Pit

Dachshund · Male · Adult · 7 years

Pit – ein freundlicher Rauhaardackel-Rüde Der siebenjährige Pit hatte ein Zuhause, leider ist sein Besitzer aber verstorben. Dort hat er mit einem anderen Rüden zusammengelebt. Dieser hat bereits ein neues Zuhause gefunden und das wünschen wir uns jetzt natürlich auch für unseren Pit! Pit ist sehr freundlich zu allen Menschen und auch mit seinen Artgenossen versteht er sich ausgezeichnet. Er geht gerne spazieren, geniesst aber auch das Leben im Haus und natürlich Streicheleinheiten von SEINEN Menschen. Autofahren kennt er und macht er sehr gut. Auch beim tierärztlichen Check-up war Pit total freundlich und kooperativ. Er ist ein richtig liebenswürdiger und netter Dackel-Mann, der sich wieder nach einem liebevollen Zuhause mit schönen Spaziergängen, Ausflügen und einem weichen Bettchen sehnt! Pit kann Anfang Dezember ausreisen. Bevorzugt wird Direktadoption bei Ankunft in der Schweiz oder auch selbst Abholen in Ungarn ist möglich. Wir geben sehr gerne nähere Auskunft!

About Pit

What life with Pit looks like

Pit is a medium-sized adult dachshund dog waiting at Your Heart 4 Rescued Dogs in Yourheart4dogs.

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 Pit, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Pit?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Your Heart 4 Rescued Dogs handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Pit on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Pit if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Your Heart 4 Rescued Dogs 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 Pit 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 Pit 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 Your Heart 4 Rescued Dogs early rather than rehoming privately; they know Pit 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.
