Tom

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 8 months

Tom ist ein ausgesprochen liebe Rüde und kam erst am 22. August 2026 in das private Tierheim von Gisela. Dort blüht er richtig auf. Vorher musste der Arme in einem städtischen Shelter ausharren, wo er fast immer in einen Zwinger eingesperrt war. Also wirklich kein schöner Ort. Der hübsche Rüde entwickelte sich nach sehr kurzer Zeit bereits zu einem wahren Vorzeigehund. Er ist menschenbezogen, versteht sich mit allen anderen Hunden, drängelt sich nicht in den Vordergrund und genießt jetzt erst einmal, dass er nicht mehr fast 24 Stunden über in einem Zwinger sitzt, denn auf der Quinta laufen die Hunde über den Tag frei auf dem Gelände herum. Doch natürlich soll sein momentaner Aufenthaltsort nur eine kurze Episode in seinem Leben darstellen, das jedenfalls wünschen wir ihm von Herzen. Tom hat es verdient gesehen zu werden und er würde so gerne unter Beweis stellen, welch toller Hund in ihm steckt. Falls Sie Interesse an dem Rüden haben sollten, dann melden Sie sich doch bitte bei uns.

About Tom

What life with Tom looks like

Tom is a large puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Rifugio Canalba e.V. in Germany.

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 Tom, answered.

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