How do I contact the shelter about Bello?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutzverein St. Pölten handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Bello on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Bello if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutzverein St. Pölten 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 Bello 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 Bello 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 Tierschutzverein St. Pölten early rather than rehoming privately; they know Bello 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.

Bello

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Adult · 8 years

Hi, I am Bello! Lovingly, I am also called “Bebe.” My previous home was unfortunately not the best, and so I am now here at our shelter in St. Pölten, searching for great happiness. I am very people-oriented and enjoy going on adventures with my human friends. The world is full of adventures, and I would love to explore it. I am excited about every walk, and I have already found a few other puppy girls to accompany us. I am house-trained, go nicely on the leash, am super cuddly with familiar people, can already drive a car, and am also very obedient. I wish for a family with experience and patience. I would like to have a bit more time for mutual sniffing. You do not choose your friends in a day, right? A new home with a garden would be great, running through the garden and basking in the sun – that’s what I imagine. I am also happy to share the home with a friendly, sovereign single dog, as I am very social and love to play. Cats, other animals, and small children should not live in my new home. If I appeal to you, you experienced dog people and are ready to visit me often, then please contact the animal shelter. I look forward to your visit!

Hi, ich bin Bello!Mein vorheriges Zuhause war leider nicht das Beste und so bin ich jetzt hier im Tierheim St. Pölten und suche das große Glück.Ich bin sehr menschenbezogen und gehe mit meinen Menschenfreunden gerne auf Entdeckungstouren. Die Welt ist voller Abenteuer und die möchte ich entdecken. Ich freue mich sehr über jeden Spaziergang, ein paar Hundemädels, die uns begleiten, habe ich hier auch schon gefunden.Ich bin stubenrein, gehe brav an der Leine, bin bei vertrauten Personen suuuuper verschmust, kann schon brav Auto fahren und bin auch sehr folgsam. Eine Familie mit Erfahrung und Geduld wünsche ich mir. Ich möchte nämlich ein bisschen mehr Zeit für das gegenseitige Beschnuppern haben. Ihr sucht eure Freunde ja auch nicht an einem Tag aus oder?Gesundheitlich zeige ich ein Herzgeräusch und bekomme Tabletten. Ende Juli 2026 wurden meine Zähne saniert, außerdem wurde ich aufgrund eines gutartigen Hodentumors und einer vergrößerten Prostata kastriert.Ein neues Zuhause mit Garten wäre toll, durch den Garten flitzen und in der Sonne faulenzen - ja das stelle ich mir toll vor. Gerne kann auch schon ein freundlicher, souveräner Ersthund dort wohnen, ich bin nämlich sehr sozial und spiele gerne.Katzen, andere Tiere und kleine Kinder sollten in meinem neuen Zuhause bitte nicht wohnen. Wenn ich euch also gefalle, ihr hundeerfahren seid und bereit seid mich öfters zu besuchen, dann meldet euch bitte im Tierheim.Ich freue mich auf euren Besuch!Euer Bello-Bub

About Bello

What life with Bello looks like

Bello is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein St. Pölten in St. Pölten.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇦🇹Adopting from Austria

Austrian shelters follow the federal Tierschutzgesetz framework: adopters sign a Schutzvertrag (protection contract) committing to the animal's welfare. Spay/neuter, microchip, and vaccinations are included; fees typically range €150–€350.
