How do I contact the shelter about Pluto?

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

Can I adopt Pluto if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — ANDANA Pfotenhilfe Schweiz 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 Pluto 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 Pluto 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 ANDANA Pfotenhilfe Schweiz early rather than rehoming privately; they know Pluto 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.

Pluto

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 2 years

Male, neutered, born approximately 25.04.2024, mixed breed, height approximately 55 cm / weight approximately 25 kg. Pflegestelle Spain: Refugio Amposta. On May 15, 2026, the reserved Pluto traveled to Monika at her shelter. The handsome mixed breed male is friendly, distant, and still uncertain around people. He prefers to wait in a safe distance before approaching cautiously and then allows himself to be touched without problems. In the kennel, he is well-suited with all his fellow species, but does not push himself forward. Anais was allowed to meet the beautiful Pluto during her visit to the shelter and really likes the shy boy. For the lovable Pluto, we are looking for people with time, patience, and understanding for a dog from animal welfare, who give him the time to arrive and get used to life in the household. Pluto needs responsible people who teach him the dog ABC carefully and also mentally exhaust him. Did the handsome guy catch your eye? Then contact us by email.

Männlich, reist kastriert Geboren ca. 25.04.2024 Mischling Höhe ca. 55 cm / Gewicht ca. 25 kgPflegestelle Spanien: Refugio AmpostaAm 15. Mai 2026 reiste der zurückhaltende Pluto zu Monika in ihr Refugio. Der hübsche Mischlingsrüde zeigt sich freundlich, distanziert und noch unsicher den Menschen gegenüber. Er wartet lieber erst in sicherer Distanz ab, bevor er sich vorsichtig nähert und sich dann jedoch problemlos anfassen lässt. Im Zwinger ist er mit allen Artgenossen gut verträglich, drängt sich auch da nicht in den Vordergrund. Anais durfte den wunderschönen Pluto im Rahmen ihres Besuches im Refugio kennenlernen und mag den schüchternen Buben sehr.Für den liebenswerten Pluto wünschen wir uns Menschen mit Zeit, Geduld und Verständnis für einen Hund aus dem Tierschutz, die ihm die Zeit geben, um anzukommen und sich an ein Leben im Haushalt zu gewöhnen. Pluto braucht verantwortungsvolle Menschen, die ihm das Hunde ABC sorgfältig beibringen und ihn auch geistig auslasten. Ist dir der Schönling auch gleich ins Auge gestochen? Dann melde dich gleich per E-mail bei uns.

About Pluto

What life with Pluto looks like

Pluto is a large young adult mixed breed dog waiting at ANDANA Pfotenhilfe Schweiz in Switzerland.

An young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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.
