How do I contact the shelter about Dona?

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

Can I adopt Dona 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 Dona 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 Dona 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 Dona 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.

Dona

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 2 years

"Upbeat Young Fellow" Date of Birth: January 2024 Size: under knee-high Compatible with dogs: depends on sympathy Children in the same household: possible from teenage age Suitable home: on the outskirts of town or in the countryside The young, 2024-born mixed-breed female dog Dona is people-friendly and can be placed with teenagers – however, dog experience is necessary as Dona tends to nudge in stressful situations and must be handled correctly so that this is not punished and the stress level does not rise. Dona is compatible with dogs depending on sympathy. She already knows the harness, but is still unsure on the leash, so she needs a safety harness to prevent her from slipping out backwards. Dona is house-trained with us. We are looking for a quiet home on the outskirts of town or in the countryside for the loving female dog Dona.

„Aufgeweckter Jungspund“ Geburtsdatum: Januar 2024 Größe: unter kniehoch Mit Hunden verträglich: nach Sympathie Kinder im selben Haushalt: ab Teenager-Alter möglich Zuhause gesucht: am Stadtrand oder Land Die junge, 2024 geborene Mischlingshündin Dona ist menschenfreundlich und kann auch zu Teenagern vergeben werden – jedoch sollte Hundeerfahrung vorhanden sein, da Dona in Stress-Situationen zum Zwicken neigt und hier richtig reagiert werden muss, damit dies nicht bestraft wird und dadurch der Stresspegel weiter steigt. Mit Hunden ist Dona nach Sympathie verträglich. Sie kennt bereits das Brustgeschirr, ist an der Leine aber noch unsicher unterwegs, benötigt daher ein Sicherheitsgeschirr, um nicht rückwärts rauszuschlüpfen. Dona ist bei uns stubenrein. Für die liebe Hündin suchen wir ein ruhiges Zuhause am Stadtrand oder Land.

About Dona

What life with Dona looks like

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

An 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 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.
