that's missing now is a beautiful, suitable home. The ITV Grenzenlos wants to make that happen. Sid is a good, nice male dog. He is still somewhat cautious and insecure; he was alone on the streets and had no one to give him security and affection. Therefore he now needs a little time and help to gain self-confidence and learn to relax. Sid is looking for a family with understanding and some dog experience. A second dog in the family that he can look up to would be an advantage. Sid gets along well with the other dogs at the shelter, causes no problems and has integrated well. He still needs to practice walking on a leash. Sid was born around March 2022 and is now 55 cm tall. He came to the shelter in May 2026. Here he was medically prepared for his journey to Germany. He will receive a heartworm test when someone is interested in him. Please call: 05085 – 955171 or . Sid in the video:

Der freundliche Sid lebte auf der Straße Sid lebte auf der Straße im Kurort Băile Felix, Rumänien. Er musste wegen der vielen Touristen weg, deshalb wurde er im Tierheim von Sisterea aufgenommen. Er wurde entwurmt, geimpft, gechipt und kastriert. Es fehlt ihm nur noch ein schönes passendes Zuhause. Dafür möchte der ITV Grenzenlos sorgen. Sid ist ein guter netter Rüde. Er ist noch etwas vorsichtig und unsicher, er war allein auf der Straße und hatte niemanden, der ihm Sicherheit und Zuwendung zu schenken. Daher braucht er nun ein bisschen Zeit und Hilfe, Selbstvertrauen zu gewinnen und sich zu entspannen. Sid sucht eine Familie mit Verständnis und etwas Hundeerfahrung. Ein zweiter Hund in der Familie, an dem er sich orientieren kann, wäre von Vorteil. Sid versteht sich gut mit den anderen Hunden im Tierheim, er macht keine Probleme und hat sich gut integriert. Er muss noch das Laufen an der Leine üben. Sid wurde ca. im März 2022 geboren und ist jetzt 55 cm groß. Ins Tierheim kam er im Mai 2026. Hier wurde er medizinisch vorbereitet für seine Reise nach Deutschland. Einen Test auf Herzwürmer bekommt er, wenn jemand sich für ihn interessiert.

About Sid

What life with Sid looks like

Sid is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at ITV Grenzenlos e.V. in Essel.

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

Frequently asked

Adopting Sid, answered.

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