Adopt Susi

Mixed Breed · Female

Susi is a spayed Shar Pei mix dog, born in January 2020, who was given up by her owner to the animal shelter of our Hungarian partner organization. She has a sensitive and pleasant temperament, but initially keeps her distance from strangers. After she has made friends, she becomes a loyal companion who stands by her people through thick and thin. Susi pays close attention to what is happening around her, shows curiosity and is very obedient. Her Shar Pei heritage cannot be denied when it comes to sometimes making her own decisions. She is suitable as a family dog, and families with children aged teenagers would have a lot of fun with her. Susi gets along well with other dogs, avoids conflicts, and would be a good choice as a second dog. It is not known how she reacts to cats. She wishes for loving and patient people who have enough free time to spend with her and do not live in the city. Some experience in dog ownership should already be present. The dog has a shoulder height of 43 cm and weighs approximately 14 kg.

Susi ist eine im Jänner 2020 geborene, kastrierte Shar Pei Mischlingshündin, die von ihrem Besitzer im Tierheim unserer ungarischen Partnerorganisation abgegeben wurde. Sie besitzt ein sensibles und angenehmes Wesen, verhält sich fremden Menschen gegenüber zunächst jedoch distanziert. Nachdem sie Freundschaft geschlossen hat, entwickelt sie sich zu einer treuen Gefährtin, die mit ihren Bezugspersonen durch dick und dünn geht. Susi beobachtet aufmerksam, was um sie herum geschieht, zeigt sich neugierig und ausgesprochen gelehrig. Ihre Shar Pei Vorfahren kann sie nicht verleugnen, wenn es darum geht, manchmal eigene Entscheidungen zu treffen. Sie eignet sich als Familienhündin, an der auch Familien mit Kindern ab dem Teenageralter viel Freude hätten. Susi versteht sich bestens mit ihren Artgenossen, geht Konflikten aus dem Weg, und wäre eine gute Wahl als Zweithund. Wie sie auf Katzen reagiert, ist nicht bekannt. Sie wünscht sich liebevolle und geduldige Menschen, die über ausreichend Freizeit verfügen, um sich mit ihr zu beschäftigen und nicht mitten in der Stadt wohnen. Etwas Erfahrung in der Hundehaltung sollte bereits vorhanden sein. Die Hündin hat eine Schulterhöhe von 43 cm und wiegt ca. 14 kg.

About Susi

What life with Susi looks like

Susi is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Animal Care Hungary.

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 Hungary

Hungarian shelters operate at high capacity given the country's stray population. Animals leave sterilized, chipped, and with a passport. Many shelters coordinate transport to Germany, Austria, and the Nordics.

Frequently asked

Adopting Susi, answered.

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