Grincs-2

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 9 months

Ursprungsland: Hungary Grincs was found abandoned in the village of Nagykörös on November 28, 2025, and reported to the animal shelter. His start in life could have been much better, but he’s already unwanted and rejected. While the animal shelter isn’t the ideal place, he has the chance to become a beloved family member. Grincs is playful, curious, and friendly, sometimes a bit shy in new situations, and always ready for a prank. He’s becoming more lively and curious every day, with so much to discover. He’s still very green and his new humans should take joy in teaching him everything a puppy needs to know for a future life as a family dog. Similarly, new owners should be aware that young puppies bring a lot of joy but also a lot of work and responsibility to develop into great companions. Grincs gets along well with his fellow animals and loves playing and roughhousing with them. We are looking for a loving and responsible home for Grincs, where he can enjoy extended and varied walks, adjusted to his age, with enough quiet phases, where he is adequately exercised for dogs and his age, and where he gets plenty of cuddles. Then, a visit to dog training classes and full family integration, and he can finally take off. Grincs is currently too young for castration, which must be done by the new owners when he is old enough. His estimated end size is 45-55cm and end weight is 12-20kg. On December 18, 2025, Grincs was 28cm and 5.8kg. On January 13, 2026, Grincs was 34cm and 8.1kg. Update from the foster home on February 6, 2026: Grincs is a true picture-book puppy: playful, curious, sometimes a bit wild and wonderfully clumsy. He is very clingy and shows great friendliness towards people, including children. He especially loves cuddling and being close to us. Despite his young age, Grincs finds his way to rest and sleeps – puppy-like – a lot. He even sleeps through the night reliably. He has integrated into our existing pack without any problems and gets along well with all the dogs. Outdoors, he shows some insecurity at times, but with loving support and gentle encouragement, he quickly gains courage and begins to explore the big wide world curiously. His encounters with other dogs are friendly, and he invites them to play after a short time. Grincs is a wonderful, young, and eager-to-learn little guy. We wish for a family that patiently and lovingly shows Grincs the world and gives him a secure home.

Ursprungsland: Ungarn Grincs wurde in der Ortschaft Nagykörös ausgesetzt gefunden und am 28.11.2025 dem Tierheim gemeldet. Noch nicht lange auf der Welt und schon unerwünscht und verstossen, der Start ins Leben hätte schöner sein können. Auch wenn das Tierheim nicht der richtige Ort ist, hat er die Chance, auf ein Leben als geliebtes Familienmitglied. Grincs ist welpentypisch verspielt, neugierig, kontaktfreudig, in neuen Situationen auch mal schüchtern und zu jedem Schabernack bereit. Täglich wird er munterer und neugieriger, viel gibt es zu entdecken. Er ist noch ganz grün hinter den Ohren und seine neuen Menschen sollten Freude daran haben, ihnen alles liebevoll beizubringen, was so ein Hundekind für sein späteres Leben als Familienhund wissen muss. Ebenso sollten sich die neuen Besitzer bewusst sein, dass Junghunde nebst viel Freude auch jede Menge Arbeit und Verantwortung mit sich bringen, damit sie sich zu tollen Begleitern entwickeln können. Mit seinen Artgenossen hat Grincs keine Probleme und liebt es, mit ihnen zu spielen und zu toben. Für Grincs suchen wir ein liebevolles und verantwortungsvolles Zuhause, wo er nebst viel Spass und Action ausgedehnte und abwechslungsreiche Spaziergänge geniesst , natürlich dem Alter angepasst, wo er genügend Ruhephasen bekommt, wo er hunde- und altersgerecht ausgelastet wird und täglich viele Streicheleinheiten bekommt. Dann noch der Besuch einer Hundeschule und vollen Familienanschluss und er kann endlich durchstarten. Grincs ist aktuell noch zu jung für eine Kastration, die muss von den neuen Besitzern nachgeholt werden, wenn er alt genug ist. Endgrösse von 45-55cm und Endgewicht von 12-20kg sind nur geschätzt. Am 18.12.2025 ist Grincs 28cm und 5,8kg Am 13.01.2026 ist Grincs 34cm und 8.1kg. Update von der Pflegestelle vom 06.02.2026: Grincs ist ein echter Bilderbuch-Welpe: verspielt, neugierig, manchmal noch ein bisschen wild und herrlich tollpatschig. Er ist sehr anhänglich und zeigt sich Menschen wie auch Kindern gegenüber ausgesprochen freundlich. Besonders liebt er es zu kuscheln und einfach in unserer Nähe zu sein. Trotz seines jungen Alters findet Grincs bereits gut zur Ruhe und schläft – welpentypisch – noch sehr viel. Auch nachts schläft er zuverlässig durch. In unser bestehendes Rudel hat er sich problemlos integriert und versteht sich mit allen Hunden bestens. Draussen zeigt er sich stellenweise noch etwas unsicher, doch mit liebevoller Unterstützung und gutem Zureden fasst er schnell Mut und beginnt, die grosse weite Welt neugierig zu erkunden. Begegnungen mit anderen Hunden meistert er freundlich und lädt sie nach kurzer Zeit gerne zum Spielen ein. Grincs ist ein ganz wunderbarer, junger und lernwilliger kleiner Kerl. Für ihn wünschen wir uns eine Familie, die ihm geduldig und liebevoll die Welt zeigt und ihm ein geborgenes Zuhause schenkt.

About Grincs-2

What life with Grincs-2 looks like

Grincs-2 is a small puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Animal Happyend in Animal Happyend.

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 Grincs-2, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Grincs-2?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Animal Happyend handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Grincs-2 on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Grincs-2 if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Animal Happyend 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 Grincs-2 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 Grincs-2 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 Animal Happyend early rather than rehoming privately; they know Grincs-2 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.
