How do I contact the shelter about Blacky?

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

Can I adopt Blacky if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutz aktiv Kärnten 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 Blacky 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 Blacky 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 Tierschutz aktiv Kärnten early rather than rehoming privately; they know Blacky 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.

Blacky

Mixed Breed · Male

Hello animal friends! My name is Blacky - I am a mixed-breed male dog, about 8 years old and neutered. I am one of the dogs in the shelter looking for a new home. With the right people who know how to handle me, I can be a real dream dog. However, I bring some problems with me - I am hyperactive, very stressed in new situations, and have leash aggression. Through my leash aggression, I also show redirected aggression. Therefore, I will only be rehomed with people who are already experienced with dogs and who can bring a lot of patience and time for me. On my side, I am unfortunately not an easy dog and need people who are willing to train me consistently. I also get along well with other dogs, can be left alone for a few hours, and ride quietly in the car. If you are interested, you can contact my foster parent at the number provided. She is available daily - including weekends and holidays - from 9 to 20 hours.

Hallo Tierfreunde! Mein Name ist Blacky - ich bin ein circa 8-jähriger kastrierter kleiner Mischlingsrüde, der auf der Suche nach einem neuen Zuhause ist. Ich bin einer der Hunde, von welchen es etliche im Tierschutz gibt. Bei den richtigen Menschen, die wissen wie sie mit mir umgehen, kann ich ein richtiger Traumhund sein. Jedoch bringe ich einige Probleme mit - ich bin hyperaktiv, bin in neuen Situationen sehr gestresst und habe eine Leinenaggression. Durch meine Leinenaggression zeige ich auch eine rückgerichtete Aggression. Daher werde ich ausschließlich an Menschen vermittelt, die bereits hundeerfahren sind sowie viel Geduld und Zeit für mich mitbringen. Vor meiner Seite steht. Ich bin leider kein einfacher Hund und brauche Menschen, die dazu bereit sind mit mir ein konsequentes Training durchzuführen. Weiters verstehe ich mich gut mit anderen Hunden, kann für einige Zeit alleine bleiben und fahre brav im Auto mit. Bei Interesse könnt ihr euch gerne bei meinem Pflegefrauchen unter der Nummer melden. Sie ist täglich - auch an Wochenende und an Feiertagen - zwischen 9 und 20 Uhr erreichbar.

About Blacky

What life with Blacky looks like

Blacky is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutz aktiv Kärnten in Tierschutz Kaernten.

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.
