How do I contact the shelter about Milo?

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

Can I adopt Milo 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 Milo 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 Milo 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 Milo 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.

Milo

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Puppy · 8 months

Hello world! My name is Milo. I came to the animal shelter as part of an official inspection and can finally start looking for my forever home! I am a very sweet and cuddly young dachshund. I am rather unsure around strangers, especially men, and need some time until the ice is broken. As soon as I get to know someone, I show myself very affectionate and can't get enough attention. On a leash I walk very well, in training I show myself very motivated and am also relatively house-trained - sometimes an accident happens. With small to medium-sized dogs I get along well, but at first I have a lot of fear of large dogs. Healthwise I show myself largely unremarkable, but I bring the breed-typical construction sites in my musculoskeletal system.I am looking for a home in a quiet residential area with loving people who also already have some dog experience. It would be nice if you could already have a dog at your place, children should already be in their teenage years. I'm still young and have to learn a lot, but together we can definitely do it?Do you want to get to know me?Your Milo

Hallo Welt!Mein Name ist Milo.Im Zuge einer behördlichen Abnahme kam ich ins Tierheim und darf mich jetzt endlich auf die Suche nach meinem Für-Immer-Zuhause machen!Ich bin ein sehr lieber und verschmuster junger Dackelbub. Fremden Menschen, vor allem Männern, gegenüber zeige ich mich eher unsicher und benötige ein wenig Zeit bis das Eis gebrochen ist. Sobald ich jemanden kenne zeige ich mich sehr anhänglich und kann gar nicht genug Aufmerksamkeit bekommen. An der Leine gehe ich sehr brav, im Training zeige ich mich sehr motiviert und bin auch schon relativ stubenrein - ab und zu passiert mir noch ein Hoppala.Mit kleinen bis mittelgroßen Hunden bin ich gut verträglich, vor großen Hunden habe ich zu Beginn große Angst.Gesundheitlich zeige ich mich weitestgehend unauffällig, ich bringe aber die rassetypischen Baustellen im Bewegungsapparat mit.Ich suche ein Zuhause in einer ruhigen Wohngegend bei lieben Menschen die auch schon ein wenig Hundeerfahrung mitbringen. Gerne kann schon ein Hund bei dir wohnen, Kinder sollten schon im Teenageralter sein. Ich bin noch jung und muss noch einiges lernen, aber gemeinsam schaffen wir das bestimmt?Willst du mich kennenlernen?Dein Milo

About Milo

What life with Milo looks like

Milo is a medium-sized puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein St. Pölten in St. Pölten.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇦🇹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.
