Dog pound near Biel?

Hey, does anybody know of a dog pound where they have a good number of dogs/pups I could look at with the intention to adopt one?

Biel - maybe Bern also?

Thanks

Re: Dog pound near Biel?

You can check this site: http://heimatlos.tierschutz.ch/#

That one has an "interactive" map which allows you to click the flag representing the canton of your interest... or you can click the type of pet you're interested in, this list is sorted by date but the description includes the canton.

Generally the descriptions for the animals are done in the language of the canton... most of them are short enough that a quick copy paste into bablefish produces at least (mostly) understandable translations. (Much like when I was looking for apartment, similar words are seen time and again so "soon" you will be able to get the gist without even needing to get it translated.

You may need to check regulations for that as (from what I understand) some animals that typically live in communities (such as our guinea pigs) are only "available" if you are willing to have at least two.

I am unsure about hamsters but you may want to check it out.

What happend to your Husky?

Your thread from 21.09.09 said you already had a dog or was that only a dream?
By the way, I think in the building where you live Dogs and Cats are not allowed.
You also said in a few threads you were alone in Biel?
In your Thread " Sports League for Kids" you say you have KIDS in Biel.


WHO ARE YOU TRYING TO KID

Salut Zamma
