Izzie (Iskar)

Pointer · Female · Puppy · 8 months

Iskar is a young Pointer female who still needs to learn that the world and the people in it are not frightening. With other dogs, Iskar is social and tolerant. In dealing with people, she is currently still anxious and reserved. She shows no aggression. For Iskar, we wish for a quiet, understanding home with people who can give her the necessary security with patience, time, and empathy. She should be allowed to build trust at her own pace. Who would like to show this young female how beautiful a loving and safe dog life can be? If you are seriously interested, we look forward to your message. We will report again.

07.08.2026 Iskar ist eine junge Pointer-Hündin, die noch lernen muss, dass die Welt und die Menschen darin nichts beängstigendes sind. Mit anderen Hunden ist Iskar sozial und verträglich. Im Umgang mit Menschen zeigt sie sich momentan noch ängstlich und zurückhaltend. Für Iskar wünschen wir uns ein ruhiges, verständnisvolles Zuhause bei Menschen, die ihr mit Geduld, Zeit und Einfühlungsvermögen die nötige Sicherheit geben. Sie soll in ihrem eigenen Tempo Vertrauen aufbauen dürfen. Wer möchte dieser jungen Hündin zeigen, wie schön ein liebevolles und sicheres Hundeleben sein kann? Bei ernsthaftem Interesse freuen wir uns über eine Nachricht. Wir berichten wieder.

About Izzie (Iskar)

What life with Izzie (Iskar) looks like

Izzie (Iskar) is a puppy/kitten pointer dog waiting at Tierhilfe Arme Pfoten in Arme Pfoten.

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 Izzie (Iskar), answered.

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