How do I contact the shelter about Tano?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. home4dogs handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Tano on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Tano if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — home4dogs 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 Tano 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 Tano 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 home4dogs early rather than rehoming privately; they know Tano 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.

Tano

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 8 years

About 7.5 years old (born around August 2018) 58 cm Male, neutered STILL IN POLAND, Bogu Update January 2026 Tolle Neuigkeiten von TANO 🙂 Tano now lives with two other dogs (one female and one male) and has really blossomed 🌸! He enjoys running and playing with his buddies and maintains a real athletic figure. Inside, the three of them snuggle side by side on a dog bed and rest together. Tano is very sensitive and clingy with his trusted people: if the caretakers leave the room, he is always completely sad and has to briefly whine because he so loves being with people – a true German Shepherd! Tano wishes for a home where he can spend lots of time with his favorite people, where he can be a full-fledged family member and feel safe and secure. Do you want to fulfill our lovely Tano's biggest wish 🐾💫? Update August 25 Our big, lovely Tano is a real cuddle bear: friendly, open, and extremely people-oriented. He loves running over the big meadow and then snuggling up comfortably. Tano needs people who give him affection, exercise, and love. Who will give him a forever home? Tano has been in Bogu since May 2023, so it's high time we introduce you to this "big teddy bear," as he has developed wonderfully: Where he was once reserved around people, he now greets all two-leggeds kindly and openly! Tano is grateful for any attention and is overjoyed when taken on a walk outside the shelter. He is a bit plump and perhaps not an ultra-walker, but he certainly doesn't belong with the "Old Irons" at his 6 years of age. Tano is fit and active and loves to be on the go. Tano walks very well on a leash and gets along well with female dogs. With male dogs, it must be defined who is the leader and who has the say. Tano wishes for a home with people who love to be outdoors. Some interesting variations, like a bit of nose work, would definitely appeal to him. He would make a great single dog or fit well with a non-dominant female dog. Who would like to give our beautiful German Shepherd with the light mask a wonderful home? We are sure he will thank you as a loyal friend and companion. Videos June 24: Video August 23:

ca 8 Jahre (geb. ca 08.2018) 58 cm Männlich, kastriert NOCH IN POLEN, Boguszyce Update Juni 26 Tano ist einfach ein so unendlich sanfter Kerl! 🥰 Er läuft absolut perfekt an der Leine. Selbst im Moment, wo er mit zwei quirligen Jungspunden zusammenlebt, bleibt er tiefenentspannt und ist die Ruhe selbst. ❤️ Ein echter Traumhund mit einer Seele aus Gold! Video: Update Januar 2026 Tolle Neuigkeiten von TANO 🙂 Tano lebt inzwischen mit zwei weiteren Hunden zusammen (einem Weibchen und einem Männchen) und ist richtig aufgeblüht 🌸! Er geniesst es mit seinen Kumpels ausgelassen herumzurennen und zu spielen und gibt dabei eine richtige sportliche Figur ab. Drinnen kuscheln die drei dann Seite an Seite auf einem Hundebettchen und ruhen sich gemeinsam aus. Tano ist sehr feinfühlig und sehr anhänglich bei seinen Bezugspersonen: wenn die Pfleger den Raum verlassen, ist er immer völlig traurig, muss dann auch kurz jammern, denn er ist eben so gerne mit Menschen zusammen – echter Schäfi eben! Tano wünscht sich sehnlichst ein Zuhause, wo er viel Zeit mit seinen Lieblingsmenschen verbringen darf, wo er als vollwertiges Familienmitglied dabei sein darf und sich sicher und geborgen fühlen kann. Wollen Sie unserem liebenswerten Tano seinen grössten Wunsch erfüllen 🐾💫? Update August 25 Unser grosser, liebenswerter Tano ist ein echter Knuddelbär: freundlich, offen und extrem menschenbezogen. Er liebt es, über die grosse Wiese zu rennen und danach gemütlich zu kuscheln. Tano braucht Menschen, die ihm regelmässig Zuwendung, Bewegung und Liebe schenken. Wer schenkt ihm ein für immer Zuhause? Tano ist seit Mai 2023 in Bogu, also höchste Zeit, dass wir Ihnen diesen „big teddy bear“ vorstellen, zumal er sich ganz toll entwickelt hat: Wo er anfangs bei Menschen etwas zurückhaltend war, begrüsst er heute alle Zweibeiner freundlich und offen! Tano ist für jede Aufmerksamkeit dankbar und wenn man ihn auf einen Spaziergang ausserhalb des Tierheims mitnimmt ist er überglücklich. Er ist ein bisschen mollig und vielleicht kein Ultra-Wanderer, aber zum „Alten Eisen“ gehört er mit seinen 6 Jahren noch längst nicht. Tano ist fit und aktiv und gerne unterwegs. Tano läuft sehr gut an der Leine und ist mit Hündinnen gut verträglich. Mit Rüden muss erst definiert werden, wer der Leader ist und das Sagen hat. Tano wünscht sich ein Zuhause bei Menschen, die gerne in der Natur unterwegs sind. Interessante Abwechslung z.B. mit ein bisschen Nasenarbeit würden ihm bestimmt sehr gefallen. Er würde sich bestens als Einzelhund eignen oder auch zu einer nicht-dominanten Hündin. Wer möchte unserem wunderschönen Schäfi mit der hellen Maske ein tolles Zuhause schenken? Wir sind uns sicher, dass er es Ihnen als treuer Freund und Begleiter danken wird. Videos Juni 24: Video August 23:

About Tano

What life with Tano looks like

Tano is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at home4dogs in Home4dogs.

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 Switzerland

Swiss shelters require a home visit (Platzkontrolle) and proof of suitable accommodation. Cantons each have their own additional dog-keeping requirements (e.g. SKN training in some areas). Animals leave sterilized and chipped.
