How do I contact the shelter about Grace &#8211?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutzbund Basel Regional handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Grace &#8211 on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Grace &#8211 if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutzbund Basel Regional 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 Grace &#8211 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 Grace &#8211 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 Tierschutzbund Basel Regional early rather than rehoming privately; they know Grace &#8211 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.

Grace &#8211

Galgo Español · Female · Senior · 12 years

Report from Grisette Dog Pension in the Swiss Jura: GRACE, once useful for a Spanish hunter but now too old to produce more "Galgo lisos" or go hunting, has landed with Spanish animal welfare workers and has been with us in the pension since June, until a new home is found. She is a very friendly, open female dog who has shown no fears so far. She also behaves well on walks, and traffic and other street conditions do not bother her. GRACE's diary with more photos, videos, and information can be found on our homepage: www.grisette.ch. If you would like to meet GRACE informally and offer her a suitable home, we would be happy if you request our informal application form: if you leave a message on our answering machine, we will call you back, or you can email us at info@grisette.ch. GRACE is vaccinated, microchipped, neutered, tested for Mediterranean diseases, and duty-free. She is available for 600.– after prior arrangement. GRACE, Breed: Galgo Español, Born: October 12, 2015, Height: 62 cm. Cat compatibility: not yet tested. Child compatibility: suitable from age 12. Suitable as a second dog: yes. More information:

About Grace &#8211

What life with Grace &#8211 looks like

Grace &#8211 is a medium-sized senior galgo español dog waiting at Tierschutzbund Basel Regional.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇨🇭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.
