Sión

Mixed Breed · Male

♂, born ca. 08/21 friendly - sociable - playful in Spain Sión is a 2021-born Labrador retriever, who, despite weighing 22kg, is more of a slender representative of his breed. He lived with a woman who informed our Spanish animal rescuer that she can no longer keep him as she must care for her sick mother. Initially, it was agreed that a good home would be found for Sión, but he would stay with the woman for a while. Some time later, the woman said she would bring him to the large state animal shelter if the animal rescuer did not pick him up immediately. So the animal rescuer got into the car and took him away. He had been very poorly fed before, with junk food, causing him to have a swollen belly, suffer from vomiting and diarrhea. He vomited banana peels and other trash. His belly quickly reduced in size, and he was put on hypoallergenic food to ease his stomach and intestines. This food suits him very well. His new family should be prepared to continue feeding him this way. For Sión, we wish to find people who would like to provide him with a healthy and varied life. Sión has not yet seen much of the world and is a happy, kind, playful, and curious dog. He loves people, playing with a ball, and is happy when you engage with him. Sión travels neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, and tested for Mediterranean diseases to Germany. At present, he is in Sevilla, Spain. If you would like to give Sión a home, please contact us via the contact form. The adoption fee for Sión is 560 Euro ©2022 by Ein Freund fürs Leben e.V.. Created with Wix.

♂, geb. ca. 08/21freundlich - gesellig - verspieltin Spanien Sión ist ein 08/2021 geborener Labradorrüde, der mit einem Gewicht von 22kg eher ein zierlicher Vertreter seiner Rasse ist. Er lebte bei einer Frau, die unserer spanischen Tierschützerin mitteilte, dass sie ihn nicht länger behalten kann, weil sie sich um ihre kranke Mutter kümmern muss. Zuerst einigte man sich darauf, dass ein gutes Zuhause für Sión gesucht wird, er aber so lange bei der Frau bleiben kann. Einige Zeit später sagte die Frau, dass sie ihn ins große staatliche Tierheim bringt, wenn die Tierschützerin ihn nicht umgehend abholt. Die Tierschützerin stieg also ins Auto und holte ihn dort weg. Er wurde zuvor sehr ungesund ernährt, sie gab ihm Junkfood, sodass er einen stark geschwollenen Bauch hatte, unter Erbrechen und Durchfall litt. Er erbrach Bananenschalen und weiteren Müll. Sein Bauch schwoll danach schnell ab und man stellte ihn auf hypoallergenes Futter um, um seinen Magen und Darm zu entlasten. Dieses Futter bekommt ihm sehr gut. Seine neue Familie sollte bereit sein, ihn weiterhin so zu ernähren. Für Sión wünschen wir uns Menschen, die ihm ein gesundes und abwechslungsreiches Leben ermöglichen möchten. Sión hat noch nicht viel von der Welt kennengelernt und ist ein fröhlicher, gutmütiger, verspielter und neugieriger Hund. Er liebt die Menschen, das Ballspielen, und freut sich, wenn man sich mit ihm beschäftigt. Sión reist kastriert, gechipt, geimpft und auf Mittelmeerkrankheiten getestet nach Deutschland. Derzeit befindet er sich in Sevilla/Spanien. Wenn Sie Sión ein Zuhause geben möchten, melden Sie sich bitte über das Kontaktformular. Die Schutzgebühr für Sión beträgt 560 Euro ©2022 von Ein Freund fürs Leben e.V.. Erstellt mit Wix.com

About Sión

What life with Sión looks like

Sión is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Ein Freund fürs Leben e.V. in Berlin.

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. 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 Sión, answered.

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