Lalo

Male · Young · 3 years

Lalo was found frightened in an abandoned cellar. We do not know what he experienced before. However, the shy dog has since developed into a cheerful, funny and lively fellow. Lalo loves people and enjoys every form of attention and affection. He is happy about closeness and shows every day more, how much joie de vivre is in him. Lalo is compatible with other dogs. How he reacts to cats has yet to be tested. After his difficult start, the beautiful chapter of his life is finally to begin. Now all that is missing for Lalo is his very personal happiness. We will report again.

21.08.2026 Lalo wurde verängstigt in einem verlassenen Keller gefunden. Was er zuvor erlebt hat, wissen wir nicht. Doch inzwischen hat sich der schüchterne Hund zu einem fröhlichen, lustigen und lebensfrohen Kerl entwickelt. Lalo liebt Menschen und geniesst jede Form von Aufmerksamkeit und Zuwendung. Er freut sich über Nähe und zeigt jeden Tag mehr, wie viel Lebensfreude in ihm steckt. Mit anderen Hunden ist Lalo verträglich.Wie er auf Katzen reagiert, muss noch getestet werden. Nach seinem schwierigen Start soll nun endlich das schöne Kapitel seines Lebens beginnen. Nun fehlt Lalo nur noch sein ganz persönliches Glück. Wir berichten wieder.

About Lalo

What life with Lalo looks like

Lalo is a young adult dog waiting at Tierhilfe Arme Pfoten in Arme Pfoten.

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 Lalo, answered.

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