Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 10 years

My name is Leo and I was born in 2016. I am a sweet mixed breed dog. A spinal cord infarct has severely limited my mobility, but regular physiotherapy should help me get back on my feet. In the meantime, I make the area unsafe with my specially made wheelchair and have fun with my buddies. I really like my fellow dogs, it never gets boring with them. But a family that cares for and loves me would make me really happy. Children living in the household should already be bigger and steady. I could get used to cats, provided I'm given the necessary time to get to know them. A ground-level garden would make life much easier for me and my people. I am a trusting soul of a dog and hope deeply that I will also get the chance to have a home in security. In any case, I am already looking forward to meeting you!

Mein Name ist Leo und geboren wurde ich 2016. Ich bin ein lieber Mischlingsrüde. Ein Rückenmarksinfarkt hat meine Mobilität stark eingeschränkt, doch regelmäßige Physiotherapie soll mir wieder auf die Beine helfen. Dazwischen mache ich mit meinem eigens für mich angefertigten Rollwagen die Gegend unsicher und habe Spaß mit meinen Kumpels. Denn die Artgenossen mag ich wirklich gerne, mit ihnen wird mir nie langweilig. Doch wirklich glücklich würde mich eine Familie machen, die mich umsorgt und liebt. Kinder, die im Haushalt leben, sollten schon größer und standfest sein. An Katzen könnte ich mich gewöhnen, sofern man mir die nötige Zeit zum Anfreunden lässt. Ein ebenerdiger Garten würde mir und meinen Menschen das Leben sehr erleichtern. Ich bin eine treuherzige Seele von Hund und hoffe zutiefst, dass auch ich noch einmal die Chance auf ein eigenes Zuhause in Geborgenheit bekomme. Auf ein Kennenlernen freue ich mich jedenfalls schon sehr!

About Neo

What life with Neo looks like

Neo is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at Pfotenhilfe in Lochen.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇦🇹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 Neo, answered.

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