How do I contact the shelter about Roxy?

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

Can I adopt Roxy if I live in another country?

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

Roxy

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 5 years

Roxy has the great fortune of being able to leave Romania before the harsh winter sets in. On October 23rd, the little dog will travel to Switzerland to a loving foster home. There, she can arrive in peace, recover from the hardships of the past, and finally experience what it feels like to be cared for and loved. Roxy was found near Rodica's Shelter - abandoned and left to fend for herself. Fortunately, she was able to move in with Rodica and shows what a wonderful girl she is: calm, friendly, and incredibly loving. Roxy is one of the black dogs that unfortunately often have a harder time being seen and adopted. But behind her black fur is a very special heart. We sincerely hope that someone will fall in love with Roxy and give her the chance to have her own home. A home where she can be loved, arrive safely, and be part of a family for the rest of her life. Who will give Roxy this chance?

DE·Show original

Roxy hat das grosse Glück und darf noch vor dem grossen Wintereinbruch Rumänien hinter sich lassen. Am 30. Oktober darf die kleine Hündin in die Schweiz auf eine liebevolle Pflegestelle reisen. Dort kann sie in Ruhe ankommen, sich von den Strapazen der Vergangenheit erholen und endlich erfahren, wie es sich anfühlt, umsorgt und geliebt zu werden. Roxy wurde in der Nähe von Rodicas Shelter gefunden – ausgesetzt und ganz auf sich allein gestellt. Zum Glück durfte sie bei Rodica einziehen und zeigt dort, was für ein wundervolles Mädchen sie ist: ruhig, freundlich und unglaublich liebevoll. Roxy gehört zu den schwarzen Hunden, die es leider oft schwerer haben, gesehen und adoptiert zu werden. Doch hinter ihrem schwarzen Fell steckt ein ganz besonderes Herz. Wir hoffen von Herzen, dass sich jemand in Roxy verliebt und ihr die Chance auf ein eigenes Zuhause schenkt. Ein Zuhause, in dem sie geliebt wird, ankommen darf und für den Rest ihres Lebens Teil einer Familie sein kann. Wer schenkt Roxy diese Chance?

About Roxy

What life with Roxy looks like

Roxy is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Glückshunde Schweiz in Glueckshunde.

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.
