Tsimo lives in a pension in Patras / GreeceVIDEO AVAILABLE !!! male dog/castrated born ca. July 2019Size: ca. 45 cm Update 27.10.2025: Our colleagues report on Tsimo: Tsimo is a very active and lively dog, his appearance suggests he is a hunting dog mix. Tsimo requires regular exercise and activities, as well as long walks, to balance his energy level and keep him mentally and physically healthy. He is definitely not a couch potato and thus seeks an active home. WHAT HAS HAPPENED UNTIL NOW:Tsimo experienced the classic fate of an unwanted hunting dog. His "owner" tied the male dog to a tree – on such a short rope that Tsimo almost strangled himself. Fortunately, a young student witnessed this, she called the police, and Tsimo was freed. A local animal rescuer brought the male dog to the vet, where he was checked, castrated, and vaccinated. After that, he was housed in a animal shelter and shares his run with another male dog and a female dog. Tsimo is a friendly fellow, of course, a prey drive must be expected. He is already castrated, vaccinated, microchipped, and dewormed. Additionally, he has his own EU pet passport.

Tsimo lebt in einer Pension in Patras / GriechenlandVIDEO VORHANDEN !!! Rüde/kastriertgeb. ca. Juli 2019Grösse : ca. 45 cm Update 17.10.2026:Unsere Kolleginnen berichten über Tsimo: Tsimo ist seit zwei Jahren in der Pension und hatte bis jetzt keine einzige Anfrage :( Mittlerweile ist er schon sieben Jahre alt, erschien uns dieses mal auch nicht mehr so aktiv, wie in den Jahren zuvor. Aber natürlich ist er noch fit und würde sich über ausgedehnte Spaziergänge in seinem Zuhause freuen. Update 27.10.2025:Unsere Kolleginnen berichten über Tsimo: Tsimo ist ein sehr aktiver und lebendiger Hund, sein Aussehen deutet darauf hin, dass er ein Jagdhundmischling ist. Tsimo benötigt regelmäßige Bewegung und Aktivitäten, sowie lange Spaziergänge, um sein Energielevel auszugleichen und ihn mental und physisch gesund zu halten. Er ist sicher kein Couchpotato und sucht deshalb ein aktives Zuhause.WAS BISHER GESCHAH:Tsimo erlebte das klassische Schicksal eines ungewollten Jagdhundes.Sein „Besitzer“ fesselte den Rüden an einen Baum – an einer so kurzen Schnur, dass Tsimo sich fast selbst stranguliert hat. Zum Glück beobachtete dies eine junge Studentin, sie rief die Polizei und Tsimo konnte befreit werden. Eine örtliche Tierschützerin brachte den Rüden zum Tierarzt, wo er gecheckt, kastriert und geimpft wurde. Anschließend ist er in einer Tierpension untergebracht worden und teilt sich dort den Zwinger mit einem Rüden und einer Hündin. Tsimo ist ein freundliches Kerlchen, rassetypisch muss natürlich mit einem eventuellen Jagdtrieb gerechnet werden. Er ist bereits kastriert, geimpft, gechipt und entwurmt. Außerdem hat er seinen eigenen EU-Heimtierausweis im Gepäck.

About Tsimo

What life with Tsimo looks like

Tsimo is an adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierfreunde Patras e.V. in Ratingen.

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 Germany

German rescues typically require an in-person home visit (Vorkontrolle) or detailed video home check before approving adoption. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Tsimo, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Tsimo?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierfreunde Patras e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Tsimo on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Tsimo if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierfreunde Patras 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Tsimo 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 Tsimo 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 Tierfreunde Patras e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Tsimo 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.
