Roxi

Male · Senior · 10 years

Due to his background, Roxi is an initially shy male dog who will need time to settle in and "adjust" in his new home. While at Sonnenhof Shelter, Roxi has already learned a lot, but further support would be beneficial in his new home. Once the trust of the male dog is earned, he becomes a very affectionate and friendly companion who enjoys the company of his family and likes to accompany them on walks. The male dog gets along well with other dogs. Roxi would be very happy with a family in a rural area. Tierschutzhaus Sonnenhof Franz von Assisi-Strasse 1 | 7000 Eisenstadt | ZVR E-MAIL:

DE·Show original

Aufgrund seiner Vorgeschichte ist Roxi ein anfangs schüchterner Rüde, der im neuen Zuhause Zeit benötigen wird, um sich einzuleben und "anzukommen". Während seines Aufenthaltes im Sonnenhof durfte Roxi bereits einiges erlernen, möchte im neuen Zuhause aber weiterhin gefördert werden. Hat man das Vertrauen des Rüden erst gewonnen, wird Roxi zu einem sehr anhänglichen und freundlichen Gefährten, der die Nähe seiner Familie genießt und diese auch gerne bei Spaziergängen begleitet. Mit anderen Hunden zeigt sich der Rüde gut verträglich. Roxi würde sich sehr über eine Familie in ländlicher Wohngegend freuen.

About Roxi

What life with Roxi looks like

Roxi is a senior dog waiting at Sonnenhof Eisenstadt (Sonnentiere) in Austria.

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; fees typically range €150–€350.

Frequently asked

Adopting Roxi, answered.

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