LAGUNA

Mixed Breed · Unknown

LAGUNA IS A SPANISH MASTIFF, SHE IS NOT ADOPTABLE IN ALL CANTONS. WE ARE HAPPY TO PROVIDE YOU WITH INFORMATION! LAGUNA IS LOCATED IN SPAIN Laguna appeared one day in the olive grove behind our partner shelter, Magina Animal. The volunteers fed her every day to earn her trust. She seemed very shy and fearful, but little by little she grew accustomed to them, and each day she gently came a little closer. After feeding her for a month and a half, they noticed she had become quite chubby, so it became urgent to catch her and have her spayed. Once at the shelter, they discovered that, although she is a bit shy, she is a dog who adapts quickly to new situations. Now that she trusts people, she willingly lets herself be petted, she is very playful, and she gets along well with all dogs. Laguna is one of those invisible dogs... she has been at the shelter for 2 years and still patiently waits for her family, forever! Ready to finally offer her a life of freedom and love?

LAGUNA EST UN MÂTIN ESPAGNOL, ELLE N'EST PAS ADOPTABLE DANS TOUS LES CANTONS. NOUS VOUS RENSEIGNONS VOLONTIERS ! LAGUNA SE TROUVE EN ESPAGNE Laguna est apparue un jour dans l'oliveraie derrière notre refuge partenaire Magina Animal. Les bénévoles l’ont nourrie tous les jours pour la mettre en confiance, elle semblait très timide et peureuse, mais petit à petit elle s'habituait à eux et chaque jour elle se rapprochait gentiment d’eux. Après l'avoir nourrie pendant un mois et demi, ils ont remarqué qu'elle était très grassouillette, il était donc urgent de l’attraper et de la faire stériliser. Une fois au refuge, ils ont découvert que, bien qu'elle soit un peu timide, c'est une chienne qui s'adapte rapidement aux nouvelles situations. Maintenant qu'elle est en confiance, elle se laisse volontiers caresser, elle est très joueuse et s'entend bien avec tous les chiens. Laguna fait partie de ces chiens invisibles...cela fait 2 ans qu'elle est au refuge et elle attend toujours patiemment sa famille pour toujours ! Prêts à enfin lui offrir une vie de liberté et d'amour ?

About LAGUNA

What life with LAGUNA looks like

LAGUNA is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at MACFI - Maison d in Switzerland.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 LAGUNA, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about LAGUNA?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. MACFI - Maison d handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw LAGUNA on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt LAGUNA if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — MACFI - Maison d 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is LAGUNA 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 LAGUNA 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 MACFI - Maison d early rather than rehoming privately; they know LAGUNA 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.
