Ugo

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

Update 22.08.2026: Maybe now is finally Ugo's moment! Since January, our handsome Ugo has been waiting to be discovered by his people. Somehow he has always been a bit overlooked so far – yet this cheerful, friendly and easygoing fellow has so much to give. 🥰 Sometimes it isn't so easy to regularly get new pictures or current information about our charges. But even though we can't always supply you with new photos, we certainly do not want to let Ugo be forgotten. Because somewhere out there, there is surely his person. A person who isn't looking for the perfect photo, but becomes curious and says: "Tell me more about Ugo!" 🐶🐾 Ugo is welcome to move in with an existing first dog and is waiting to find his very own new sphere of life. 🏡 Who is ready for the adventure "UGO"? Who would like to get to know him and start the adventure together with Ugo, to experience the "most beautiful shared stories"? Maybe NOW is exactly the right moment to meet Ugo. ❤️ Ugo is looking for his forever home 🐾 (01/26) Ugo is a male dog, born in October 2021. Unfortunately, nothing is known about his life history up to now – we know neither how he grew up nor when or why he ended up in the canile. Therefore, one must assume that Ugo has so far been able to experience little and that many everyday situations may still be completely new to him. Ugo gets along well with other dogs and is playful. Toward people he is friendly but reserved. How he reacts to new environmental influences cannot be said precisely, which is why we wish for him a home with patient and understanding people who give him time to build trust and settle in at his own pace. His name Ugo, the Italian form of Hugo, derives from the Germanic word "hugu" and means "heart," "spirit," or "mind." These are exactly the qualities we wish for him in his future: a loving home with heart, calm, and structure. Who will give Ugo the chance at a new life and take on responsibility for a dog who still has much to learn and depends on his people? We are sure Ugo would love to walk through forest and field as a loyal companion with you. Feel free to contact me. Video: January 2026 Your contact person for this

Update 22.08.2026: Vielleicht ist jetzt endlich Ugos Moment! Seit Januar wartet unser hübscher Ugo darauf, von seinen Menschen entdeckt zu werden. Irgendwie ist er bisher immer ein bisschen untergegangen – dabei hat dieser fröhliche, freundliche und verträgliche Kerl so viel zu geben. 🥰 Manchmal ist es gar nicht so leicht, regelmäßig neue Bilder oder aktuelle Infos von unseren Schützlingen zu bekommen. Aber auch wenn wir euch nicht ständig mit neuen Fotos versorgen können, möchten wir Ugo keinesfalls in Vergessenheit geraten lassen. Denn irgendwo da draußen gibt es ganz sicher seinen Menschen. Einen Menschen, der nicht nach dem perfekten Foto sucht, sondern neugierig wird und sagt: „Erzähl mir mehr über Ugo!“ 🐶🐾 Ugo darf gerne zu einem bereits vorhandenen Ersthund ziehen und wartet darauf, seinen ganz persönlichen neuen Wirkungskreis zu finden. 🏡 Wer ist bereit für das Abenteuer „UGO“? Wer möchte ihn kennenlernen und gemeinsam mit Ugo ins Abenteuer starten, um die „schönsten gemeinsame Geschichten“, zu erleben? Vielleicht ist JETZT genau der richtige Moment, Ugo zu sehen. ❤️ Ugo sucht sein Für-immer-Zuhause 🐾 (01/26) Ugo ist ein Rüde, geboren im Oktober 2021. Über seine bisherige Lebensgeschichte ist leider nichts bekannt – wir wissen weder, wie er aufgewachsen ist noch wann oder warum er im Canile gelandet ist. Daher muss man davon ausgehen, dass Ugo bislang nur wenig kennenlernen durfte und viele Alltagssituationen für ihn noch völlig neu sein können. Ugo ist mit anderen Hunden verträglich und verspielt. Menschen gegenüber ist er freundlich, aber zurückhaltend. Wie er auf neue Umwelteinflüsse reagiert, lässt sich nicht genau sagen, weshalb wir uns für ihn ein Zuhause bei geduldigen und verständnisvollen Menschen wünschen, die ihm Zeit geben, Vertrauen zu fassen und in seinem eigenen Tempo anzukommen. Sein Name Ugo, die italienische Form von Hugo, leitet sich vom germanischen Wort „hugu“ ab und bedeutet „Herz“, „Geist“ oder „Verstand“. Genau diese Eigenschaften wünschen wir ihm auch für seine Zukunft: ein liebevolles Zuhause mit Herz, Ruhe und Struktur. Wer gibt Ugo die Chance auf ein neues Leben und übernimmt Verantwortung für einen Hund, der noch viel lernen darf und auf seine Menschen angewiesen ist? Wir sind sicher, Ugo würde gerne als treuer Begleiter mit Ihnen durch Wald und Flur spazieren. Melden Sie sich gerne bei mir. Video: Januar 2026 Ihre Ansprechpartnerin für diese

About Ugo

What life with Ugo looks like

Ugo is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at saving dogs e.V. in Germany.

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 Ugo, answered.

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