Spritz

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Senior · 9 years

Spritz is a poodle mix who arrived at the shelter in November 2023. Unfortunately, his previous environment was not suited to his health or his temperament. This little guy is very enthusiastic, to the point of getting carried away by his emotions, so he needs to be closely supervised. He gets along very well with other dogs, but it would be best if he were the only animal in the home, with no children.

Spritz est un croisé caniche arrivé en novembre 2023, malheureusement son environnement n’était pas adapté à sa santé et à son caractère. Ce petit être est très enthousiaste, au point de se laisser dépasser par ses émotions. Il doit donc être très encadré. Il s’entend très bien avec ses congénères, mais il sera préférable qu’il soit le seul animal, sans enfants.

About Spritz

What life with Spritz looks like

Spritz is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at Oasis des vétérans.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇨🇭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). Many animals leave sterilized and chipped, but confirm with the shelter.

Frequently asked

Adopting Spritz, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Spritz?
Use the "View on shelter website" button on this page, which takes you to the shelter's own page. Oasis des vétérans handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Spritz on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Spritz if I live in another country?
Often, but it depends on the shelter and the countries involved. Some rescues place animals abroad and some only adopt out locally, so ask Oasis des vétérans whether they will for Spritz, what they require (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Spritz already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
TailHarbor has no vaccination, microchip or sterilization details for Spritz. The adoption fee, and what it covers, is set by Oasis des vétérans, so confirm with them what is included (vaccinations, microchip, sterilization, paperwork) and ask about specific vaccines, recent bloodwork or chronic conditions.
What happens if Spritz isn't the right fit?
Many rescues take an animal back if an adoption doesn't work, but policies differ, so ask Oasis des vétérans about its return policy before you adopt. If things aren't working, talk it through with them early rather than rehoming privately; they know Spritz 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 (FR). 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.
