Border Collie · Unknown · Young · 1 year

Bailey female, Border Collie x Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever, born 20.01.2025, Rocky male, Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever, born 07.11.2023, both brown with white, both spayed/neutered, Bailey spayed, Rocky intact, time-related reasons for relinquishment. Rocky is very trainable, house-trained, drives well in the car, and can stay alone for a few hours. Rocky loves children and is very close to them. Rocky's quirk is that he likes to bark at other dogs during walks, but this can be easily trained out of him as he is very smart and attentive. Bailey is also house-trained, drives well in the car, and can stay alone for a while. She loves children too. Rocky's quirk is that he shows some leash reactivity to other dogs during walks. She is young, very eager to learn, and wants to please her owner. Shared information: No experience with cats yet. An ideal home would be with people who enjoy working with us. It would be wonderful if we could stay together as we are a well-coordinated team - a pair.

Rasse: Border Collie x Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever Farbe: Braun mit Weiss Alter: Bailey 20.01.2025 / Rocky 07.11.2023 Geschlecht: Bailey weiblich / Rocky männlich Kastriert: Bailey ja / Rocky nein Verzichtgrund: Zeitliche Gründe Eigenschaften: Traum-Duo sucht Herzensmenschen Da sich unsere Besitzerin schweren Herzens aus zeitlichen Gründen nicht mehr so um uns kümmern kann, wie wir es verdienen, suchen wir gemeinsam oder getrennt ein liebevolles, neues Zuhause auf Lebenszeit. Wir wohnen aktuell in der Region Emmental. Rocky ist sehr lernwillig, stubenrein, fährt problemlos im Auto mit und kann gut ein paar Stunden alleine bleiben. Rocky ist ein absoluter Kindernarr und liebt die Nähe zu ihnen sehr. Besonderheit: Draussen beim Spazieren bellt er gerne andere Hunde an, was sich mit konsequentem Training aber super wegerziehen lässt, da er sehr klug und aufmerksam ist. Genau wie Rocky ist Bailey komplett stubenrein, fährt brav im Auto mit und bleibt problemlos eine Weile alleine zu Hause. Auch sie liebt Kinder über alles. Besonderheit: Zeigt wie Rocky beim gemeinsamen Spaziergang eine gewisse Leinenreaktivität bei anderen Hunden. Sie ist aber noch jung, extrem lernfreudig und möchte ihren Menschen gefallen. Gemeinsame Infos: Verträglichkeit mit Katzen: Bisher keine Erfahrungswerte vorhanden. Ideal wäre ein Zuhause bei Menschen, die Freude daran haben, mit uns zu arbeiten. Es wäre wunderschön, wenn wir zusammenbleiben könnten, da wir ein eingespieltes Team sind – eine getrennte

About Mischlinge Bailey & Rocky

What life with Mischlinge Bailey & Rocky looks like

Mischlinge Bailey & Rocky is a medium-sized young adult border collie dog waiting at Berner Tierzentrum in Switzerland.

A young 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 Mischlinge Bailey & Rocky, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Mischlinge Bailey & Rocky?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Berner Tierzentrum handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Mischlinge Bailey & Rocky on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Mischlinge Bailey & Rocky if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Berner Tierzentrum 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Mischlinge Bailey & Rocky 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 Mischlinge Bailey & Rocky 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 Berner Tierzentrum early rather than rehoming privately; they know Mischlinge Bailey & Rocky 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.
