Welpen

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Puppy · 5 months

We currently have a litter of puppies at our shelter who are ready to leave the shelter walls and discover the world. Above all, they want one thing: to grow up in a loving family. At 12 weeks old, the little ones are in an important development phase. They should now learn as much as possible, gather new impressions, and experience how beautiful life outside the shelter can be. That's why we are urgently looking for great foster homes for them. Unfortunately, growing up in a shelter means they have to give up many things that are so important for their development. Since the puppies are still in an official procedure, they will only be assigned to foster homes for now. As soon as the release is made, their foster families can then adopt them permanently. And one more important note: the little ones will grow up! Their mom has a shoulder height of about 65 cm. We would be thrilled if we could find a great foster home for each of the eight hearts that may soon become their permanent home. If interested: 0676 84 24 17 437 (symbolic image)

Wir haben momentan einen Wurf Welpen bei uns, die genug von Tierheimwänden haben und endlich die Welt entdecken möchten. Vor allem aber wünschen sie sich eines: das Aufwachsen in einer liebevollen Familie. Mit ihren 12 Wochen sind die Kleinen gerade in einer wichtigen Entwicklungsphase. Sie sollten jetzt möglichst viel kennenlernen, neue Eindrücke sammeln und erfahren, wie schön das Leben außerhalb des Tierheims sein kann. Genau deshalb suchen wir ganz dringend tolle Pflegeplätze für sie. Denn im Tierheim aufzuwachsen bedeutet leider auch, dass sie auf vieles verzichten müssen, was für ihre Entwicklung so wichtig wäre. Da sich die Welpen noch in einem behördlichen Verfahren befinden, werden sie vorerst ausschließlich auf Pflegeplätze vergeben. Sobald die Freigabe erfolgt, dürfen ihre Pflegefamilien sie dann fix adoptieren. Und noch ein wichtiger Hinweis: Die kleinen Zwerge werden richtig groß! Ihre Mama hat eine Schulterhöhe von etwa 65 cm. Wir würden uns riesig freuen, wenn wir für jedes der acht Herzen einen tollen Pflegeplatz finden, der vielleicht schon bald zum endgültigen Zuhause werden darf.

About Welpen

What life with Welpen looks like

Welpen is a extra-large puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Arche Noah in Graz.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇦🇹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 Welpen, answered.

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