Charly

Mixed Breed · Male

“Independent Protector” Gender: male, neutered Date of Birth: Aug. 2013 Gets along with dogs: encounters stress him Children in the same household: no Home sought: quiet, childless home in the countryside with garden/yard The imposing dog protector Charly requires a short getting-to-know-you phase with people to dispel his skepticism. We suspect that Charly was only kept in the garden in his last home. Charly seeks people who do not constantly cuddle him. Although he loves cuddles, too much of it he does not enjoy. Due to his age, Charly has already developed some aches and pains in the movement apparatus and therefore receives medication. For Charly, we are looking for a home in the countryside where he is allowed to be in the garden/yard, as he is accustomed to from the past.

„Eigenständiger Beschützer“ Geschlecht: männlich, kastriert Geburtsdatum: Aug. 2013 Mit Hunden verträglich: Begegnungen stressen ihn Kinder im selben Haushalt: nein Zuhause gesucht: ruhiges, kinderloses Zuhause am Land mit Garten/Hof Der stattliche Hundeopi Charly benötigt bei Menschen eine kurze Kennenlernphase, um seine Skepsis abzulegen. Wir vermuten, dass Charly in seinem letzten Zuhause nur im Garten gehalten wurde. Charly sucht Menschen, die ihn nicht ständig knuddeln. Er liebt zwar Streicheleinheiten, aber ein Zuviel mag er nicht. Altersbedingt hat Charly schon Wehwehchen mit dem Bewegungsapparat und erhält daher Medikamente. Für Charly suchen wir ein Zuhause am Land, wo er v.a. im Garten/Hof sein darf, wie er es von früher kennt.

About Charly

What life with Charly looks like

Charly 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 Charly, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Charly?
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 Charly on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Charly 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 Charly 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 Charly 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 Charly 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.
