How do I contact the shelter about Rubia?

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 Rubia on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Rubia 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 Rubia 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 Rubia 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 Rubia 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.

Adopt Rubia

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

Female, has been neutered Born around July 1, 2024 Podenco mixed breed Height around 53 cm / Weight around 16 kgPflegestelle Spain: Refugio AmpostaOn January 13, 2026, the young, beautiful Podenca Rubia had good fortune and was allowed to move from the Perrera in Vinaros to Monika's refuge. The female dog has already settled well into the pack and gets along with all the fellow animals. Typical for a young pup, she still has energy to spare, is playful, curious, and carefree on the go. She is very open to people, gentle, and enjoys being petted without being pushy. The friendly Rubia should have the opportunity to practice dog 1x1 and get to know new environmental stimuli in her new home. We are looking for people with patience who enjoy being outdoors and would like to adequately engage the pretty, agile lady. Podencos often need a bit more time outside to build a close bond with their person, but they are very pleasant and calm companions indoors. If you would like to gift the lovely young pup a dog bed, please contact us right away.

Weiblich, reist kastriert Geboren ca. 01.07.2024 Podenco Mischling Höhe ca. 53 cm / Gewicht ca. 16 kgPflegestelle Spanien: Refugio AmpostaAm 13. Januar 2026 hatte die junge, wunderschöne Podenca Rubia Glück und durfte aus der Perrera in Vinaros zu Monika in ihr Refugio umziehen. Die Hündin hat sich schon gut im Rudel eingelebt und versteht sich mit allen Artgenossen. Junghundetypisch hat sie noch Hummeln im Hintern, ist verspielt, neugierig und unbeschwert unterwegs. Dem Menschen gegenüber ist sie sehr aufgeschlossen, sanft und lässt sich gerne streicheln, ohne dabei aufdringlich zu sein.Die freundliche Rubia sollte in ihrem neuen zu Hause die Gelegenheit bekommen das Hunde 1x1 zu üben und Umweltreize kennenzulernen. Wir suchen für sie Menschen mit Geduld, die gerne in der Natur unterwegs sind und die hübsche, agile Lady ausreichend beschäftigen möchten. Podencos brauchen draussen oft etwas länger, bis sie eine enge Bindung zu ihrem Menschen aufbauen, dafür sind sie im Haus sehr angenehme und ruhige Begleiter. Magst du der tollen Junghündin ein Körbchen schenken, dann melde dich gleich bei uns.

About Rubia

What life with Rubia looks like

Rubia 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.
