How do I contact the shelter about Mally?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. SPA Fribourg handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Mally on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Mally if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — SPA Fribourg 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 Mally 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 Mally 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 SPA Fribourg early rather than rehoming privately; they know Mally 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.

Mally

Female · Adult · 8 years

Mally is a sensitive and reserved dog who needs time to trust. Once reassured, she reveals a tender, affectionate, endearing personality that appreciates quiet moments. She will still keep her strong character! Ideal environment and home: We are looking for a home without children for Mally, composed of calm, patient, and caring people, ready to offer her the stability and presence she needs to flourish serenely. Required experience: Mally can be suitable as a first dog. As with any adoption, we recommend being accompanied by a professional from the canine world in order to promote a beautiful adaptation and a harmonious relationship. Compatibility: Mally does not get along with her peers and has never lived with cats. For her well-being, we are looking for a home where she will be the only pet. Special needs: Mally will need loving people who are invested in and respectful of her rhythm to help her gain confidence and flourish fully in her new life. If you think you can offer the beautiful life that Mally deserves, we would be happy to meet you! In case of interest, please fill out the online form "request - interest in adopting a dog". If the criteria explicitly required in the texts presenting the dogs are not respected, no follow-up will be given to the adoption request. Please also read our placement philosophy.

About Mally

What life with Mally looks like

Mally is a small adult dog waiting at SPA Fribourg in Font.

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.
