Adopt Panda

Mixed Breed · Male

My cute name is Panda. I get along well with my fellow animals. With people, I am very cautious and reserved. But I am a truly lovable little guy. I am a very shy little fellow, and have not had the chance to experience much beauty in my life. After being rescued by a family from the streets, things did not improve much for me. No one had taken care of me, and no one was nice to me. So, a dear animal welfare worker made sure I could move into the residence at Hundehilfe Motril. In the first weeks, I hardly moved and would tremble with every approach of a person. But with time, I found joy in my dog buddies. I have slowly felt more secure in the now familiar surroundings. But everything new still scares me. I need loving people who can gently acclimate me to life outside the shelter. We wish for the dear Panda a home in a quiet environment where a family can spend a lot of time with him, so he can feel safe and secure. People with dog experience and without children. Unfortunately, Panda was bitten by a stupid mosquito, so he is currently being treated for a southern disease.

Mein hübscher Name ist Panda . Ich verstehe mich gut mit meinen Artgenossen . Menschen gegenüber bin ich sehr vorsichtig und zurückhaltend. Doch bin ich ein wirklich liebenswertes Kerlchen. Ich bin ein sehr schüchterner Bub , und habe in meinem Leben noch nicht viel Schönes kennenlernen dürfen. Nachdem ich von einer Familie von der Strasse gerettet wurde, ging es mir auch nicht viel besser. Niemand hatte sich um mich gekümmert und es war auch keiner nett zu mir. So hat sich ein lieber Tierschützer dafür eingesetzt , dass ich in die Residenz von Hundehilfe Motril einziehen konnte. In den ersten Wochen habe ich mich kaum bewegt und ich hatte bei jeder Annäherung einer Person gezittert . Doch mit der Zeit habe ich Freude an meinen Hundekumpels gefunden . Ich habe mich langsam etwas sicherer gefühlt, in der mir nun vertrauten Umgebung. Doch alles Neue macht mir noch Angst . Ich brauche liebe Menschen, welche mich behutsam an das Leben ausserhalb der Auffangstation gewöhnen. Wir wünschen uns für den lieben Panda, ein Zuhause in einer ruhigen Umgebung. Eine Familie die viel Zeit an seiner Seite verbringen kann, damit er sich sicher und geborgen fühlen darf. Menschen mit Hundeerfahrung und ohne Kinder. Leider wurde Panda von einer dummen Mücke gestochen, darum wird er zur Zeit gegen eine Süd-Krankheit behandelt.

About Panda

What life with Panda looks like

Panda is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Hundehilfe Motril in St. Gallen.

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 Panda, answered.

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