Adopt Iuly

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 3 years

In mid-February, Rodica received word that dogs and cats were living in poor conditions on a neglected piece of land. Upon arrival, it turned out that an older woman lived there, who meant well and took in animals but was unable to adequately care for or provide medical attention to them. Additionally, some of the animals were kept under poor conditions—some even on leashes. Iuly was the only female dog that the woman finally released, and Rodica was allowed to take her. She had wounds on her neck, having been tied up with a rope for an extended period. Currently, Iuly is doing much better. Despite her difficult past, she has not lost her trust in people. In April 2026, the board met her personally and found her to be an open and friendly female dog, albeit still somewhat reserved, who greatly enjoys cuddles. For Iuly, we wish for a home that she deserves—one where she is seen, valued, and lovingly welcomed. A place where she can arrive in peace and finally experience how wonderful a safe dog life can be.

Mitte Februar erhielt Rodica die Nachricht, dass auf einem verwahrlosten Grundstück Hunde und Katzen in schlechtem Zustand leben. Vor Ort stellte sich heraus, dass dort eine ältere Frau lebte, die es gut meinte und Tiere bei sich aufnahm, jedoch nicht in der Lage war, sie ausreichend zu versorgen oder medizinisch zu betreuen. Zudem wurden einige der Tiere unter schlechten Bedingungen gehalten – teils an der Kette. Iuly war die einzige Hündin, die die Frau schliesslich freigab, und Rodica durfte sie mitnehmen. Sie trug Wunden am Hals, da sie über längere Zeit mit einem Strick angebunden war. Mittlerweile geht es Iuly deutlich besser. Trotz ihrer schwierigen Vergangenheit hat sie das Vertrauen in Menschen nicht verloren. Ende April 2026 lernte der Vorstand sie persönlich kennen und erlebte sie als aufgeschlossene, wenn auch noch etwas zurückhaltende Hündin, die Streicheleinheiten dennoch sehr geniesst. Für Iuly wünschen wir uns ein Zuhause, das sie verdient – einen Ort, an dem sie gesehen, geschätzt und liebevoll aufgenommen wird. Ein Platz, an dem sie in Ruhe ankommen darf und endlich erfahren kann, wie schön ein sicheres Hundeleben ist.

About Iuly

What life with Iuly looks like

Iuly is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Glückshunde Schweiz in Glueckshunde.

An young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇨🇭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 Iuly, answered.

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