Groschek

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 6 years

A loving, affectionate male, neutered, born in July 2020, just under knee height, compatible with dogs, teenagers possible in the same household. Looking for a home in a quiet suburban or rural area. The affectionate 2020-born mixed-breed male Groschek is friendly and can also be placed with teenagers. He is also compatible with other dogs, but does not actively seek contact, as he prefers human interaction. Groschek walks well on a leash and is house trained. Due to arthritis, he receives a monthly Librela injection. He can become grumpy only when he has a stomach ache (as all dogs do when they have pain) - in the past, this led to a bite incident with a child who hugged him. We are looking for a loving home for this gentle male in a quiet suburban or rural area.

„Lieber, verschmuster Kerl Geschlecht: männlich, kastriert Geburtsdatum: Juli 2020 Größe: knapp unter kniehoch Mit Hunden verträglich: ja Kinder im selben Haushalt: Teenager möglich Zuhause gesucht: am ruhigen Stadtrand oder Land Der verschmuste, 2020 geborene Mischlingsrüde Groschek ist menschenfreundlich und kann auch zu Teenagern vermittelt werden. Auch mit anderen Hunden ist er verträglich, sucht nur aktiv keinen Kontakt, weil ihm der Mensch wichtiger ist. Groschek geht brav an der Leine und ist stubenrein. Aufgrund von Arthrosen erhält er monatlich seine Librela-Spritze. Nur wenn er Bauchweh hat, kann er grantig werden (wie alle Hunde, wenn sie Schmerzen haben) – hier kam es in der Vergangenheit zu einem Bissvorfall mit einem Kind, dass ihn umarmt hat. Für den lieben Rüden suchen wir ein Zuhause am ruhigen Stadtrand oder Land.”

About Groschek

What life with Groschek looks like

Groschek 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Groschek, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Groschek?: 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 Groschek on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Groschek 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Groschek 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 Groschek 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 Groschek 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.
