How do I contact the shelter about Floky?

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

Can I adopt Floky 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 Floky 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 Floky 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 Floky 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.

Adopt Floky

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

“Shy Sensibelchen” Gender: male, neutered Date of Birth: June 2021 Size: under knee-high Time in the animal shelter: since September 2023 Gets along with dogs: yes Children in the same household: no Home sought: house with a secure escape-proof garden in the countryside The male mixed-breed dog Floky, born in 2021, has unfortunately not learned much in his previous life. He needs time to build trust, but then he also enjoys cuddles. Currently, Floky already proudly wears his harness and walks nicely on the leash. Dog encounters on the leash still stress him out – here, he needs training with patience and calmness. For him, we are looking for a stress-free, quiet home without children with a secure escape-proof garden in the countryside, preferably alongside a confident second dog for him to orient himself by – this is, however, not a requirement. In the case of an apartment, entry after walks must be possible via the garden, as he is still very insecure indoors and too afraid to enter via a stairwell. This animal can be anxious in unfamiliar situations.

„Schüchternes Sensibelchen“ Geschlecht: männlich, kastriert Geburtsdatum: Juni 2021 Größe: unter kniehoch Im Tierheim seit: Sept. 2023 Mit Hunden verträglich: ja Kinder im selben Haushalt: nein Zuhause gesucht: Haus mit ausbruchsicherem Garten am Land Der 2021 geborene Mischlingsrüde Floky hat in seinem bisherigen Leben leider nicht viel kennen gelernt. Er benötigt Zeit, um Vertrauen aufzubauen, dann genießt er auch seine Streicheleinheiten. Mittlerweile trägt Floky auch schon stolz sein Brusgeschirr und geht brav an der Leine. Hundebegegnungen an der Leine stressen ihn noch – hier benötigt er noch Training mit Geduld und Ruhe. Für ihn suchen wir ein stressfreies, ruhiges Zuhause ohne Kinder mit ausbruchsicherem Garten am Land, gerne an der Seite eines souveränen Zweithundes, an dem er sich orientieren kann – dies ist jedoch keine Bedingung. Im Falle einer Wohnung muss das Betreten nach Spaziergängen über den Garten möglich sein, da sie in Innenräumen noch sehr unsicher und für einen Zugang über ein Stiegenhaus zu ängstlich ist.

About Floky

What life with Floky looks like

Floky 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.

Note from the shelter: Requires secure garden access, cannot use staircases due to anxiety, needs quiet rural environment

🇦🇹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.
