How do I contact the shelter about Zico?

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

Can I adopt Zico if I live in another country?

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

Zico

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 4 years

a gentle little fellow seeking security 🐾 Zico is an approximately 4-year-old male dog (born 09/2021) who is currently still in Romania waiting for his chance. When he arrived at the intake station, he was initially shy and reserved. Over time, however, he has gained trust in his caregivers and now enjoys their company and affection. In a new home, Zico will certainly need an adjustment period – patience and empathy are required here. He shows no aggression and has never tried to bite out of fear. When he feels unsure, he prefers to retreat and hide from unfamiliar people. Once he has gained trust, he slowly warms up and reveals his loving, gentle side. Zico gets along well with other dogs – a confident canine companion would be a great support for him. He also has no issues with cats. Since Zico needs time and peace to settle in, we wish for him a quiet home without small children. With a shoulder height of about 32 cm and a weight of 12 kg, he is a sturdy, medium-sized dog – perfect for those looking for a loyal companion who will become a wonderful friend with patience and love. 💛 Zico is waiting to finally find his Forever Home. Who will give him the chance he deserves?

DE·Show original

ein sanfter kleiner Kerl auf der Suche nach Geborgenheit 🐾 Zico ist ein etwa 4 Jahre alter Rüde (geb. 09/2021), der derzeit noch in Rumänien auf seine Chance wartet. Als er in die Auffangstation kam, war er zunächst schüchtern und zurückhaltend. Mit der Zeit hat er jedoch Vertrauen zu seinen Pflegern gefasst und genießt inzwischen ihre Nähe und Zuwendung. In einem neuen Zuhause wird Zico sicherlich eine Eingewöhnungszeit brauchen – hier sind Geduld und Einfühlungsvermögen gefragt. Er zeigt keinerlei Aggression und hat auch nie versucht, aus Angst zu schnappen. Wenn er unsicher ist, zieht er sich lieber zurück und versteckt sich vor unbekannten Menschen. Sobald er Vertrauen gefasst hat, taut er langsam auf und zeigt seine liebe, sanfte Seite. Zico versteht sich gut mit anderen Hunden – ein souveräner Hundekumpel wäre für ihn eine große Unterstützung. Auch mit Katzen hat er keine Probleme. Da Zico Zeit und Ruhe braucht, um sich einzuleben, wünschen wir uns für ihn ein ruhiges Zuhause ohne kleine Kinder. Mit einer Schulterhöhe von ca. 32 cm und einem Gewicht von 12 kg ist er ein handlicher, mittelgroßer Hund – perfekt für alle, die einen treuen Begleiter suchen, der mit Geduld und Liebe zu einem wunderbaren Freund wird. 💛 Zico wartet darauf, endlich sein Für-immer-Zuhause zu finden. Wer schenkt ihm die Chance, die er verdient?

About Zico

What life with Zico looks like

Zico is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Notfellchen Rumänien 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. Animals leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with a valid EU pet passport. Adoption fees usually fall between €250 and €450, covering veterinary preparation.
