Mikki

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Adult · 6 years

Origin Country: Switzerland. Born: February 13, 2020. Mikki has lived since June 8, 2022, with the "foundation-Gang". Mikki is a sensitive, witty, and somewhat reserved (once trust has been established) but also very impulsive Miniature Bull Terrier. Unfortunately, he had a very difficult start in life, and this has not been made up for to this day. He was fortunate enough to be taken in by a pair who lovingly cared for him. Nevertheless, these deficiencies could never be overcome. Mikki reacts strongly to his environment, during dog encounters, and loses his footing quickly in stressful situations. Thanks to good support, he can now handle many situations much better today. Nevertheless, he will always require a particularly careful lead. Mikki is listed among the dogs to be rehomed. However, we only place him with an individual who is well acquainted with this breed and can provide him with a careful, sensitive, and yet clear framework.

Der Witzige Herkunftsland: Schweiz. Geboren: 13. Februar 2020 Mikki lebt seit dem 08. Juni 2022 mit der «foundation-Gang».Mikki ist ein sensibler, witziger, verschmuster (wenn er Vertrauen aufgebaut hat), aber auch sehr impulsiver Miniature Bull Terrier. Leider hat er einen sehr schlechten Start ins Leben gehabt, was sich bis heute nicht aufholen liess. Er hatte das Glück zu einem Paar zu ziehen, das sich liebevoll um ihn kümmerte. Dennoch konnten diese Defizite nie aufgeholt werden. Mikki reagiert sehr stark in der Umwelt, bei Hundebegegnungen und verliert rasch die Bodenhaftung in stressigen Situationen. Dank guter Unterstützung kann er viele Situationen heute deutlich besser händeln. Dennoch wird er ein Leben lang eine besonders achtsame Führung benötigen. Mikki ist bei den zu vermittelnden Hunden aufgeführt. Allerdings vermitteln wir ihn ausschliesslich an eine Einzelperson, die sich gut mit dieser Rasse auskennt und ihm einen achtsamen, einfühlsamen und doch klaren Rahmen bieten kann.

About Mikki

What life with Mikki looks like

Mikki is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at NF dogshome AG in Bad Ragaz.

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 Mikki, answered.

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