Rocky

Cocker Spaniel · Male · Young · 1 year

„Lieber, aktiver Kerl Rasse: Cocker Spaniel Geburtsdatum: Mai 2025 Größe: unter kniehoch Mit Hunden verträglich: ja Kinder im selben Haushalt: Teenager möglich Zuhause gesucht: Stadtrand oder Land Der lebhafte, 2025 geborene Cocker Spaniel – Rüde Rocky ist nach einer kurzen Kennenlernphase menschenfreundlich und kann auch zu Teenagern im selben Haushalt vergeben werden. Auch mit anderen Hunden ist Rocky verträglich. Der lebhafte Rüde kennt das Brustgeschirr und das Gehen an der Leine, zieht jedoch, wenn er etwas interessantes sieht und dorthin möchte, ist auch schnell mal frustriert und bellt dann. Rocky ist stubenrein und fährt brav im Auto mit. Alleine bleiben fällt Rocky sehr schwer. Dies muss im neuen Zuhause kleinschrittig und stressfrei aufgebaut werden bzw. ein Backup (z.B. Hundesitter) vorhanden sein, in seinem bisherigen Zuhause konnte er kurze Zeit alleine bleiben. Für ihn suchen wir ein Zuhause am Stadtrand oder Land.“

About Rocky

What life with Rocky looks like

Rocky is a small young adult cocker spaniel dog waiting at Tierschutz Austria in Vienna.

An young 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Rocky, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Rocky?
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 Rocky on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Rocky 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 Rocky 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 Rocky 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 Rocky 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.
