Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 2 years

Maki 🩷 ANTO 📍 Location: Croatia, near Slavonski Brod - can be visited on site at any time 🐾 General information: • Name: Maki • Age: born on 06.09.2024 • Gender: female • Breed: Šarplaninac (purebred) 🐾 Health: • General condition: healthy, strong, and recovered after complete wound healing • Fully vaccinated, vaccinated against rabies, chipped & EU pet passport available • Neutered soon • Weight: approx. 40 kg • Size: approx. 58 cm The descriptions of the dogs by the caretakers are based on current impressions on site and do not guarantee the future behavior or development of the dog. 🐾 Character & behavior: Maki is an imposing, noble appearance with the heart of a gentle lamb. The purebred Šarplaninka female is aware of her size, is completely at ease with herself, and shows no nervousness or intolerance towards others. She impresses with her good-natured, loyal character and gets used to new people surprisingly quickly. Maki loves children and behaves exemplary when dealing with them. Nevertheless, children in the household should already be older and more stable due to their weight and size. The gentle giant also shows herself from her best side in everyday life: She is completely house-trained and can be led on a leash. For her full happiness, she wishes for a home where her herd guardian genes can live out in controlled ways. A home with a large, sufficiently secured garden would be ideal for her. 🐾 Her story: Maki's past is marked by disappointment, but also by rescue: Her former owner moved to Germany and simply left the faithful dog behind. A man named Ante who loves animals noticed her and one day noticed a deep wound on her back, caused by a maggot infestation. He did not hesitate, brought Maki to the vet immediately, and had the serious injury treated for a month. Thanks to this quick intervention, the wound has completely healed, and Maki is ready to give her heart to a new family. 🐾 Dream home: • House with a well-secured garden is ideal for the breed and size • People with experience with herding dogs • People who want to give her time to settle in and integrate her into their family, older, stable children in the household possible 💌 How you can help: ❣️ Adopt ❣️ Offer a foster home ❣️ Sponsorship ❣️ Share - so Maki can find her family 🐾❤️ Maki is looking for a home

Sie besticht durch ihren gutmütigen, loyalen Charakter und gewöhnt sich erstaunlich schnell an neue Menschen. Maki ist überaus kinderlieb und verhält sich im Umgang mit ihnen vorbildlich.

About Maki

What life with Maki looks like

Maki is a large young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Hund sucht Hütte in Austria.

A young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 Maki, answered.

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