Bütyök

Dachshund · Male · Young · 3 years

Bütyök came from Gypsies together with his companion Csitri and now lives at our partner animal shelter in Siófok, Hungary. At first he was very mistrustful, but his caretakers and the volunteer helpers have shown him that there is really nothing to fear from two-legged creatures. Slowly the charming dog-man is opening up and also gets along well with the other dogs at the shelter. Bütyök is very attached to his companion, though both will be separated after neutering, since his friend already has a foster placement she will be moving into. For Bütyök we are looking for a family who will show the dachshund-man his first steps into his new life with patience and empathy. He still has a lot to learn, because, like most dogs that come from Gypsies, he was left to fend for himself.

DE·Show original

Bütyök kam mit seiner Gefährtin Csitri von Zigeunern und lebt nun in unserem Partnertierheim in Siofok/Ungarn. Anfangs war er sehr misstrauisch, doch seine Pfleger und die freiwilligen Helfer haben ihm gezeigt, dass von Zweibeinern eigentlich nichts zu befürchten ist. Langsam taut der bezaubernde Hundemann auf und versteht sich auch mit den anderen Hunden im Tierheim gut. Bütyök hängt sehr an seiner Gefährtin, wobei beide nach der Kastration voneinander getrennt werden, da seine Freundin bereits eine Pflegestelle hat, die sie beziehen wird. Für Bütyök suchen wir eine Familie, die dem Dackelmann die ersten Schritte in seinen neuen Leben mit Geduld und Einfühlungsvermögen zeigt. Er muss noch viel lernen, denn er war wie die meisten Hunde, die von Zigeunern stammen, sich selbst überlassen.

About Bütyök

What life with Bütyök looks like

Bütyök is a small young adult dachshund dog waiting at Hundehilfe Marika e.V. in Germany.

A young 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 Germany

German rescues typically require an in-person home visit (Vorkontrolle) or detailed video home check before approving adoption. Many dogs and cats leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport, but this varies by shelter, so confirm what is included with the shelter.

Frequently asked

Adopting Bütyök, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Bütyök?: Use the "View on shelter website" button on this page, which takes you to the shelter's own page. Hundehilfe Marika e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Bütyök on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Bütyök if I live in another country?: Often, but it depends on the shelter and the countries involved. Some rescues place animals abroad and some only adopt out locally, so ask Hundehilfe Marika e.V. whether they will for Bütyök, what they require (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Bütyök already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: Hundehilfe Marika e.V. lists Bütyök as neutered. The adoption fee, and what it covers, is set by Hundehilfe Marika e.V., so confirm with them what is included (vaccinations, microchip, sterilization, paperwork) and ask about specific vaccines, recent bloodwork or chronic conditions.
What happens if Bütyök isn't the right fit?: Many rescues take an animal back if an adoption doesn't work, but policies differ, so ask Hundehilfe Marika e.V. about its return policy before you adopt. If things aren't working, talk it through with them early rather than rehoming privately; they know Bütyök 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.
