Adopt Jakobini

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 11 years

Birthdate: March 2015 Size: under knee-high Since in animal shelter: September 2024 Gets along with dogs: yes Possible with children in the same household: quiet teenagers Zuhause gesucht: barrier-free home with a garden in the countryside The playful, 2015-born mixed-breed male dog Jakobini was initially shy and cautious, but then became playful and people-friendly, and can also be given to teenagers. Jakobini is dog-friendly, house-trained, and now knows a harness and leash. In the animal shelter, he is still panicky on the move due to his anxiety. Because of his arthritis, the dear dog senior receives medication to interrupt the pain transmission. For the dear dog parent, we are searching for a barrier-free home in the form of a house with a garden in the countryside.

Geburtsdatum: März 2015 Größe: unter kniehoch Im Tierheim seit: Sept. 2024 Mit Hunden verträglich: ja Kinder im selben Haushalt: ruhige Teenager möglich Zuhause gesucht: barrierefreies Haus mit Garten am Land Der lustige, 2015 geborene Mischlingsrüde Jakobini ist anfangs schüchtern und vorsichtig, dann aber lustig, menschenfreundlich und kann auch zu Teenagern vergeben werden. Jakobini ist hundeverträglich, stubenrein und kennt mittlerweile Brustgeschirr und Leine. Im Tierheim ist er angstbedingt noch panisch unterwegs. Wegen seiner Arthrosen erhält der liebe Hundesenior Medikamente, um die Schmerzweiterleitung zu unterbrechen. Für den lieben Hunde-Opi suchen wir ein barrierefreies Zuhause in Form von Haus mit Garten am Land.

About Jakobini

What life with Jakobini looks like

Jakobini is a medium-sized senior mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutz Austria in Vienna.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇦🇹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 Jakobini, answered.

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