Rókus

Vizsla · Male · Adult · 6 years

Rókus - a lovable dog is looking for a home Rókus is a approximately 6-year-old Vizsla mix male and a very sweet, cuddly dog. He is friendly and affectionate towards people. He is generally friendly to everyone except for male dogs. Rókus is rather anxious. Many everyday situations and even direct interactions can trigger uncertainty or fear in him. Therefore, he needs people who give him security with patience, calmness and a lot of encouragement - even when starting a walk. Rókus was taken from the ASKA Shelter. He has now become much more open. He is a great companion who is very happy about loving attention. However, Rókus does not want to share his ball, which he enthusiastically retrieves, and his bone with other dogs. Clear rules and consideration are needed here. Rókus is looking for a quiet, understanding home where he can build trust and become more confident step by step. The usual laboratory test showed that Rókus tested positive for heartworms. Treatment was of course started immediately. You can find more information about this disease on our website. The mediator would also be happy to provide information about it. Like all our protégés, Rókus will not be placed in a kennel. Location: Füle (Hungary).

20.07.2026 Rókus – ein liebenswerter Hundeherr sucht sein Zuhause Rókus ist ein ca. 6-jähriger Vizsla-Mix-Rüde und ein sehr lieber, verschmuster Hund. Menschen gegenüber ist er freundlich und anhänglich. Grundsätzlich ist er mit allen freundlich, ausser mit Rüden. Rókus ist eher ängstlich. Viele Alltagssituationen und auch direkte Interaktionen können bei ihm Unsicherheit oder Angst auslösen. Deshalb braucht er Menschen, die ihm mit Geduld, Ruhe und viel Zuspruch Sicherheit geben – auch beim Start zum Spaziergang. Rókus wurde aus dem Shelter ASKA geholt. Inzwischen ist er deutlich aufgetaut. Er ist ein toller Begleiter, der sich über liebevolle Zuwendung sehr freut. Seinen Ball, den er begeistert apportiert, und seinen Knochen möchte Rókus allerdings nicht mit anderen Hunden teilen. Hier braucht es klare Regeln und Rücksicht. Rókus sucht ein ruhiges, verständnisvolles Zuhause, in dem er Vertrauen aufbauen und Schritt für Schritt sicherer werden darf. Bei der üblichen Laboruntersuchung wurde Rókus positiv auf Herzwürmer getestet. Mit der Behandlung wurde selbstverständlich sofort begonnen. Mehr zu dieser Erkrankung finden sie auf unserer Homepage. Gerne gibt die Vermittlerin hierüber auch Auskunft. Wie alle unsere Schützlinge wird Rókus in keine Zwingerhaltung vermittelt. Aufenthaltsort: Füle (Ungarn).

About Rókus

What life with Rókus looks like

Rókus is an adult vizsla dog waiting at Vizsla in Not e.V. in Germany.

An 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 Germany

German rescues typically require an in-person home visit (Vorkontrolle) or detailed video home check before approving adoption. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Rókus, answered.

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