Mickey

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 4 years

Hallo, ich bin Mickey!Ich kam im Zuge einer behördlichen Abnahme ins Tierheim und bin nun auf der Suche nach einem ruhigen und liebevollen Zuhause, in dem ich Sicherheit und Vertrauen finden darf.Ich bin ein freundlicher, neugieriger Rüde, der neuen Menschen und Situationen zunächst noch sehr unsicher gegenübersteht. Ich brauche etwas Zeit, um mich an neue Dinge zu gewöhnen, und wünsche mir verlässliche Bezugspersonen, die mir dabei Sicherheit geben und mich unterstützen, wenn mir die Welt einmal etwas zu gruselig erscheint. Mit Menschen, denen ich vertraue, gehe ich dafür durch Dick und Dünn. Spaziergänge machen mir große Freude und meine Neugier hilft mir dabei, immer mutiger zu werden. Mit anderen Hunden bin ich je nach Sympathie verträglich und auch auf Katzen reagiere ich positiv. Gesundheitlich zeige ich mich derzeit unauffällig.Für mein neues Zuhause wünsche ich mir eine ruhige Wohnumgebung und liebe Menschen, die mir die Zeit geben, die ich brauche, um richtig anzukommen. Ich möchte lernen, dass ich mich auf meine Menschen verlassen kann und die Welt gar nicht so beängstigend ist, wie sie manchmal scheint. Auch rüstige Senioren, die Freude an gemütlichen Spaziergängen und einem treuen Begleiter haben, könnten gut zu mir passen.Wenn du mir mit Geduld und Verständnis zeigen möchtest, wie schön ein Hundeleben sein kann, dann melde dich gerne im Tierheim und lerne mich persönlich kennen.Dein Mickey

About Mickey

What life with Mickey looks like

Mickey is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein St. Pölten in St. Pölten.

An 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; fees typically range €150–€350.

Frequently asked

Adopting Mickey, answered.

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