How do I contact the shelter about Vinz &#8211?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutzbund Basel Regional handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Vinz &#8211 on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Vinz &#8211 if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutzbund Basel Regional 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 Vinz &#8211 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 Vinz &#8211 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 Tierschutzbund Basel Regional early rather than rehoming privately; they know Vinz &#8211 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.

Vinz &#8211

Mixed Breed · Male

A friendly animal protection organization must reduce its Gnadenhof and unfortunately part ways with some of the animals. We at Tierschutzbund Basel Regional would like to support and are happy to help with the placement of a few dogs. Vinz (60cm, 29kg) is a loving and friendly companion. He loves to cuddle, is interested, active, and social. He is people-oriented and brings you laughter with his playful nature. Initially, he can be a bit cautious with strangers but opens up quickly once a trust is established. He gets along well with other animals, but the two male dogs living on-site are not his favorites. Vinz loves being outside, enjoys long walks, and walks well on a leash. A small prey drive is noticeable. Vinz needs loving and caring people who can handle him calmly, confidently, and affectionately. A rural home with an enclosed garden would be ideal. Vinz is vaccinated, microchipped, and ready for rehoming. If you are interested in our dogs and would like to meet them informally, please apply using the button below, and we will contact you, or the Gnadenhof will contact you as soon as possible. We appreciate your understanding if the processing of your request takes a little longer. We will do our best to provide a response as soon as possible. However, it may happen that many requests come in at once or that our resources are temporarily urgently needed elsewhere.

Eine befreundete Tierschutzorganisation muss ihren Gnadenhof verkleinern und sich dabei leider von einigen Tieren trennen. Wir als Tierschutzbund Basel Regional möchten gerne unterstützen und helfen gerne bei der Platzierung von ein paar Hunden. Vinz (60cm, 29kg) ist ein lieber und freundlicher Weggefährte. Er kuschelt gerne, ist interessiert, aktiv und sozial. Er ist menschenbezogen und bringt einen mit seiner lustigen Art immer wieder zum Lachen. Fremden gegenüber kann er anfangs eher vorsichtig sein, öffnet sich aber rasch, sobald eine Vertrauensbasis da ist. Mit Artgenossen versteht er sich gut, bloss die beiden vor Ort lebenden Rüden mag er nicht. Vinz ist gerne draussen, liebt lange Spaziergänge und läuft gut an der Leine. Einen kleinen Jagdtrieb ist spürbar. Vinz braucht liebe und fürsorgliche Menschen, die ruhig mit ihm, souverän und liebevoll umgehen. Gerne ein ländliches Zuhause mit eingezäuntem Garten. Vinz wird geimpft, gechippt, mit Schutzvertrag und gegen eine Schutzgebühr von CHF 600.– vermittelt. Falls Sie Interesse an unseren Hunden haben und sie unverbindlich kennenlernen möchten, bewerben Sie sich mit untenstehenden Button und wir werden uns, respektive der Gnadenhof wird sich baldmöglichst mit Ihnen in Verbindung setzen. Wir danken für Ihr Verständnis, falls die Bearbeitung Ihrer Anfrage etwas länger dauert. Wir setzen alles daran, so bald wie möglich eine Rückmeldung zu geben. Es kann aber vorkommen, dass sehr viele Anfragen zusammenkommen oder dass unsere Ressourcen temporär dringend anderweitig gebraucht werden.

About Vinz &#8211

What life with Vinz &#8211 looks like

Vinz &#8211 is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzbund Basel Regional.

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.
