Adopt Rasko

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Young · 1 year

Rasko is a lively and active young dog who still has many mischief-making ideas in his head. He needs to learn a lot and requires very consistent training. He is only conditionally compatible with other dogs; many find him too wild and pushy. He was recently neutered, and we think his behavior towards other dogs will improve soon. Rasko walks quite well on a leash and is on the leash when out for walks with his person. He is a curious and alert dog with a lot of potential. However, Rasko is also quite stubborn and needs clear instructions. We only place him with experienced dog owners. He will surely become a very loyal "best buddy."

Read original (de)

Rasko ist ein sportlicher und aktiver Junghund, der noch viele Flausen im Kopf hat. Er muss noch viel lernen und braucht sehr konsequente Erziehung. Er ist mit anderen Hunden nur bedingt verträglich, vielen ist er zu wild und aufdringlich. Er wurde kürzlich kastriert und wir denken, dass sich sein Verhalten anderen Hunden gegenüber bald verbessern wird. Da Rasko im vorherigen Zuhause oft alleinebleiben musste, hat er jetzt sehr Mühe damit. Dies muss er langsam wieder erlernen, dies wir Geduld brauchen. Rasko läuft recht gut an der Leine und ist auf dem Spaziergang in Verbindung mit seinem Menschen. Er ist ein neugieriger und aufgeweckter Hund mit viel Potenzial. Rasko ist aber auch ein recht sturer Kerl und braucht ganz klare Ansagen. Wir vermitteln ihn ausschliesslich zu erfahrenen Hundemenschen und nicht zu Kindern. Er wird sicher ein ganz loyaler „best Buddy“, wenn er Vertrauen aufgebaut hat und Sicherheit bekommt!

About Rasko

What life with Rasko looks like

Rasko is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Linth in Switzerland.

An young 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 Rasko, answered.

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