How do I contact the shelter about Lord?

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

Can I adopt Lord 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 Lord 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 Lord 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 Lord 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.

Lord

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 4 years

A sensitive but funny 2022-born Herdenschutzhund mix male Lord is people friendly, needs only a short introduction phase. Lord is compatible with other dogs by sympathy, walks nicely on a leash and is house trained. Dog encounters on a leash stress him still, so Lord is looking for people who can give him the necessary calm and patience in encounters. Lord knows basic commands, has lived with a cat in his last home and could stay alone for some time. Lord defends his food - this is however manageable. In his last home there was a bite incident with a child and treats. Lord has spondylosis in the thoracic vertebrae area and therefore receives pain medication if needed. Since Lord as a former chained dog always lived outside, we are looking for a home with a garden on the outskirts or in the countryside, barrier-free would be advantageous in view of his later age.

DE·Show original

Geschlecht: männlich, kastriert Geburtsdatum: November 2022 Größe: knapp über kniehoch Mit Hunden verträglich: nach Sympathie Kinder im selben Haushalt: nein Zuhause gesucht: Haus mit Garten am Stadtrand oder Land, barrierefrei von Vorteil Der sensible, aber lustige, 2022 geborene Herdenschutzhund-Mischlingsrüde Lord ist menschenfreundlich, benötigt nur eine kurze Kennenlernphase. Lord ist mit anderen Hunden nach Sympathie verträglich, geht brav an der Leine und ist stubenrein. Hundebegegnungen an der Leine stressen ihn noch, daher sucht Lord Menschen, die ihm in Begegnungen die nötige Ruhe und Geduld vermitteln können. Lord kennt die Grundkommandos, hat in seinem letzten Zuhause mit Katze gelebt und konnte auch einige Zeit alleine bleiben. Lord verteidigt sein Futter – dies ist aber gut handlebar. In seinem letzten Zuhause kam es jedoch mit einem Kind und Leckerchen zu einem Bissvorfall. Im Bereich der Brustwirbel hat Lord bereits Spondylosen, erhält daher bei Bedarf Schmerzmittel. Da Lord als ehemaliger Kettenhund immer draußen gelebt hat, suchen wir für ihn ein Zuhause mit Garten am Stadtrand oder Land, barrierefrei wäre in Hinblick auf das spätere Alter von Vorteil.“

About Lord

What life with Lord looks like

Lord 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; fees typically range €150–€350.
