Bolt &#8211

Mixed Breed · Unknown

Bolt comes from a friend animal rescuer who, due to family reasons following a separation, must shrink her sanctuary for various homeless animals. Reluctantly, she must now part ways with a few of her dogs, but they can stay on-site until they find a new home. Bolt is people-oriented, friendly, and has a gentle and good-natured personality. He has a typical prey drive for his breed, gets along well with fellow animals, but dislikes cats. Bolt would be ideal for a family with dog-experienced people who can support him without overwhelming him and where he can be adopted as a family member – preferably also as a second dog. Bolt is vaccinated, microchipped, and will be rehomed for an adoption fee of CHF 650.–.

Bolt stammt von einer befreundeten Tierschützerin, die aus familiären Gründen nach einer Trennung ihren Gnadenhof für verschiedene heimatlose Tiere verkleinern muss. Schweren Herzens muss sie sich nun von ein paar ihrer Hunde trennen, sie dürfen aber noch vor Ort bleiben, bis sie ein neues Zuhause gefunden haben. Bolt ist menschenbezogen, freundlich und hat einen sanften und gutmütigen Charakter. Er hat einen seiner Rasse entsprechend einen Jagdtrieb, versteht sich gut mit Artgenossen, mag aber keine Katzen. Gerne auch zu einer Familie mit hundeerfahrenen Menschen, die ihn fördern, aber nicht überfordern und wo er als Familienmitglied – gerne auch als Zweithund – adoptiert wird. Bolt ist geimpft, gechippt, und wird gegen eine Schutzgebühr von CHF 650.– vermittelt. Im Rahmen einer Fremdplatzierung geschieht die

About Bolt &#8211

What life with Bolt &#8211 looks like

Bolt &#8211 is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzbund Basel Regional.

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 Bolt &#8211, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Bolt &#8211?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutzbund Basel Regional handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Bolt &#8211 on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Bolt &#8211 if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutzbund Basel Regional 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 Bolt &#8211 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 Bolt &#8211 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 Tierschutzbund Basel Regional early rather than rehoming privately; they know Bolt &#8211 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.
