Jenna

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 11 years

Drahthaar is a spayed female who arrived after her grandpa was hospitalized. Having always been very close to humans, she would not tolerate being alone for entire days. She is a dynamic, affectionate and lively dog. In short, Drahthaar is still a young pup for her age. She is an ideal candidate if you are looking for a life companion ready to follow you in all your adventures. Her background as a hunter means she cannot be walked without a leash and cannot live with cats. She has never lived with children but this will not be a problem if they know how to respect her space. Health-wise, apart from some minor aches of an old lady, she is relatively healthy.

FR·Show original

Jenna est une femelle drahthaar stérilisée qui est arrivée suite à l’hospitalisation de son papy. Ayant toujours été très proche de l’humain, elle ne supporterait pas de passer des journées entières seule. C’est une chienne dynamique, câline et pleine de vie. En résumé, Jenna est encore une jeunette pour son âge. C’est une candidate idéale si vous cherchez un compagnon de vie prêt à vous suivre dans toutes vos aventures. Son passé de chasseuse ne lui permettra pas d’être baladée sans laisse et de vivre en présence de chats. Elle n’a jamais vécu avec des enfants mais cela ne posera pas de problème s’ils savent respecter son espace. Niveau santé à part quelques petits bobos de vieille dame elle est relativement en bonne santé.

About Jenna

What life with Jenna looks like

Jenna is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at Oasis des vétérans.

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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Jenna, answered.

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