Vinny is a clever, sensitive little terrier mix. He loves being the centre of attention and wants to play, cuddle and belong, but he can also keep himself busy on his own.

Vinny is a clever, sensitive little terrier mix. He is a small 38 cm and weighs 8 kg. Vinny is neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.

For three years (as of 10/2026) he has been living in Germany with his family in Bergisch Gladbach. Now, with a heavy heart, he has to leave, because he does not cope with small children and another baby is on the way. Vinny reacts jealously, not out of malice, but because he loves "his" people so much. Teenagers, on the other hand, are no problem. His family is not giving him up lightly; they love him very much.

Vinny loves being the centre of attention. He wants to play, cuddle and belong. His eyes light up when you give him attention. Even so, he can also keep himself busy on his own: he is not a dog who constantly demands, but one who simply wants to enjoy being close.

Walks go wonderfully when he is out on his own. In groups of dogs he becomes insecure and barks; sometimes the world is simply a bit too much for him. That is why he is looking for a quiet home as an only dog, where he can settle in.

His small body bears traces of the past. An old problem in his back causes tension, and his tail was probably broken at some point. His past in Romania was probably not easy. And yet he has kept his trust.

Vinny is looking for a person who understands him, and a home without small children where he can be fully a dog, a home for life. Could it be with you?
