How do I contact the shelter about Nuri?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Stiftung Tierheim Nesslau handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Nuri on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Nuri if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Stiftung Tierheim Nesslau 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 Nuri 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 Nuri 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 Tierheim Nesslau early rather than rehoming privately; they know Nuri 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.

Nuri

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 10 years

Salukirüde NURI Geboren am 7.4. 2019 Farbe Creme Kastriert In einem guten gesundheitlichen Allgemeinzustand Nuri ist ein anhänglicher und lieber Saluki. Er liebt es, wenn er möglichst bei seinen Menschen sein kann. Er läuft sehr gut an der Leine und ist gut zu handeln. Er lebt seit vielen Jahren in unserem Rudel und zeigt sich Menschen gegenüber freundlich, anhänglich und rassetypisch sensibel. Ausserhalb unserer häuslichen Rüden-Konstellation zeigt er kein auffälliges Verhalten. Leider hat sich im Zusammenleben mit unserem inzwischen 16 Monate alten Jungrüden eine anhaltende und ernsthafte Unverträglichkeit entwickelt. Trotz sorgfältigem Management und obwohl sich der Jungrüde unterordnet, kommt es wiederholt zu Angriffen. Aus Verantwortung gegenüber beiden Hunden haben wir uns deshalb entschlossen, für Nuri ein passendes neues Zuhause zu suchen. Wir wünschen uns für ihn einen Platz bei Menschen mit Erfahrung im Umgang mit Windhunden – idealerweise als Einzelhund oder gemeinsam mit einer souveränen Hündin. Einen Haushalt mit einem weiteren Rüden und in dem auch Katzen leben, müssen wir ausschliessen. Uns ist besonders wichtig, dass er in ein liebevolles, dauerhaftes Zuhause kommt, in dem seine Bedürfnisse verstanden werden. Ein gegenseitiges Kennenlernen ist für uns selbstverständlich. Wir geben ihn nicht aus Zeitmangel oder wegen fehlender Bindung ab, sondern weil wir überzeugt sind, dass dies für alle beteiligten Hunde die beste und v.a. sicherste Lösung ist. Wenn Sie glauben, Nuri ein passendes Zuhause bieten zu können, freuen wir uns über eine persönliche Kontaktaufnahme. Gerne erzählen wir Ihnen in einem Gespräch mehr über seinen Charakter, seine Gewohnheiten und alles, was ihn ausmacht. Kontaktperson: Doris Widmer,

About Nuri

What life with Nuri looks like

Nuri is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at Stiftung Tierheim Nesslau in Nesslau.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇨🇭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.
