Tixi + Pixi

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy

On March 23, 2026, two young female dogs were found by passersby near Tigotà in Tricase. Both animals wore heavily worn collars, indicating they may have previously been in human care. Despite thorough inquiries, no owner was found, and no one claimed the dogs. The two female dogs were subsequently brought to a local Canile (animal shelter), where they have been housed since. Given their similar appearance and behavior, it is assumed they are siblings. They are medium-sized, young, and in overall good health. Both exhibit friendly, open, and people-oriented behavior. They appear sociable and actively seek contact with trusted people. Although their past is unclear, they show no obvious behavioral issues. However, it should be considered that long-term housing in a kennel for young and social dogs can be stressful.

Am 23.03.2026 wurden in der Nähe von Tigotà in Tricase zwei junge Hündinnen von Passanten aufgefunden. Beide Tiere trugen stark abgenutzte Halsbänder, was darauf hindeutet, dass sie zuvor in menschlicher Obhut gewesen sein könnten. Trotz entsprechender Nachforschungen konnte kein Besitzer ermittelt werden, und es meldete sich niemand, der Anspruch auf die Hunde erhob. Die beiden Hündinnen wurden daraufhin in ein örtliches Canile (Tierheim) gebracht, wo sie seither untergebracht sind. Aufgrund ihres ähnlichen Erscheinungsbildes und Verhaltens ist davon auszugehen, dass es sich um Geschwister handelt. Sie sind mittelgroß, jung und befinden sich in einem insgesamt guten gesundheitlichen Zustand. Im Verhalten zeigen sich beide Tiere als freundlich, aufgeschlossen und menschenbezogen. Sie wirken sozialverträglich und suchen aktiv den Kontakt zu Bezugspersonen. Trotz der ungeklärten Vorgeschichte lassen sie keine auffälligen Verhaltensstörungen erkennen. Allerdings ist zu berücksichtigen, dass die Unterbringung in einem Zwinger für junge und soziale Hunde langfristig belastend sein kann. Ohne zeitnahe

About Tixi + Pixi

What life with Tixi + Pixi looks like

Tixi + Pixi is a puppy mixed breed dog waiting at SOS Strassenhunde in Sos Strassenhunde.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇨🇭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 Tixi + Pixi, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Tixi + Pixi?
Use the "View on shelter website" button on this page, which takes you to the shelter's own page. SOS Strassenhunde handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Tixi + Pixi on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Tixi + Pixi 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 SOS Strassenhunde whether they will for Tixi + Pixi, 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 Tixi + Pixi already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
TailHarbor has no vaccination, microchip or sterilization details for Tixi + Pixi. The adoption fee, and what it covers, is set by SOS Strassenhunde, so confirm with them what is included (vaccinations, microchip, sterilization, paperwork) and ask about specific vaccines, recent bloodwork or chronic conditions.
What happens if Tixi + Pixi isn't the right fit?
Many rescues take an animal back if an adoption doesn't work, but policies differ, so ask SOS Strassenhunde about its return policy before you adopt. If things aren't working, talk it through with them early rather than rehoming privately; they know Tixi + Pixi 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.
