Bamba

Galgo Español · Female · Adult · 6 years

April 24, 2026 Welcome to Switzerland, dear Bamba. Bamba is a wonderful Galgo female dog, and I understand why so many people who have adopted a Galgo are eager to have another one. These are enchanting beings; their gait and behavior remind one more of elves than of dogs. We are delighted with the delicate and very friendly Bamba. She seeks contact with humans and meets fellow animals with friendliness. On April 10, 2026, Bamba belonged to a hunter who no longer had any use for her. Fortunately, he brought her to APA Puppy Bilbao. She has a friendly and open nature and meets humans with openness. Bamba gets along wonderfully with other dogs and shows consistently social behavior. Bamba once had a so-called blutooth, which is believed to have been caused by an ear infection, so that ear is now a bit knobbly. In the meantime, her ears are okay, and otherwise, the lovely female dog is doing well. Who will offer the endearing Galgo a loving home forever?

24.05.2026 Herzlich willkommen in der Schweiz, liebe Bamba. Bamba ist eine wunderbare Galgo-Hündin und ich verstehe, warum so viele Menschen, welche sich einmal für einen Galgo entschieden haben, unbedingt wieder einen Galgo haben möchten. Es sind bezaubernde Wesen, ihr Gang und ihr Verhalten erinnern eher an Elfen als an Hunde. Wir sind entzückt von der zarten und sehr freundlichen Bamba. Sie sucht den Kontakt zum Menschen und sie begegnet Artgenossen stets freundlich. 10.04.2026 Bamba gehörte einem Jäger und er hatte keine Verwendung mehr für sie. Zum Glück hat er sie zu APA Puppy Bilbao gebracht. Sie hat ein freundliches und offenes Wesen und begegnet den Menschen gegenüber aufgeschlossen. Mit anderen Hunden versteht sich Bamba wunderbar und zeigt ein durchweg soziales Verhalten. Bamba hatte einmal ein so genanntes Blutohr, welches vermutlich durch eine Ohrenentzünding entstanden ist, darum ist das eine Ohr nun etwas knorpelig. In der Zwischenzeit sind ihre Ohren aber wieder okay und auch sonst geht es der lieben Hündin gut. Wer bietet der liebenswürdigen Galga ein liebevolles Zuhause für immer?

About Bamba

What life with Bamba looks like

Bamba is a adult galgo español dog waiting at Tierhilfe Arme Pfoten in Arme Pfoten.

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 Bamba, answered.

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