Bacio-2

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

Native Country: Hungary Bacio, a once affectionate but unfortunately very neglected and matted dog, was found wandering homeless in the village of Nagykörös on March 30, 2026, and was fortunately reported to loving people at the Menhely shelter. He was neither microchipped nor reported missing, which is probably for the best, as care and nurturing seem like foreign concepts to his former owners. His quarantine period has ended, and Bacio is on the lookout for a loving "forever home." Once the nights get a bit warmer, Bacio will be groomed. At first, Bacio was a bit intimidated by his new living situation, with so many dogs, strangers, and noise… But he has thankfully settled in and is trying to make the best of it. He has also understood that at the Menhely, no one means him any harm. However, Bacio is not a 0815 dog and is not always easy. He was probably often on his own, had to make decisions for himself. And he still wants to do that today, and if something doesn’t suit him, he knows how to show it. Perhaps he just needs a bit more time. We can’t change his past, but his future means a lot to us. Bacio is an active, friendly, and cheerful dog who, however, needs a clear but loving guidance and rules, nothing more than what any other dog needs, to ensure a harmonious coexistence. Bacio’s fellow animals don’t find him so great at the moment. Perhaps he just needs a bit more time and will be retested at a later point. An update will follow. (As of April 20, 2026) For our character dog Bacio, we are looking for loving and dog-experienced humans who can love Bacio as he is, handle his “quirks,” and give him a long, happy, and carefree dog life. Let them take the decisions for him, provide a framework in which he can develop, and understand and read dogs. Bacio deserves the chance to be a valued friend to humans and to make up for all the things he would love to learn: dog training classes, mental and physical stimulation, fun walks, security, love, safety, and full family integration. Who will be Bacio’s true companion through thick and thin? Bacio can travel starting around mid/end of May 2026, if he finds a home or a foster home.

Ursprungsland: Ungarn Der herzige, aber leider sehr verwahrloste und verfilzte Bacio wurde am 30.3.2026 in der Ortschaft Nagykörös herrenlos umherirrend gefunden und zum Glück von lieben Menschen dem Menhely gemeldet. Er war weder gechipt, noch hat ihn jemand als vermisst gemeldet, was wohl besser so ist, denn Pflege und Fürsorge scheinen Fremdwörter für seine ehemaligen Besitzer zu sein. Seine Quarantänezeit ist um und Bacio auf der Suche nach einem liebevollen „Für-immer-Zuhause“. Sobald die Nächte auch etwas wärmer werden, wird Bacio geschoren. Am Anfang war Bacio etwas eingeschüchtert von seiner neuen Lebenssituation, so viele Hunde, fremde Menschen, der Lärm… Aber er hat sich zum Glück gefasst und versucht, das Beste daraus zu machen. Auch hat er verstanden, dass im Menhely ihm niemand was böses will. Doch er ist kein 0815 Hund und nicht immer einfach. Vermutlich war er oft auf sich alleine gestellt, musste für sich selber Entscheidungen treffen. Und das möchte er heute noch und wenn ihm was nicht passt, weiss er das zu zeigen. Vielleicht braucht er einfach noch etwas mehr Zeit. Seine eine Vergangenheit können wir nicht mehr ändern, aber seine Zukunft liegt uns sehr am Herzen. Bacio ist ein aktiver, netter und fröhlicher Hund, welcher jedoch zwingend eine klare, aber liebevolle Führung braucht und Regeln, an welche er sich halten muss, eigentlich nichts anderes, als wie bei jedem anderen Hund auch, damit ein harmonisches Zusammenleben funktioniert. Seine Artgenossen findet Bacio zur Zeit nicht so toll. Vielleicht braucht er auch da einfach noch etwas mehr Zeit und wird werden zu einem späteren Zeitpunkt erneut testen. Ein Update wird folgen. (Stand 20.4.2026) Für unseren Charakterhund Bacio suchen wir liebe und hundeerfahrene Zweibeiner, welche Bacio so lieben wie er ist, seine « Marotten» zu händeln wissen und ihm ein langes, glückliches und sorgloses Hundeleben schenken. Für ihn die Entscheidungen abnehmen, ihm einen Rahmen bieten, in dem er sich entwickeln kann und Hunde lesen können und verstehen. Bacio hat die Chance verdient, als geschätzter Freund zu Menschen zu ziehen und all das nachzuholen, was er so gerne kennen lernen würde: Hundeschule, geistige und körperliche Auslastung, vergnügte Spaziergänge, Geborgenheit, Liebe, Sicherheit und vollen Familienanschluss. Wer geht mit Bacio durch dick und dünn? Bacio ist reisefertig.

About Bacio-2

What life with Bacio-2 looks like

Bacio-2 is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Animal Happyend in Animal Happyend.

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 Switzerland

Swiss shelters require a home visit (Platzkontrolle) and proof of suitable accommodation. Cantons each have their own additional dog-keeping requirements (e.g. SKN training in some areas). Animals leave sterilized and chipped.

Frequently asked

Adopting Bacio-2, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Bacio-2?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Animal Happyend handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Bacio-2 on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Bacio-2 if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Animal Happyend 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 Bacio-2 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 Bacio-2 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 Animal Happyend early rather than rehoming privately; they know Bacio-2 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.
