Melbourne

Female

Melbourne is a rather calm bearded dragon who likes it cozy and values her peace. Despite this, she can be easily picked up and is very easy to handle. We are looking for a single place for Melbourne, as she eats rather slowly and cannot assert herself sufficiently against other bearded dragons. As a result, she often does not get to eat. We wish for Melbourne a quiet, loving home where she can eat at her own pace without competition and enjoy her relaxed nature. According to animal welfare law, the terrarium must have a minimum size of 140cm x 80cm x 60cm.

DE·Show original

Melbourne ist eine eher ruhige Bartagame, die es gerne gemütlich hat und ihre Ruhe schätzt. Trotzdem lässt sie sich problemlos auf die Hand nehmen und ist im Umgang sehr unkompliziert. Für Melbourne suchen wir einen Einzelplatz, da sie beim Fressen eher langsam ist und sich gegenüber anderen Bartagamen nicht ausreichend durchsetzen kann. Dadurch kommt sie leider häufig nicht ans Futter. Wir wünschen uns für Melbourne ein ruhiges, liebevolles Zuhause, in dem sie ohne Konkurrenz in ihrem eigenen Tempo fressen und ihr entspanntes Wesen geniessen kann. Das Terrarium muss laut Tierschutzgesetz eine Mindestgrösse von 140cm x 80cm x 60cm haben.

About Melbourne

What life with Melbourne looks like

Melbourne is a adult animal waiting at Stiftung Tierschutzzentrum Thurgau in Switzerland.

Every animal has their own temperament and history. The shelter knows Melbourne far better than any listing can convey — ask about daily routine, ideal household, and what kind of adopter they're hoping for.

🇨🇭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 Melbourne, answered.

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