Polly &#8211

Mixed Breed · Female

With tender 8 weeks old, Polly was once sold for a lot of money from the boot of a vendor at a German rest stop. She was now being surrendered because in her new home, likely due to boredom and underemployment, she had damaged some items, which led to issues with the landlord. Polly is a friendly and cheerful young female dog. She needs dog-experienced people who can offer her love and patience, adopt her as a family member, and integrate her into their daily lives while supporting her growth without overwhelming her. She needs time and attention, and an ideal home would be one with a garden where she can run and develop fully. Polly is vaccinated, microchipped, and ready for rehoming. For more information, pictures, and videos about Polly, visit the website of the dog shelter Grisette: Polly. If you are interested in our dogs and would like to meet them informally, apply using the button below, and we will contact you as soon as possible. Alternatively, you can also request an informal application form at the dog shelter Grisette, where Polly is currently housed: if there is an answering machine, please leave a message, they will call you back, or you can email: info@grisette.ch. We appreciate your understanding if the processing of your request takes a little longer. We will do our best to provide a response as soon as possible.

DE·Show original

Mit zarten 8 Wochen, wurde Polly damals von einer Züchterin auf einer deutschen Raststätte aus dem Kofferraum heraus für viel Geld verkauft. Sie wurde nun abgegeben, weil sie in ihrem neuen Zuhause, wahrscheinlich aus Langeweile und Unterbeschäftigung, einige Gegenstände beschädigt hat, was unter anderem zu Schwierigkeiten mit dem Vermieter nach sich zog. Polly ist eine freundliche und gut gelaunte junge Hündin. Sie braucht hundeerfahrene Menschen, die ihr Liebe und Geduld entgegenbringen, sie als Familienmitglied adoptieren und in den Alltag mit einbinden und sie fördern, aber nicht nicht überfordern. Sie braucht Zeit und Aufmerksamkeit und ideal wäre ein Haus mit Garten, wo sie sich austoben und gut entwickeln kann. Polly wird geimpft, gechippt, mit Schutzvertrag und gegen eine Schutzgebühr von CHF 600.– vermittelt. Weitere Infos, Bilder und Videos zu Polly finden Sie auf der Website der Hundepension Grisette: Polly .

Es kann aber vorkommen, dass sehr viele Anfragen zusammenkommen oder dass unsere Ressourcen temporär dringend anderweitig gebraucht werden

About Polly &#8211

What life with Polly &#8211 looks like

Polly &#8211 is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzbund Basel Regional.

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 Polly &#8211, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Polly &#8211?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutzbund Basel Regional handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Polly &#8211 on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Polly &#8211 if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutzbund Basel Regional 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 Polly &#8211 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 Polly &#8211 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 Tierschutzbund Basel Regional early rather than rehoming privately; they know Polly &#8211 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.
