Fina

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy · 8 months

Fina was rescued in May 2026 along with her sister from the euthanasia station just a few hundred meters from our shelter run by Rodica. Unfortunately, we know nothing about Fina's past. Whether she ever had a home or had to fight for survival on the streets, we cannot say. What is certain, however, is that she now has the chance for a new beginning. At the shelter, Fina is finally safe and is gradually experiencing that there are people she can trust. Now she only needs the greatest happiness: a family of her own that gives her time, love and security. We very much hope that Fina will soon be able to pack her bags and move into a loving home where she will be loved and enjoy the carefree dog life she so deserves. Is Fina your heart dog? Then we look forward to your application.

Fina wurde im Mai 2026 zusammen mit ihrer Schwester aus der Tötungsstation gerettet, die sich nur wenige hundert Meter vom Shelter unserer Tierschützerin Rodica entfernt befindet. Über Finas Vergangenheit wissen wir leider nichts. Ob sie einmal ein Zuhause hatte oder auf der Strasse ums Überleben kämpfen musste, können wir nicht sagen. Sicher ist jedoch, dass sie nun die Chance auf einen Neuanfang bekommen hat. Im Shelter ist Fina endlich in Sicherheit und erlebt nach und nach, dass es Menschen gibt, denen sie vertrauen kann. Jetzt fehlt ihr nur noch das grösste Glück: eine eigene Familie, die ihr Zeit, Liebe und Geborgenheit schenkt. Wir hoffen sehr, dass Fina schon bald ihr Köfferchen packen darf und in ein liebevolles Zuhause ziehen kann, in dem sie geliebt wird und das unbeschwerte Hundeleben geniessen darf, das sie so sehr verdient. Ist Fina deine Herzenshündin? Dann freuen wir uns sehr auf deine Bewerbung.

About Fina

What life with Fina looks like

Fina is a medium-sized 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Fina, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Fina?
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 Fina on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Fina 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 Fina 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 Fina 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 Fina 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.
