Bandit

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 5 months

Hi, I am Bandit. I am a little boy who was found living on the streets. At such a young age, life outside was not the safest place for me, but thankfully, I was rescued and brought to Dog Rose. Now I am safe, cared for and waiting for a loving family who will give me the chance to grow up in a happy home. I am a wonderfully playful, friendly and confident puppy. I love discovering new things, exploring my surroundings and enjoying all the little adventures that come with being young. I am good with dogs, cats and children, so I could fit beautifully into many different kinds of families. When I am fully grown, I am expected to be medium-sized. I also have a normal tail. I could happily live in the city or the countryside, as long as my family gives me opportunities to play, explore, learn and enjoy life together. I am still a young puppy, so I will need patience, guidance and plenty of love as I grow. I am Bandit, a cheerful little boy with a confident personality and a whole lifetime of adventures ahead of me. My story started on the streets, but I hope the best part will begin when someone opens their heart and gives me a forever home.

About Bandit

What life with Bandit looks like

Bandit is a medium-sized puppy mixed breed dog waiting at The Dog Rose) in Dogrose.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇨🇭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 Bandit, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Bandit?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. The Dog Rose) handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Bandit on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Bandit if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — The Dog Rose) 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Bandit 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 Bandit 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 The Dog Rose) early rather than rehoming privately; they know Bandit 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 (EN). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically.
