How do I contact the shelter about OLI – Patentier?

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

Can I adopt OLI – Patentier if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Aargauischer Tierschutzverein ATs 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 OLI – Patentier 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 OLI – Patentier 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 Aargauischer Tierschutzverein ATs early rather than rehoming privately; they know OLI – Patentier 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.

OLI – Patentier

Maltese · Male · Adult · 7 years

OLI – Patentier Rasse: Malteser / white Age: September 5, 2019 Oli is in the >> ATs-Patenschaftsprojekt Project Updated: April 24, 2026 The male dog Oli is friendly, active, and attentive. Currently, he looks a bit "bald" due to his fur having been shaved. Oli arrived with us quite neglected and stressed. At the time, he did not want to be groomed by our animal attendants and responded with snap attacks. We gave him time to get used to and settle in. In the meantime, he allows himself to be handled well by familiar people. However, animal health checks are still a horror for him; he does not like being held firmly or "fixed." With targeted exercises and positive reinforcement, some improvements in behavior have already been achieved. With other dogs, if the chemistry is right, he gets along very well. Basic obedience / leash control is present but needs to be built upon and strengthened. Oli knows how to ride in a car, and that should not be a problem. Oli requires regular fur care once it has grown back. He must be encouraged with varied walks, some head work, possibly tracking and search games, depending on what brings him joy, but not overburdened, as sufficient rest phases are very important for a dog's well-being. Oli requires consistent, but fair and fine leadership. A good, suitable dog training class is advantageous. Oli came from a case involving two other dogs (re-homed) and originally came from Slovakia, arriving as a puppy in Switzerland. For Oli, we are looking for a new home with people who have a lot of time and dog experience. Although Oli is one of the smaller dogs, he needs to be encouraged. We only place Oli with people who can take him to work or who spend a lot of time at home. A house or apartment with a well-secured garden or seating area would be nice, but does not have to be present. Oli is not suitable for children. Share your interest in an animal with us via email and include the completed questions catalog for the respective animal type. The questions catalog can be found >>> HERE.

OLI – Patentier Rasse: Malteser / weiss Alter: 05. September 2019 Oli ist im >> ATs-Patenschaftsprojekt Aktualisiert: 9. September 2026 Der Rüde Oli ist freundlich, aktiv, verschmust und aufmerksam. Oli kam dazumal ziemlich verwahrlost und verängstigt bei uns an. Wir gaben ihm die Zeit, um sich einzugewöhnen und anzukommen. In der Zwischenzeit lässt er sich von vertrauten Personen aber sehr gut händeln. Tierarztbesuche sind ihm aber immer noch ein Greuel ;-), er mag es nicht, wenn er zu stark am Halsband „fixiert“ wird. Mit gezielten Übungen und positiven Verstärkungen konnten aber schon einige Verbesserungen erzielt werden. Mit anderen Hunden, wenn die Chemie stimmt, kommt er sehr gut zurecht. Grundgehorsam / Leinenführigkeit ist vorhanden, muss weiterhin aufgebaut und gefestigt werden. Autofahren kennt Oli und ist kein Problem für ihn. Oli benötigt regelmässige Fellpflege. Er muss mit abwechslungsreichen Spaziergängen, etwas Kopfarbeit, evtl. Fährten und Suchspielen, je nach dem was ihm Freude bereitet, gefördert, aber nicht überfordert werden, denn genügend Ruhephasen sind sehr wichtig für das Wohlbefinden eines Hundes. Oli benötigt eine konsequente, aber faire und feine Führung. Eine gute, passende Hundeschule ist von Vorteil. Oli stammt zusammen mit zwei anderen Hunden (vermittelt) aus einem Tierschutzfall. Er kommt ursprünglich aus der Slowakei und kam als Welpe in die Schweiz. Für Oli suchen wir ein neues Zuhause bei Personen mit viel Zeit und Hundeerfahrung. Obwohl Oli zu den kleineren Hunden gehört, will und muss er gefördert werden. Wir vermitteln Oli nur an Personen, die ihn mit zur Arbeit nehmen können oder die sehr viel Zeit Zuhause verbringen. Haus / Wohnung mit gut gesichertem Garten / Sitzplatz wäre schön, muss aber nicht zwingend vorhanden sein. Zu Kindern eignet er sich nicht. Oli wartet schon länger bei uns auf seinen Traumplatz, wer gibt ihm endlich ein Fürimmerzuhause?

About OLI – Patentier

What life with OLI – Patentier looks like

OLI – Patentier is a small adult maltese dog waiting at Aargauischer Tierschutzverein ATs in Zug (Allenwinden & Neuheim).

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.
