Sunny

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 6 years

Sunny sucht ein neues Zuhause 💜 Sunny ist 6 Jahre alt und wartet schon länger im Tierheim auf Menschen, denen sie vertrauen kann. Sie ist eine sensible Hündin, die Zeit braucht, um sich auf neue Menschen einzulassen. Fremden gegenüber ist sie zunächst sehr skeptisch und misstrauisch. Hat sie einmal Vertrauen gefasst, zeigt sie sich ihrer Bezugsperson gegenüber anhänglich, freundlich, neugierig und lernwillig. 🐶 Verträglich mit anderen Hunden🦮 Kennt das Gehen an der Leine🚗 Das Mitfahren im Auto kennt sie bisher nicht⛈️ Hat Angst vor Gewitter und lauten Umgebungsgeräuschen🏡 Kennt das Leben in einem Haus oder einer Wohnung bisher nicht Was Sunny braucht: Sunny sucht hundeerfahrene Menschen, die viel Zeit, Geduld und Einfühlungsvermögen mitbringen. Sie braucht Menschen, die ihr Sicherheit geben und sie nicht unter Druck setzen, sondern ihr die Zeit lassen, die sie zum Vertrauen braucht. Ideal wäre ein Platz auf dem Land, möglichst ohne Garten, da Sunny über Zäune springt. Ein souveräner Ersthund, an dem sie sich orientieren kann, wäre für sie eine große Hilfe. Da Sunny das Leben in einem Haus oder einer Wohnung noch nicht kennt, muss sie behutsam an ihren neuen Alltag herangeführt werden. Wichtig: Eine längere Kennenlernphase im Tierheim ist Voraussetzung für ihre

About Sunny

What life with Sunny looks like

Sunny is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Garteneden in Klagenfurt.

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.

🇦🇹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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Sunny, answered.

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