Bucky

Mixed Breed · Unknown

Bucky is looking for a new home because his former human sadly passed away in a accident half a year ago. He is currently living with the mother of the deceased on Mallorca. However, since she is already over seventy but Bucky is still very young, she can no longer meet his needs and must reluctantly give him up. Bucky is very people-oriented. He is upright, friendly, and interested. He gets along well with fellow animals and also enjoys the company of children. Because of his loving and warm personality, we assume he would also get along with cats. Bucky needs loving people who will adopt him as a family member and actively include him in their daily lives. A family with children would be great too. Bucky is vaccinated, microchipped, and ready for rehoming. If you are interested in our dogs and would like to meet them without obligation, please apply using the button below, and we will get in touch with you as soon as possible. We appreciate your understanding if it takes a little longer to process your inquiry. We do our best to respond as soon as possible. However, it may happen that we receive many inquiries at once or that our resources are temporarily needed elsewhere.

Bucky sucht ein neues Zuhause, weil sein ehemaliger Mensch vor einem halben Jahr bei einem Unfall leider tödlich verunglückt ist. Er lebt aktuell bei der Mutter des Verstorbenen auf Mallorca. Weil sie aber bereits über siebzig, aber Bucky noch sehr jung ist, kann sie seinen Bedürfnissen nicht gerecht werden und muss ihn schweren Herzens abgeben. Bucky ist sehr menschenbezogen. Er ist aufgestellt, freundlich und interessiert. Er versteht sich gut mit Artgenossen und mag auch Kinder gerne. Weil er so einen lieben und herzlichen Charakter hat gehen wir davon aus, dass er sich auch mit Katzen verstehen würde. Bucky braucht liebe Menschen, die ihn als Familienmitglied adoptieren und ihn aktiv in den Alltag mit einbinden. Gerne auch eine Familie mit Kindern. Bucky wird geimpft, gechippt, mit Schutzvertrag und gegen eine Schutzgebühr von CHF 600.– vermittelt. Falls Sie Interesse an unseren Hunden haben und sie unverbindlich kennenlernen möchten, bewerben Sie sich mit untenstehenden Button und wir werden uns baldmöglichst mit Ihnen in Verbindung setzen. Wir danken für Ihr Verständnis, falls die Bearbeitung Ihrer Anfrage etwas länger dauert. Wir setzen alles daran, so bald wie möglich eine Rückmeldung zu geben. Es kann aber vorkommen, dass sehr viele Anfragen zusammenkommen oder dass unsere Ressourcen temporär dringend anderweitig gebraucht werden.

About Bucky

What life with Bucky looks like

Bucky is a medium-sized 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 Bucky, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Bucky?
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 Bucky on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Bucky 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 Bucky 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 Bucky 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 Bucky 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.
