Adopt Strolchi

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 6 years

Strolchi is truly a dream dog - a loyal companion who conquers every heart with his loving nature. He's incredibly affectionate and always seeks closeness to his humans. Despite his loving nature, it's important to set clear boundaries for this 60cm tall boy. When pressured or faced with dominant behavior, this sensitive soul becomes intimidated and overwhelmed, which should be avoided as he may use his teeth out of fear. With other dogs, sympathy decides compatibility. Since Strolchi can become jealous, he desires a home where he can enjoy undivided attention - a single-dog placement would be ideal. Children should be older and know respectful dog handling. No cats in the new home as he would chase them. With loving, consistent leadership and clear rules, he shows his best side - balanced and trusting.

Strolchi – Sensibelchen sucht klare Führung 🤩 Strolchi ist wirklich ein Traumhund durch und durch – ein treuer Begleiter, der mit seinem liebevollen Wesen jedes Herz im Sturm erobert. Er ist unglaublich verschmust und sucht stets die Nähe seiner Menschen. Wer ihn einmal erlebt, spürt sofort, wie viel Wärme und Geborgenheit er zu schenken hat. Als sensibler Hütehund braucht er jedoch klare Regeln und eine verlässliche Führung. Bekommt er diese nicht, neigt er dazu, den Haushalt zu kontrollieren und kann dabei auch seine Zähne einsetzen. Bei zu viel Druck oder einem dominanten Auftreten reagiert er schnell eingeschüchtert und überfordert. Ein Zuhause ohne Kinder und Katzen ist für ihn Voraussetzung. Mit anderen Hunden kann er zusammenleben, allerdings zeigt er gelegentlich Eifersucht und neigt dazu, „seine“ Menschen zu verteidigen – mit konsequenter Führung ist dies jedoch gut händelbar. Mit liebevoller Konsequenz und einer sicheren Bezugsperson wird Strolchi zu einem verlässlichen, anhänglichen Partner, der seinem Menschen mit Vertrauen und Freude begegnet. Wer Strolchi ein Zuhause gibt, gewinnt definitiv nicht nur einen Hund – sondern einen echten Freund fürs Leben, der Dir jeden Tag die Welt ein Stückchen heller macht ♥️. Wer Strolchi ein Zuhause gibt, gewinnt definitiv nicht nur einen Hund – sondern einen echten Freund fürs Leben, der Dir jeden Tag die Welt ein Stückchen heller macht ♥️.

About Strolchi

What life with Strolchi looks like

Strolchi is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Dornbirn in Dornbirn.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

Note from the shelter: Can become jealous and territorial, needs to be only dog in household, may bite when fearful or overwhelmed

🇦🇹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 Strolchi, answered.

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