How do I contact the shelter about Tschisi?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Wiener Tierschutzverein handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Tschisi on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Tschisi if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Wiener Tierschutzverein 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 Tschisi 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 Tschisi 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 Wiener Tierschutzverein early rather than rehoming privately; they know Tschisi 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.

Tschisi

American Staffordshire Terrier · Male

"Jolly power package seeks fit human" Breed: American Staffordshire Terrier-mixed breed Gender: male, to be neutered soon Date of birth: Oct. 2024 Height: just over knee-high Gets along with dogs: according to the previous owner, yes with female dogs, depends on sympathy with male dogs – we cannot confirm this at the moment as Tschisi is very stressed in the animal shelter and a direct contact with fellow animals at this stress level is not possible. Learning to walk on a loose leash is something he still needs to learn with reward-based training. Also, being alone in the run is hard for him, so this could be an issue in his future home – therefore, there must be enough time available to gradually get him used to it or a backup (dog sitter) must be present. Due to his stress level (including during dog encounters) and because he has mostly lived outdoors so far, we are looking for a home with a garden in the countryside for Tschisi, with people who are willing to train. However, Tschisi must not be left unattended in the garden, as he can jump to the top of a 2.2m high fence from a standing position.

„Lustiges Kraftpaket sucht fitten Menschen“ Rasse: American Staffordshire Terrier-Mischling Geschlecht: männlich, demnächst kastriert Geburtsdatum: Okt. 2024 Größe: knapp über kniehoch Mit Hunden verträglich: lt. Vorbesitzer mit Hündinnen ja, Rüden nach Sympathie Kinder im selben Haushalt: ab Teenager-Alter möglich Zuhause gesucht: Haus mit Garten am Land Der aufgeweckte, 2024 geborene American Staffordshire Terrier-Mischlingsrüde Tschisi ist menschenfreundlich und kann auch zu Teenagern vergeben werden. Das Energiebündel ist laut Vorbesitzer mit Hündinnen verträglich, bei Rüden entscheidet die Sympathie – dies können wir derzeit nicht bestätigen, da Tschisi im Tierheim sehr gestresst ist und ein direkter Kontakt zu Artgenossen mit diesem Stresslevel nicht möglich ist. Das Gehen an der lockeren Leine möchte er noch mittels belohnungsorientiertem Training erlernen. Auch das Alleinesein im Zwinger fällt ihm schwer, könnte daher in seinem zukünftigen Zuhause auch ein Thema sein – daher muss ausreichend Zeit vorhanden sein, in kleinschrittig daran zu gewöhnen bzw. ein Backup (Hundesitter) vorhanden sein. Für Tschisi suchen wir aufgrund seines Stresslevels (auch bei Hundebegegnungen) und weil er bisher fast nur draußen gelebt hat, ein Zuhause mit Garten am Land, bei Menschen, die Trainingsbereitschaft mitbringen. Im Garten darf Tschisi jedoch nicht unbeaufsichtigt sein, da er aus dem Stand problemlos an die Oberkante eines 2,2m hohen Zaunes springen kann.

About Tschisi

What life with Tschisi looks like

Tschisi is a small adult american staffordshire terrier dog waiting at Wiener Tierschutzverein 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.
