Teide-2

Podenco · Male · Adult · 7 years

Ursprungsland: Spain Teide is a picture-perfect male dog who loves long walks in nature more than anything. On the leash, he already walks very well and clearly enjoys his excursions. Teide has a strong prey drive, so he should not be rehomed with small animals or cats. In the animal shelter, he shares his pen with a female dog with whom he gets along exceptionally well – the two are a real dream team. How he gets along with other male dogs we would be happy to test if you are interested. Regarding food, Teide still shows some resource guarding towards other dogs – no wonder, as he had to fight for survival for a long time. With a bit of patience and training, this can certainly be improved. Teide loves running and playing – a house with a large, securely fenced garden would be ideal for him. There, he could move freely, sniff around, relax, and lie in the sun. He is a very people-oriented and affectionate dog who relishes affection and attention. Teide is ready to be a faithful companion to his person – loving, clingy, and full of joy. For Teide, we are looking for people who have familiarized themselves with the Podenco breed and appreciate his special qualities. A loving, active home with patience, understanding, and a family connection would be his greatest happiness.

Ursprungsland: Spanien Teide ist ein bildschöner Rüde, der lange Spaziergänge in der Natur über alles liebt. An der Leine läuft er bereits sehr gut und geniesst seine Ausflüge sichtlich. Teide bringt einen ausgeprägten Jagdtrieb mit, weshalb er nicht zu Kleintieren oder Katzen vermittelt werden sollte. Im Tierheim teilt er sich den Zwinger mit einer Hündin, mit der er sich hervorragend versteht – die beiden sind ein echtes Dream-Team. Wie er sich mit Rüden versteht können wir bei Interesse sehr gerne testen. Beim Thema Futter zeigt Teide noch etwas Ressourcenverteidigung gegenüber anderen Hunden – kein Wunder, musste er doch lange Zeit ums Überleben kämpfen. Mit etwas Geduld und Training lässt sich das sicherlich weiter verbessern. Teide liebt es zu rennen und zu spielen – ein Haus mit grossem, sicher eingezäuntem Garten wäre ideal für ihn. Dort könnte er sich frei bewegen, schnüffeln, entspannen und in der Sonne liegen. Er ist ein sehr menschenbezogener und verschmuster Hund, der Zuwendung und Aufmerksamkeit in vollen Zügen geniesst. Teide ist bereit, seinem Menschen ein treuer Begleiter zu sein – liebevoll, anhänglich und voller Lebensfreude. Für Teide suchen wir Menschen, die sich mit der Rasse Podenco auseinandergesetzt haben und seine besonderen Eigenschaften zu schätzen wissen. Ein liebevolles, aktives Zuhause mit Geduld, Verständnis und Familienanschluss wäre sein grösstes Glück.

About Teide-2

What life with Teide-2 looks like

Teide-2 is a adult podenco dog waiting at Animal Happyend in Animal Happyend.

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 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Teide-2, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Teide-2?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Animal Happyend handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Teide-2 on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Teide-2 if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Animal Happyend 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 Teide-2 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 Teide-2 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 Animal Happyend early rather than rehoming privately; they know Teide-2 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.
