Stitch

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 5 months

This young Maremmano mix is just 5 months old and is at the beginning of his life. He is a friendly, very social puppy who is now looking for people to accompany him on his journey to adulthood. His social behavior is particularly nice: he is compatible with other dogs, can get along with cats and we can also imagine living with children. He already brings wonderful conditions for his future home. Nevertheless, it should not be forgotten that he is a Maremmano and thus a herding dog. Although he is still young and open-minded, the typical characteristics of a herding dog can develop more strongly with increasing age. Therefore, we are looking for people with herding dog experience or very good knowledge of their special needs and character traits. Of course, the young man also needs to learn the dog-1x1. He needs a calm, confident and consistent leadership, clear structures and people who give him enough space to develop. We specifically want a rural home for him, ideally with a securely fenced garden. A life in the middle of the city does not correspond to the home we imagine for a Maremmano mix. Whoever decides for him will not get a finished dog, but a young guy with a lot of potential, a great social behavior and a wonderful character. Who knows and loves the special characteristics of herding dogs and wants to give this great boy a home for life?

Mit gerade einmal 5 Monaten steht dieser junge Maremmano-Mix noch ganz am Anfang seines Lebens. Er ist ein freundlicher, sehr sozialer Junghund, der nun Menschen sucht, die ihn auf seinem Weg ins Erwachsenenleben begleiten. Besonders schön ist sein unkompliziertes Sozialverhalten: Er zeigt sich verträglich mit anderen Hunden, kann zu Katzen und auch ein Zusammenleben mit Kindern können wir uns gut vorstellen. Er bringt damit bereits wunderbare Voraussetzungen für sein zukünftiges Zuhause mit. Trotzdem sollte nicht vergessen werden, dass in ihm ein Maremmano und damit ein Herdenschutzhund steckt. Auch wenn er aktuell noch jung und aufgeschlossen ist, können sich die typischen Eigenschaften eines Herdenschutzhundes mit zunehmendem Alter stärker entwickeln. Deshalb suchen wir für ihn Menschen mit Herdenschutzhund-Erfahrung oder sehr guten Kenntnissen über deren besondere Bedürfnisse und Charaktereigenschaften. Das Hunde-1x1 muss der junge Mann natürlich ebenfalls noch lernen. Er braucht eine ruhige, souveräne und konsequente Führung, klare Strukturen und Menschen, die ihm gleichzeitig genügend Raum geben, sich zu entwickeln. Für ihn wünschen wir uns ausdrücklich ein ländliches Zuhause, idealerweise mit sicher eingezäuntem Garten. Ein Leben mitten in der Stadt entspricht nicht dem Zuhause, das wir uns für einen Maremmano-Mix vorstellen. Wer sich für ihn entscheidet, bekommt keinen fertigen Hund, sondern einen jungen Kerl mit ganz viel Potenzial, einem tollen Sozialverhalten und einem wunderbaren Charakter. Wer kennt und liebt die besonderen Eigenschaften von Herdenschutzhunden und möchte diesem tollen Jungen ein Zuhause fürs Leben schenken?

About Stitch

What life with Stitch looks like

Stitch is a extra-large puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Fellnasen Stuttgart e.V. in Stuttgart.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇩🇪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 Stitch, answered.

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