Switzerland Dog Breed Regulations

The only ban Switzerland applies to dogs is the cropping of the ears and docking of the tail. It is strictly forbidden to bring these dogs into the country.

Additionally, it is important to note that there are several restricted breeds in Switzerland that can only be brought into the country after a few tests. These are considered potentially dangerous and owners must adhere to the strictest regulations.

  • American Staffordshire Terrier
  • Boerbull
  • Bullmastiff
  • Cane Corso
  • And more!

If you still wish to own one of these breeds, we recommend you get in touch with one of our Breed Consultants. Moreover, this list is always changing, which is why you should always check for the latest rules.

They have arrived safe and sound and we have had a lovely day together, exploring their new home. They are currently asleep in the lounge next to me and are a crazy adorable twosome with so much energy, which is wonderful. I now know how hard it was to capture a good picture of them as they move so fast. See attached a few taken after their first Dubai walk!

Thank you so much for all your help, your team has been brilliant. Pinot and Merlot send their love too! Ruff!

One year ago I decided to get a corgi. I tried to find one in Scandinavia where I live big part of the year but it was 3 years waitlist. I searched on the internet and found New Doggy. Contacted them and got immediate response.

Few weeks later they told me I could pick up a corgi. Steve Harding was very nice and professional to deal with and he send me all details and pictures. I had the pleasure to meet Geza and Ami Gunczer at the airport. They came with my little Maxi (Maximilian) and all papers, certificates and his passport and the transport case. All was perfect. Now I have the most lovely and a smart little corgi.
