Adopt Matcho

Husky · Male

Matcho was entrusted to us by his family because he was unmanageable. Damages, fights with other dogs in the family and repeated escape attempts. For a Husky, he is very genuine, he has a taste for adventure, he loves to run, to pull... his energy is endless and his mind is steel. There is no doubt for him, he needs an active, very active home! Experts and lovers of Nordic dogs will be able to positively develop him by offering him the life he deserves that meets his needs. Let's say he will not be placed as a companion dog. Profile we are looking for: If you are interested.

Matcho nous a été confié par sa famille car il était ingérable. Destructions, bagarres avec les autres chiens de la famille et fugues répétées. Pour un Husky, c’est un vrai de vrai, il a le goût de l’aventure, il aime courir, tracter… son énergie est sans fin et son mental est d’acier. Pour lui, aucun doute, il lui faut un foyer actif, très actif ! Des connaisseurs et amoureux de chiens nordiques sauront le faire évoluer de manière positive en lui offrant la vie qu’il mérite et qui répondra à ses besoins. Autant dire qu’il ne sera pas placé comme chien de compagnie. Profil que nous recherchons : Si vous êtes intéressé(e) par notre sportif, Matcho et que vous souhaitez en savoir plus, n'hésitez pas à nous contacter au 87.Attention, visite sur rendez-vous uniquement !

About Matcho

What life with Matcho looks like

Matcho is a adult husky dog waiting at SPA Le Locle in Le Locle.

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 Matcho, answered.

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