Lagertha

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 5 years

The female dog, less than a year old and taken in in June 2021 by a guardian overwhelmed by the health condition (OCD) of the female dog and the resulting financial burden, was taken in by the new home, which is approximately 700km away, by three volunteer helpers who drove a portion of the journey each. She settled well into her new home and is developing very well. She was permanently rehomed and was also allowed to take a medical patronage from the foundation in her 'luggage'. It is still unclear whether she will need an operation or if future complications are to be expected.

Die wenige Monate alte Hündin wurde im Juni 2021 von einer durch den Gesundheitszustand (OCD) der Hündin und der damit einhergehenden finanziellen Belastung überforderten Halterin übernommen. Ins neue Zuhause, welches ca. 700km entfernt liegt, wurde sie von 3 freiwilligen Helferinnen und Helfern, welche je ein Stück des Weges gefahren sind, gebracht. Dort ist sie gut angekommen und entwickelt sich sehr gut. Sie wurde fest vermittelt und durfte in ihrer ‘Reisetasche’ auch eine medizinische Patenschaft der Stiftung mitnehmen. Noch ist unklar, ob sie eine Operation benötigt oder ob mit späteren Schäden gerechnet werden muss.

About Lagertha

What life with Lagertha looks like

Lagertha is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Moiren Stiftung in Erlinsbach.

An 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 Lagertha, answered.

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