Leni

Dachshund · Unknown

🐾 Dackeldame Leni sucht ihr Für-immer-Zuhause! 🐾 Dürfen wir euch unsere Leni vorstellen? ❤️ Leni ist eine etwa 5 Jahre alte, weibliche und bereits sterilisierte Dackeldame. Sie kam aus nicht optimalen Haltungsbedingungen zu uns und ist nun auf der Suche nach einem liebevollen Zuhause, in dem sie endlich ankommen darf. Fremden Menschen gegenüber zeigt sich Leni anfangs noch etwas schüchtern und zurückhaltend. Hat sie jedoch erst einmal Vertrauen gefasst, kommt ihre quirrlige, lebhafte und fröhliche Seite zum Vorschein. 🥰 Für Leni suchen wir ein Zuhause ohne Kinder, bei geduldigen und einfühlsamen Menschen, die ihr die nötige Zeit geben, um in Ruhe Vertrauen aufzubauen. Auch das Hunde-ABC darf noch etwas geübt werden: Vor allem bei den Grundkommandos hat Leni noch Nachholbedarf. Ihre zukünftigen Menschen sollten daher Freude daran haben, mit ihr zu trainieren und gemeinsam weiterzulernen. Wer möchte unserer Leni zeigen, wie schön ein liebevolles Hundeleben sein kann? 🏡❤️ Larry 24680, Moe 24681 u. Curly 24682

About Leni

What life with Leni looks like

Leni is a dachshund dog waiting at Landestierschutzverein Steiermark in Graz.

A 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. Shelters often include spay/neuter, microchip, and vaccinations, but confirm with the shelter what your adoption covers.

Frequently asked

Adopting Leni, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Leni?
Use the "View on shelter website" button on this page, which takes you to the shelter's own page. Landestierschutzverein Steiermark handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Leni on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Leni if I live in another country?
Often, but it depends on the shelter and the countries involved. Some rescues place animals abroad and some only adopt out locally, so ask Landestierschutzverein Steiermark whether they will for Leni, what they require (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 Leni already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Landestierschutzverein Steiermark lists Leni as neutered or spayed. The adoption fee, and what it covers, is set by Landestierschutzverein Steiermark, so confirm with them what is included (vaccinations, microchip, sterilization, paperwork) and ask about specific vaccines, recent bloodwork or chronic conditions.
What happens if Leni isn't the right fit?
Many rescues take an animal back if an adoption doesn't work, but policies differ, so ask Landestierschutzverein Steiermark about its return policy before you adopt. If things aren't working, talk it through with them early rather than rehoming privately; they know Leni 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.
