Chica

Mixed Breed · Female

I live in the animal shelter today for a sad reason. I was not abandoned and not simply given away. My owner recently passed away, and so my life suddenly changed a lot. Together with my mother, I came to the animal shelter. I wish for people again to whom I can belong. A family where I can arrive, experience closeness and have a fixed place in life again. Maybe there is someone out there who has exactly this place free for me. I would be very happy about a personal inquiry. Chica is still looking for a sponsor / sponsor! Account details...

Dass ich heute im Tierheim lebe, hat einen traurigen Grund. Ich wurde nicht ausgesetzt und auch nicht einfach weggegeben. Mein Besitzer ist vor kurzem verstorben, und so hat sich mein Leben plötzlich stark verändert. Gemeinsam mit meiner Mutter kam ich ins Tierheim. Ich wünsche mir wieder Menschen, zu denen ich gehören darf. Eine Familie, bei der ich ankommen kann, Nähe erleben darf und wieder einen festen Platz im Leben habe. Vielleicht gibt es da draußen jemanden, der genau diesen Platz für mich frei hat. Über eine persönliche Anfrage würde ich mich sehr freuen. Chica sucht noch eine Patin / einen Paten! Kontodaten . .

About Chica

What life with Chica looks like

Chica is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Stiftung vergessene Hunde in Vergessene Hunde.

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 Chica, answered.

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