Snoopy

Chihuahua · Male · Adult · 5 years

„Zwerg sucht respektvolle Menschen Rasse: Chihuahua-Malteser-Mischling Geburtsdatum: November 2021 Größe: unter kniehoch Mit Hunden verträglich: will keinen Kontakt Kinder im selben Haushalt: nein Zuhause gesucht: stadttauglich Der 2021 geborene Chihuahua-Malteser-Mischlingsrüde Snoopy benötigt eine kurze Kennenlernphase bei Menschen, Kinder sollten jedoch nicht im selben Haushalt leben. Snoopy ist zwar klein, seine Körpersprache muss aber genau erkannt werden, denn er mag es nicht fixiert zu werden und lässt sich dies auch nicht gefallen – dies ist beim Handling im Alltag zu respektieren und auch beim Tierarzt eine Herausforderung. Anderen Hunden gegenüber ist er unsicher, er toleriert sie in seiner Nähe, möchte aber Ruhe und ausreichend Abstand. Snoopy geht brav an der Leine und ist bei uns stubenrein. Er kennt die Grundkommandos und konnte in seinem letzten Zuhause auch kurze Zeit alleine bleiben. Snoopy ist stadttauglich.“

About Snoopy

What life with Snoopy looks like

Snoopy is a small adult chihuahua 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 Snoopy, answered.

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