Vito

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

Vito lebt in einer Pension in Patras/Griechenland.VIDEOS VORHANDEN !!! Rüde/kastriertgeb. ca Oktober 2025Grösse : ca. 58 cm Update 11.10.2026: Stattlicher Hundejunge sucht sein XXL Körbchen !! Update 11.10.2026Unsere Kolleginnen berichten über Vito : Vito ist ein wunderschöner Rüde, er war uns gegenüber sehr offen, ließ sich streicheln und auch Leckerlies hat er gerne genommen. Mit den anderen Hunden hatte er keinerlei Probleme. Mit seinen 58cm hat er eine staatliche Größe, also sind hier Fans von großen Hunden gefragt.WAS BISHER GESCHAH:Vito wurde im Sommer von Tierschützern im Industriegebiet von Patras gefunden.Er irrte dort mit einem anderen Rüden zwischen Gebüschen und Lastwagen umher. Maria bat die Pensionsbetreiberin Sofia darum, dass sie die beiden Hunde täglich mit Futter und Wasser versorgt. Der zweite Rüde verschwand jedoch und wurde leider später tot aufgefunden. Er wurde von den vorbeifahrenden LKW überfahren. Vito blieb alleine zurück und schrie vor Freude, wenn Maria oder ihre Kollegen zu ihm kamen, um ihn mit Futter und Wasser zu versorgen. Die Tierschützer konnten Vito nicht seinem Schicksal überlassen und brachten ihn bei der Pensionbetreiberin unter, wo er nun auf sein Zuhause wartet. Vito wird als lieber Hundejunge beschrieben, der sich über Alles und Jeden freut. Natürlich muss er bei seiner neuen Familie erst einmal in Ruhe ankommen und alles Nötige lernen können. Hier ist Zeit und Geduld sowie liebevolle , konsequente Erziehung nötig. Vito ist bei seiner Einreise geimpft, gechipt und entwurmt. Außerdem bringt er seinen eigenen EU-Heimtierausweis mit, wenn er in Deutschland ankommt.

About Vito

What life with Vito looks like

Vito is an extra-large young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierfreunde Patras e.V. in Ratingen.

A young 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 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 Vito, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Vito?
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 Vito on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Vito 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 Vito 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 Vito 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 Vito 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.
