Adopt Mina

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 4 years

Hello dear animal friends out there, I am Mina, 2.5 years old and of medium size. Since I was a puppy, I've lived in the animal shelter in our area. But I can't complain; on the street, it would surely be much worse. Still, I would really appreciate my very own home with my very own people. That would be wonderful! I do like people very much, even though I can be a bit shy at first. I just need some time to warm up. Kids and other dogs are also okay with me. I'm more of a quiet character and not as active as my dog buddies here in the enclosure. So far, of course, I haven't learned much. Here in the animal shelter, the dear people unfortunately don't have the time to teach us anything. But I would definitely have fun learning commands. As long as I'm kept busy and can be with my people. So, what do you think, would we make a good match? Then please get in touch, I would be happy to meet you.

Hallo liebe Tierfreunde da Draussen Ich bin Mina, 2.5 Jahre alt und mittelgross. Seit ich ein Welpe bin, lebe ich im Tierheim in Rumänien. Doch ich kann mich nicht beklagen, auf der Strasse wäre es sicher viel schlimmer. Trotzdem würde ich mich wirklich sehr über ein eigenes Zuhause mit meinen eigenen Menschen freuen. Da, das wäre schön! Ich mag Menschen nämlich wirklich sehr, auch wenn ich anfangs etwas schüchtern bin. Ich brauche einfach etwas Zeit um aufzutauen. Kinder und andere Hunde mag ich ebenfalls. Ich bin vom Charakter her eher etwas ruhiger und nicht so aktiv wie meine Hundekumpels hier im Zwinger. Bis jetzt habe ich natürlich noch nicht viel gelernt. Hier im Tierheim haben die lieben Menschen leider keine Zeit uns etwas beizubringen. Doch ich hätte bestimmt Freude daran Kommandos zu lernen. Hauptsache, ich werde beschäfttigt und darf mit meinen Menschen zusammen sein. Na, was meinst du, würden wir zusammen passen? Dann melde dich doch bitte, ich würde mich freuen dich kennenzulernen. kleinen Kindern

About Mina

What life with Mina looks like

Mina is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Glückshunde Schweiz in Glueckshunde.

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 Mina, answered.

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