How do I adopt an animal from Tierheim am Böhler?
Browse the available animals on this page and pick one you'd like to meet. Then contact Tierheim am Böhler directly using the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar — Tierheim am Böhler handles the adoption process, not TailHarbor.

Can I adopt from Tierheim am Böhler if I live in another country?
Yes. Cross-border adoption within the EU is straightforward thanks to the EU pet passport system. The animal needs to be at least 15 weeks old, microchipped to ISO 11784/11785, and have a valid rabies vaccination administered at least 21 days before travel. Tierheim am Böhler typically handles the vetting, chipping, and passport. The adopter coordinates the transport — common options include rescue networks (NGO-run road transport), professional pet-transport companies, "flight nannies" (volunteer in-cabin couriers), or self-drive pickups for shelters in neighbouring countries.
Is Tierheim am Böhler a verified shelter on TailHarbor?
Tierheim am Böhler is listed on TailHarbor based on data scraped from their own website, but TailHarbor has not yet manually verified the shelter's contact details. We recommend confirming details directly with the shelter before travelling for an adoption visit.
What is the adoption fee at Tierheim am Böhler?
TailHarbor does not track adoption fees — they vary by animal and by shelter, and are set by Tierheim am Böhler directly. Typical fees in Switzerland cover the animal's pre-adoption veterinary care (sterilization, vaccinations, microchip, pet passport). Contact Tierheim am Böhler via the sidebar details for the exact fee for an animal you're interested in.
