Cotton

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 4 months

Hi, I am Cotton. I was rescued from Lola Shelter, where I was given a second chance at life. Thanks to the kindness of the people who saved me, I am now safe at The Dog Rose in Romania, waiting for a family to call my own. I am a cute boy and I will grow into a small to medium-sized dog. My mother weighs around 9–10 kg. She is slim with long legs, and I will likely have a similar build. I am sweet, cuddly and love being close to people. I get along very well with children, dogs and cats, making me a wonderful companion for many different families. Whether you live in the city or in the countryside, I will happily adapt as long as I am surrounded by love and included in your daily life. I have a normal tail, a gentle personality and a heart full of affection. Now I am just waiting for my forever family to find me and give me the loving home I have been dreaming of.

About Cotton

What life with Cotton looks like

Cotton is a medium-sized puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at The Dog Rose) in Dogrose.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇨🇭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 Cotton, answered.

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