Shakir – hat ein neues Zuhause gefunden

Galgo Español · Unknown · Senior · 11 years

SHAKIRS sad story: One day in Spain, a hunter stood before the door of a woman whom he knew was engaged in animal welfare. He told her that if she didn't take the 13 Galgos immediately, he would throw the dogs off the next cliff. Borja, a friend of the woman who runs a small Spanish rescue station, took in 4 of the Galgos (the others could also be saved). One of the four dogs is SHAKIR. Since August 2022, Shakir has been with us in the Jura. He must have experienced something terrible. Shakir still finds walks very anxious and they are not possible. However, he loves running in the large run and is very happy there. We are looking for a home for him with a fenced garden in a quiet area with understanding people. A second dog can already live there, as Shakir is very compatible. SHAKIR's diary with more photos, videos, and information can be found on our homepage: www.grisette.ch. If you would like to meet SHAKIR informally and offer him a suitable home, we would be happy if you request our informal application form: if there is an answering machine, please leave a message, we will call back) or by email: info(at)grisette.ch. SHAKIR is vaccinated, microchipped, neutered, tested for Mediterranean diseases (borderline leishmaniasis titer, symptom-free and currently without medication) and cleared. He has not yet been tested for: handling with cats: not tested handling with children: too afraid unfortunately not suitable as a second dog: yes, very suitable for a sovereign only dog. SHAKIR, Breed: Galgo espanol, born: 05.05.2015, height: 68 cm More info:

SHAKIRS traurige Geschichte: Eines Tages stand in Spanien ein Jäger mit 13 Galgos vor der Türe einer Frau von der er wohl wusste, dass sie sich im Tierschutz engagiert. Er sagte zu ihr, falls sie die 13 Galgos nicht sofort nehme, werde er die Hunde die nächste Klippe runterwerfen. Borja, ein Freund der Frau, der eine kleine spanische Auffangstation hat, übernahm 4 der Galgos (auch die anderen konnten gerettet werden). Einer der vier Hunde ist SHAKIR. Seit August 2022 ist Shakir nun bei uns im Jura. Er muss Schlimmes erlebt haben. Spaziergänge findet er noch immer ganz gruselig und die sind nicht möglich. Er liebt es aber, im grossen Auslauf zu rennen und ist da sehr glücklich. Wir suchen für ihn ein Zuhause mit eingezäuntem Garten in ruhiger Umgebung bei verständnisvollen Menschen. Sehr gerne darf dort auch bereits ein anderer Hund leben, Shakir ist sehr verträglich. SHAKIRS Tagebuch mit mehr Fotos, Videos und Infos gibt’s auf unserer Homepage : www.grisette.ch . Falls Sie SHAKIR unverbindlich kennenlernen möchten und ihm ein passendes Zuhause bieten könnten, freuen wir uns wenn Sie unser unverbindliches Bewerbungsformular anfordern: falls Anrufbeantworter, bitte Meldung hinterlassen, wir rufen gerne zurück) oder per Mail: info(at)grisette.ch . SHAKIR ist geimpft, gechippt, kastriert, auf Mittelmeerkrankheiten getestet (grenzwertiger Leishmaniose-Titer, symptomfrei und zurzeit ohne Medikation) und verzollt. Er wird mit Schutzvertrag und gegen eine Schutzgebühr nach vorheriger Platzvorkontrolle vermittelt. Umgang mit Katzen: noch nicht getestet Umgang mit Kindern: da zu ängstlich leider nicht Eignung als Zweithund: ja, sehr geeignet zu souveränem Ersthund SHAKIR, Rasse: Galgo espanol, geboren: 05.05.2015, Größe: 68 cm Mehr Infos:

About Shakir – hat ein neues Zuhause gefunden

What life with Shakir – hat ein neues Zuhause gefunden looks like

Shakir – hat ein neues Zuhause gefunden is a small senior galgo español dog waiting at Tierschutzbund Basel Regional.
