Adopt Cooper

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 2 years

Cooper (reserved) Male, travels neutered, born around February 1, 2024. Border Collie mixed breed. Height around 53 cm / Weight around 20 kg. Care placement in Spain: Refugio Amposta. From Perrera in Vinaros, the young male dog Cooper was allowed to move into Monika's Refugio on February 28, 2026. The handsome fellow is very people-oriented and likes to lay at everyone's feet to be belly-rubbed. He also gets along well with the other dogs in the mixed pack. Unfortunately, we do not know what the handsome fellow has experienced in his life so far, but he is always friendly and can be touched without any problems anywhere. For the cuddly Cooper, we are looking for active people who want to work with him in dog sports and can also physically challenge him. The necessary patience and time for a dog from animal welfare should also be brought by Cooper's people. He should learn the whole dog ABC lovingly but consistently and be introduced to environmental stimuli. Cuddle sessions should not be lacking either. If you want to give the agile male dog a chance at a forever home, then feel free to contact us via email.

Cooper (reserviert) Männlich, reist kastriert Geboren ca. 01.02.2024 Border Collie Mischling Höhe ca. 53 cm / Gewicht ca. 20 kgPflegestelle Spanien: Refugio AmpostaAus der Perrera in Vinaros durfte am 28. Februar 2026 der junge Rüde Cooper in Monikas Refugio Einzug halten. Der hübsche Kerl zeigt sich überaus menschenbezogen und legt sich am liebsten gleich jedem zu Füssen um am Bauch gekrault zu werden. Auch mit den anderen Hunden im gemischten Rudel versteht er sich gut. Was der Schönling in seinem Leben bisher erlebt hat wissen wir leider nicht, er zeigt sich jedoch stets freundlich und lässt sich überall ohne Probleme anfassen.Für den verschmusten Cooper suchen wir aktive Menschen, die mit ihm im Hundesport arbeiten möchten und ihn auch körperlich auslasten können. Auch die nötige Geduld und Zeit für einen Hund aus dem Tierschutz sollten Coopers Menschen mitbringen. Er sollte liebevoll aber konsequent das ganze Hunde ABC lernen dürfen und an Umweltreize herangeführt werden. Auch Kuschelstunden dürfen bei ihm nicht zu kurz kommen. Möchtest du dem agilen Rüden eine Chance auf ein für immer zu Hause geben, dann melde dich doch gerne bei uns per Email.

About Cooper

What life with Cooper looks like

Cooper is a large young adult mixed breed dog waiting at ANDANA Pfotenhilfe Schweiz in Switzerland.

An young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 Cooper, answered.

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