How do I contact the shelter about Dino?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Glückshunde Schweiz handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Dino on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Dino if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Glückshunde 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 Dino 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 Dino 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 Glückshunde Schweiz early rather than rehoming privately; they know Dino 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.

Dino

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 8 months

Dino is now named Lei and has been living since late May on her foster home, making great progress every day. Now, the lovable male dog is ready to find his own people. Lei is a friendly, sensitive dog who gets along well with both other dogs and cats. On a leash, he already walks nicely, and he also masters car rides without much trouble. With people he trusts, he shows his particularly affectionate side: he is clingy, cuddly, and enjoys the proximity of his trusted people very much. When meeting strangers and new situations, Lei is still uncertain. Certain environmental influences make him sometimes afraid, and he needs time to build trust and gain security. However, he always remains friendly. With patience, understanding, and loving guidance, he will learn step by step to discover the world more calmly. Lei is an alert and eager-to-learn dog with great potential. He brings energy and joy, and once he has developed more self-confidence, he will surely look forward to shared activities like walks, hikes, running, or other adventures. He wants to explore the world and is looking for people who will accompany and support him on this journey. His final height is estimated to be around 55cm / final weight around 20kg. For Lei, we wish for a home with sensitive people who appreciate his sensitive nature and give him the time he needs. An independent only dog would be a beautiful support for him, but it is not a prerequisite. Lei can be met in the Canton of Zurich. Anyone who would like to give this special dog a loving home is welcome to contact us.

Dino heisst jetzt Lei und lebt seit Ende Mai auf seiner Pflegestelle und macht dort jeden Tag tolle Fortschritte. Nun ist der liebenswerte Rüde bereit, seine eigenen Menschen zu finden. Lei ist ein freundlicher, sensibler Hund, der sich sowohl mit anderen Hunden als auch mit Katzen gut versteht. An der Leine läuft er bereits schön mit und auch Autofahrten meistert er problemlos. Bei Menschen, denen er vertraut, zeigt er seine besonders liebevolle Seite: Er ist anhänglich, verschmust und geniesst die Nähe seiner Bezugspersonen sehr. Fremden Menschen und neuen Situationen begegnet Lei noch mit Unsicherheit. Bestimmte Umwelteinflüsse machen ihm teilweise Angst und er braucht Zeit, um Sicherheit zu gewinnen. Dabei bleibt er jedoch immer freundlich. Mit Geduld, Verständnis und einer liebevollen Führung wird er Schritt für Schritt lernen, die Welt entspannter zu entdecken. Lei ist ein aufgeweckter und lernfreudiger Hund mit viel Potenzial. Er bringt Energie und Lebensfreude mit und wird sich, sobald er mehr Selbstvertrauen entwickelt hat, sicher über gemeinsame Aktivitäten wie Spaziergänge, Wanderungen oder andere Abenteuer freuen. Er möchte die Welt entdecken und sucht Menschen, die ihn auf diesem Weg begleiten und fördern.Seine Endgrösse schätzen wir auf ca. 55cm / Endgewicht ca. 20kg. Für Lei wünschen wir uns ein Zuhause bei einfühlsamen Menschen, die seine sensible Art schätzen und ihm die Zeit geben, die er braucht. Ein souveräner Ersthund wäre für ihn eine schöne Unterstützung, ist aber keine Voraussetzung. Lei kann im Kanton Zürich kennengelernt werden. Wer diesem besonderen Hund ein liebevolles Zuhause schenken möchte, darf sich gerne bei uns melden.

About Dino

What life with Dino looks like

Dino is a puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Glückshunde Schweiz in Glueckshunde.

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.
