Carlos

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

"Sensitive Sensibelchen" Date of Birth: July 2021 In the animal shelter since: February 2022 Gets along with dogs: yes Children in the same household: no Home sought: House with a secure escape-proof garden in the countryside with a second dog to look to for guidance The male mixed-breed dog Carlos, born in 2021, hasn't learned much in his previous life. He needs time to build trust. While Carlos now knows the harness, he still cannot walk on a leash. Therefore, this handsome fellow requires a stress-free, quiet home without children, with a secure escape-proof garden in the countryside, alongside a confident second dog to guide him!

„Schüchternes Sensibelchen“ Geburtsdatum: Juli 2021 Im Tierheim seit: Feb. 2022 Mit Hunden verträglich: ja Kinder im selben Haushalt: nein Zuhause gesucht: Haus mit ausbruchsicherem Garten am Land mit Zweithund Der 2021 geborene Mischlingsrüde Carlos hat in seinem bisherigen Leben nicht viel kennen gelernt. Er benötigt Zeit, um Vertrauen aufzubauen. Mittlerweile kennt Carlos jedoch das Brustgeschirr, an der Leine geht er jedoch noch nicht. Daher benötigt der hübsche Kerl ein stressfreies, ruhiges Zuhause ohne Kinder mit ausbruchsicherem Garten am Land an der Seite eines souveränen Zweithundes, an dem er sich orientieren kann!

About Carlos

What life with Carlos looks like

Carlos is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutz Austria in Vienna.

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 Carlos, answered.

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