How do I contact the shelter about Zenon?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. ProTier e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Zenon on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Zenon if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — ProTier 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 Zenon 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 Zenon 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 ProTier e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Zenon and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.

Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?

Zenon

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 8 years

Athena, Margot and Zenon are three sibling dogs who were once happy in a family home. However, due to private circumstances, they lost their home and ended up in the Canile Arzachena. They were very sad to leave their home and everything familiar behind. When we visited the Canile Arzachena in September 2025, Athena, Margot and Zenon were waiting for us in their enclosure. They were very excited to see us and enjoyed our attention and petting. It was hard for us to leave them again. Although the dogs in the Canile Arzachena receive enough food and the staff are very friendly, a real home cannot replace the Canile. It must be especially difficult for dogs that have lived in a family for years to adjust to life in a Canile. Athena, Margot and Zenon are not young dogs anymore. We really hope they do not have to stay in the Canile for too long and get the chance to travel to Germany soon. We wish for them to find a loving home and experience many more happy years with their new family. If you would like to give Athena, Margot or Zenon a dream home with a close family connection, please contact us. If you are looking for a new furry family member and are aware that adoption not only brings a lot of joy but also work and great responsibility, we look forward to your message.

Während unserer Sardinientour im September 2025 stand natürlich auch auf dem Programm, die neuen Hunde im Canile Arzachena kennenzulernen und auch einige der schon bekannten Schützlinge wiederzusehen.Im Gehege 23 wartete schon das tolle Trio Athena, Margot und Zenon auf uns. Die drei Geschwister hatten über viele Jahre eine Familie, bei der sie gemeinsam glücklich waren. Doch private Umstände führten nun dazu, dass Athena, Margot Zenon nun ihr Zuhause verloren haben und im Canile landeten. Das tat uns wirklich von Herzen leid, denn es muss für die drei wunderbaren, lieben Hunde ein Schock gewesen sein, aus einem Zuhause herausgerissen zu werden, alles Gewohnte hinter sich lassen zu müssen.Athena, Margot und Zenon freuten sich riesig, als wir ihr Gehege betraten. Sie waren ständig um uns herum, genossen unsere Zuwendung und die Streicheleinheiten. Sie wollten uns gar nicht mehr gehen lassen. Und es fiel uns auch richtig schwer, uns wieder von ihnen zu verabschieden.Auch wenn die Hunde im Canile Arzachena ausreichend Futter bekommen und die Mitarbeiter sehr freundlich sind: Ein richtiges Zuhause kann das Canile nicht ersetzen. Und für Hunde, die über Jahre schon in einer Familie gelebt, muss es besonders schlimm sein, sich mit dem Leben in einem Canile abfinden zu müssen.Athena, Margot und Zenon sind ja auch keine Jungspunde mehr. Wir wünschen uns deshalb sehr, dass sie nicht allzu lange im Canile ausharren müssen, sondern bald ihre Chance bekommen, die große Reise nach Deutschland anzutreten. Hier sollen sie dann bei lieben Menschen ihre wunderbaren Zuhause finden und noch einige schöne Jahre im Familienkreis erleben dürfen.Möchten Sie Athena, Margot oder Zenon das Traumzuhause mit engem Familienanschluss schenken?Wenn Sie gerade auf der Suche nach einem neuen fellnasigen Familienmitglied sind und Ihnen bewusst ist, dass eine Adoption nicht nur viel Freude bedeutet, sondern auch Arbeit und große Verantwortung mit sich bringt, dann freuen wir uns auf Ihre Nachricht.01.

About Zenon

What life with Zenon looks like

Zenon is a extra-large adult mixed breed dog waiting at ProTier e.V. in Germany.

An 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. Animals leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with a valid EU pet passport. Adoption fees usually fall between €250 and €450, covering veterinary preparation.
