Benno

Mixed Breed · Unknown

Notfall - bitte bei Fr. Lochmann melden unter Das ist Benno. Benno ist ein 5 Jähriger Schäfer-Bernersennenhundmischling. Er wurde kastriert und gechipt. Anfangs hat er Privatstunden mit einer Hundetrainerin gemacht, diese wurden jedoch seitens des Besitzers bald eingestellt.Seit drei Jahren ist er nur mehr im Haus und Garten. Leider wurde auch das Spazierengehen komplett vernachlässigt. Er ist stark übergewichtig und an der Fellpflege mangelt es. Zudem ist er ängstlich gegenüber anderen Hunden und reagiert dementsprechend hinter dem Zaun. Es ist noch nie zu einer Konfrontation gekommen, deshalb kann ich auch nicht sagen, ob er aggressiv reagieren oder beißen würde. Auf Menschen ist er sehr lieb und reagiert eher ängstlich. Mit Kindern ist er nicht vertraut. Er wurde an der BH wegen Vernachlässigung gemeldet. Die Amtstierärztin hat mich (die Nichte des Besitzers) gebeten, für Benno einen ordentlichen und baldigen Platz zu finden. Der Besitzer ist nämlich gezwungen, in eine kleine Wohnung zu ziehen und kann/ darf den Hund nicht mitnehmen bzw behalten.

About Benno

What life with Benno looks like

Benno is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Hallein in Hallein.

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 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Benno, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Benno?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Hallein handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Benno on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Benno if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Hallein 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 Benno 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 Benno 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 Tierheim Hallein early rather than rehoming privately; they know Benno 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.
