Sly

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 8 years

Male, neutered, born April 2018, slightly above knee height, dog-friendly, children in the same household: stable, from school age possible, looking for a home: city-taugable, lift-accessible advantage, knows the lift The loving 2018-born mixed-breed male Sly is friendly and can also be given to stable children (approx. from school age). Sly is also well-suited with other dogs. The gluttonous male walks nicely on a leash, is house-trained, rides nicely in the car and was also able to stay alone for some time in his last home. Sly is city-taugable, due to a paw malformation he is currently taking painkillers and his home should be equipped with a lift in case of a staircase, better would be barrier-free.

Geschlecht: männlich, kastriert Geburtsdatum: April 2018 Größe: knapp über kniehoch Mit Hunden verträglich: ja Kinder im selben Haushalt: standfest, ab Schulalter möglich Zuhause gesucht: stadttauglich, barrierefrei von Vorteil, kennt Lift Der liebe, 2018 geborene Mischlingsrüde Sly ist menschenfreundlich und kann auch zu standfesten Kindern (ca. ab Schulalter) vergeben werden. Auch mit anderen Hunden ist Sly gut verträglich. Der verfressene Rüde geht brav an der Leine, ist stubenrein, fährt brav im Auto mit und konnte in seinem letzten Zuhause auch einige Zeit alleine bleiben. Sly ist stadttauglich, aufgrund einer Pfotenfehlstellung erhält er aktuell Schmerzmittel und sein Zuhause sollte im Falle eines Stiegenhauses mit Lift ausgestattet sein, besser wäre barrierefrei.“

About Sly

What life with Sly looks like

Sly is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutz Austria in Vienna.

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 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 Sly, answered.

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