Bubba

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 2 years

Bubba is a young, active, and eager-to-learn American Staffordshire Terrier. He loves exercise, walks well on a leash, knows many commands, and enjoys accompanying his primary caregiver on runs or bike rides. In the house, he is usually calm and cuddly when the environment suits him. Dogs usually meet him with friendliness, though sometimes with a bit of enthusiasm. With cats, he shows compatibility after getting used to them. The behavioral assessment was easily passed. Unfortunately, it has become clear in his current family that Bubba struggles with too much chaos. He is particularly unsettled by children and sometimes by male trusted individuals. Therefore, Bubba is looking for a quiet home with dog-experienced people, without children or other animals (due to his pronounced prey drive). He needs time, clear leadership, and a stable environment to settle in fully. The new owner must be willing to work with him a lot. If you can provide this, he will become a great companion.

DE·Show original

Bubba ist ein junger, aktiver und lernfreudiger American Staffordshire Terrier. Er liebt Bewegung, läuft gut an der Leine, kennt viele Kommandos und begleitet seine Bezugsperson gerne beim Joggen oder Fahrradfahren. Auch im Haus zeigt er sich ruhig und verschmust, wenn die Umgebung passt. Hunde begegnet er meist freundlich, wenn auch manchmal etwas stürmisch. Bei Katzen zeigt er sich nach Eingewöhnung verträglich. Den Wesenstest hat er problemlos bestanden. Leider hat sich in seiner aktuellen Familie gezeigt, dass Bubba mit zu viel Trubel nicht zurechtkommt. Besonders Kinder und teils männliche Bezugspersonen verunsichern ihn stark. Deshalb sucht Bubba ein ruhiges Zuhause bei hundeerfahrenen Menschen, ohne Kinder oder andere Tiere (ausgeprägter Jagdtrieb). Er braucht Zeit, eine klare Führung und eine stabile Umgebung, um ganz ankommen zu können. Der neue Besitzer muss gewillt sein, viel mit ihm zu arbeiten. Wenn man ihm dies bieten kann, dann wird er zu einem richtig tollen Begleiter. Kontakt: Fam Scherrer:

About Bubba

What life with Bubba looks like

Bubba is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Stiftung Tierheim Nesslau in Nesslau.

An young 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 Bubba, answered.

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