Adopt Snow

Pit Bull Terrier · Female · Adult · 5 years

Female, neutered. Birthdate: 8.8.2020. Origin: Switzerland. Breed: Unknown. Snow was found together with her sister Aria. The dogs were wearing a rope collar and had probably escaped somewhere. The finder of the dogs immediately alerted the police, who searched the dogs for a chip. Unfortunately, to no avail. The two strays were not microchipped and were therefore not registered on the Amicus dog database, even though this is legally required in Switzerland. While Aria has found a new family, Snow continues to wait for a loving home with knowledgeable dog friends.

Die Hunde trugen ein Halsband mit Strick und haben sich wahrscheinlich irgendwo losgerissen. Der Finder der Hunde alarmierte umgehend die Polizei, welche die Hunde nach einem Chip absuchte. Leider vergeblich. Die beiden Listenhunde waren nicht gechipt und somit auch nicht auf der Hundedatenbank Amicus registriert, obwohl dies in der Schweiz gesetzlich vorgeschrieben ist. Während Aria mittlerweile eine neue Familie gefunden hat, wartet Snow weiterhin auf ein liebevolles Zuhause bei rassekundigen Hundefreunden. Aufgrund ihrer Rasse – Pit Bull, deren Haltung in verschiedenen Kantonen eingeschränkt oder verboten ist – gestaltet sich die

About Snow

What life with Snow looks like

Snow is a adult pit bull terrier dog waiting at Tierdörfli Olten in Wangen bei Olten.

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 Snow, answered.

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