How do I contact the shelter about Cira Jr?

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 Cira Jr on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Cira Jr 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 Cira Jr 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 Cira Jr 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 Cira Jr 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.

Cira Jr

American Staffordshire Terrier · Female · 2 years

“Reserved at first, then lively” Breed: American Staffordshire Terrier Date of Birth: December 2021 Size: slightly under knee-high Children in the same household: no Home sought: in the countryside, without children, without other animals, experience with dogs that were raised to be good with children, to be of advantage The American Staffordshire Terrier-female dog Cira Jr. was friendly with people after an initial getting-to-know phase, but at the beginning – until she built up trust – was unsure and therefore shy. Cira Jr. had not learned much in her previous life. She was kept and seized in a cellar. Cut off from the outside world in her past, she begins to catch up on the first things here in small steps. Now, the loving female dog knows a harness, muzzle, and leash and masters her first walks in the green. For the insecure female dog, we are looking for a home in the countryside. This should be quiet and childless so that she can also relax. People who are interested in Cira Jr. must be willing to get to know her over a longer period of time (patronage with adoption, support by our trainers).

„Erst zurückhaltend, dann aufgeweckt“ Rasse: American Staffordshire Terrier Geburtsdatum: Dez. 2021 Größe: knapp unter kniehoch Kinder im selben Haushalt: nein Zuhause gesucht: am Land, ohne Kinder, ohne andere Tiere, Erfahrung mit Hunden, die reizarm aufgewachsen sind, von Vorteil Die 2021 geborene American Staffordshire Terrier-Hündin Cira Jr. ist nach einer Kennenlernphase menschenfreundlich, anfangs jedoch – bis sie Vertrauen aufgebaut hat – unsicher und daher schüchtern. Cira Jr. hat in ihrem bisherigen Leben nicht viel kennen gelernt. Sie wurde in einem Keller gehalten und beschlagnahmt. Von der Außenwelt in ihrer Vergangenheit abgeschottet, beginnt sie bei uns in kleinen Schritten die ersten Dinge nachzuholen. Mittlerweile kennt die liebe Hündin Brustgeschirr, Maulkorb und Leine und meistert ihre ersten Spaziergänge im Grünen. Für die unsichere Hündin suchen wir ein Zuhause am Land. Dieses sollte ruhig und kinderlos sein, damit sie auch entspannen kann. Menschen, die sich für Cira Jr. interessieren, müssen bereit sein, sie über einen längeren Zeitraum (Patenschaft mit Übernahme, Unterstützung durch unsere Trainer) kennenzulernen.

About Cira Jr

What life with Cira Jr looks like

Cira Jr is a small adult american staffordshire terrier 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.
