Adopt Lady

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 6 years

Lady – Our loyal lady dog is searching for her forever home ❤️ Our charming lady dog is a sensitive and rather quiet companion who initially meets new situations and strangers with great insecurity. This insecurity can sometimes be expressed loudly towards strangers. She needs time, patience, and empathetic people who give her the opportunity to build trust at her own pace. Once she has built trust, she shows her wonderful nature: she is incredibly loyal, clingy, and strongly oriented towards her primary caregiver. She would rather spend the entire day with “her” person – whether during relaxed walks, small excursions, or cozy hours at home. The closeness and shared time mean a lot to her. Lady knows how to handle children, cats, and dogs in the household. Due to her resource defense, we wish for her a home as a single princess where she can enjoy full attention. She also tends to defend her trusted people, which is why a clear structure is necessary. For our sensitive lady, we are searching for a patient, structured home with people who can provide her with security and give her the time to settle in at her own pace. Whoever gives her this chance gets a loyal companion who forms a close bond and stands by her person. Lady is a totally adorable and heartwarming mouse that you simply can’t resist. ❤️ Lady is a totally adorable and heartwarming mouse that you simply can’t resist.

Lady – Unsere treue Herzensdame sucht ihr Für-immer-Zuhause ❤️ Unsere charmante Hunde-Dame ist eine sensible und eher ruhige Begleiterin, die neuen Situationen und fremden Menschen zunächst sehr unsicher begegnet. Diese Unsicherheit kann sie Fremden gegenüber auch einmal lautstark äußern. Sie braucht Zeit, Geduld und einfühlsame Menschen, die ihr die Möglichkeit geben, in ihrem eigenen Tempo Vertrauen zu fassen. Hat sie erst einmal Vertrauen aufgebaut, zeigt sie ihr wundervolles Wesen: Sie ist unglaublich treu, anhänglich und orientiert sich stark an ihrer Bezugsperson. Am liebsten verbringt sie den ganzen Tag mit „ihrem“ Menschen – sei es bei entspannten Spaziergängen, kleinen Ausflügen oder gemütlichen Stunden zuhause. Die Nähe und gemeinsame Zeit bedeuten ihr sehr viel. Lady kennt den Umgang mit Kindern, Katzen und Hunden im Haushalt. Aufgrund ihrer Ressourcenverteidigung wünschen wir uns für sie jedoch ein Zuhause als Einzelprinzessin, in dem sie die volle Aufmerksamkeit genießen kann. Sie neigt auch dazu, ihre Bezugspersonen zu verteidigen, weshalb eine klare Struktur nötig ist. Für unsere sensible Dame suchen wir ein geduldiges, strukturiertes Zuhause mit Menschen, die ihr Sicherheit vermitteln und ihr die Zeit geben, in ihrem Tempo anzukommen. Wer ihr diese Chance gibt, bekommt eine loyale Gefährtin, die eine enge Bindung eingeht und ihrem Menschen treu zur Seite steht. Lady ist eine total lustige und herzige Maus, die man einfach nur ins Herz schließen kann. ❤️ Lady ist eine total lustige und herzige Maus, die man einfach nur ins Herz schließen kann. ❤️

About Lady

What life with Lady looks like

Lady is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Dornbirn in Dornbirn.

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: Needs patient, structured home with understanding people who can provide security and time to build trust at her own pace

🇦🇹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 Lady, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Lady?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Dornbirn handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Lady on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Lady if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Dornbirn 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 Lady 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 Lady 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 Tierheim Dornbirn early rather than rehoming privately; they know Lady 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.
