Canberra

Female

Canberra arrived at the shelter with five other bearded dragons in very poor condition. Her condition was particularly critical. Fortunately, she is slowly recovering and making progress step by step. Canberra has a neurological disorder that manifests itself, among other things, through a slight head wobble. Despite her limitations, she is a lovable bearded dragon with her own unique character. We are looking for a single place for Canberra without food competition, where she can live and eat in peace. She doesn't particularly like being picked up, but can still be picked up easily and without difficulty. We wish for Canberra a quiet, understanding home where her special needs are taken into account and she gets the time she needs for her further recovery. According to the animal welfare law, the terrarium must have a minimum size of 140cm x 80cm x 60cm.

Canberra kam gemeinsam mit fünf weiteren Bartagamen in einem sehr schlechten Zustand zu uns. Ihr Zustand war dabei besonders kritisch. Glücklicherweise erholt sie sich mittlerweile langsam und macht Schritt für Schritt Fortschritte. Canberra hat eine neurologische Störung, die sich unter anderem durch ein leichtes Kopfwackeln äussert. Trotz ihrer Einschränkung ist sie eine liebenswerte Bartagame, die ihren ganz eigenen Charakter hat. Für Canberra suchen wir einen Einzelplatz ohne Futterkonkurrenz, an dem sie in Ruhe leben und fressen kann. Sie mag es nicht besonders, auf die Hand genommen zu werden, lässt sich aber dennoch problemlos und ohne Schwierigkeiten aufnehmen. Wir wünschen uns für Canberra ein ruhiges, verständnisvolles Zuhause, in dem auf ihre besonderen Bedürfnisse Rücksicht genommen wird und sie die Zeit bekommt, die sie für ihre weitere Erholung braucht. Das Terrarium muss laut Tierschutzgesetz eine Mindestgrösse von 140cm x 80cm x 60cm haben.

About Canberra

What life with Canberra looks like

Canberra is a adult animal waiting at Stiftung Tierschutzzentrum Thurgau in Switzerland.

Every animal has their own temperament and history. The shelter knows Canberra far better than any listing can convey — ask about daily routine, ideal household, and what kind of adopter they're hoping for.

🇨🇭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 Canberra, answered.

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