Zsongor

Yorkshire Terrier · Male · Young · 1 year

Zsongor is a sweet dog from Hungary. He was not wanted anymore and was wandering around the streets of Kecskemét. Kind passersby called the animal shelter, and Zsongor was immediately picked up by the shelter workers. Fortunately, he did not end up under the wheels. Since October 8, 2026, he has been waiting "behind bars" for a positive turn in his life. For his people, who show him the sunny sides of life and never leave him behind. Zsongor makes the best of his new life situation, but life in the shelter is not easy and the hardest time for shelter dogs is coming: winter. Zsongor is a fine fellow, a bit shy in the first few minutes, but he thaws with caresses and kind words as soon as he realizes that you mean well and want nothing bad. He is a kind, friendly, sensitive and nice boy who wants to explore the world with his people step by step and enjoys affection and attention. The little one needs a lot of love and closeness and never wants to miss it. He is learning to walk on a leash and still needs to be further developed, just like he needs to go to school to learn some things from the dog multiplication table, but he is smart and will quickly learn what he missed if he is lovingly guided, because he does not want to do anything wrong. Zsongor will certainly be a great companion for his new people and it will be fun to spend time with him and teach him some tricks. Although Zsongor is a small dog, he does not want to be seen as a souvenir, but as a real four-legged friend with all his needs. Just as important to him are rules, structure, leadership and two-legged people, on which he can rely. Zsongor gets along well with his fellow dogs. For our enchanting Zsongor, we are looking for loving and dog-enthusiastic people who will take Zsongor as a real family member, give him a happy and carefree life and where he can show what he has in him. Nice two-legged ones, who give him the time he needs to arrive, where he can determine his own pace and where he finally gets all the love, care, security and warmth he misses so much. Dog-friendly exercise, varied walks and a cozy bed would make Zsongor very happy. Zsongor will certainly develop into a loyal companion who will bring a lot of joy and a lot of love into his new home. To whom may Zsongor give his heart? Zsongor has an underbite. Zsongor can travel from around the end of November 2026 if he has found a home or a foster home.

Ursprungsland: Ungarn Dürfen wir vorstellen: Zsongor heisst dieser herzige Hundemann! Doch auch Zsongor hatte kein Glück, war wohl nicht mehr gewollt und irrte auf den Strassen von Kecskemét orientierungslos umher. Nette Passanten riefen das Menhely und Zsongor wurde umgehend von den Tierheimmitarbeitern abgeholt. Zum Glück kam er nicht unter die Räder. Seit dem 8.10.2026 wartet er sehnsüchtig „hinter Gittern“ auf eine positive Wendung in seinem Leben. Auf seine Menschen, welche ihm die Sonnenseiten des Lebens zeigen und ihn nie mehr im Stich lassen. Zsongor macht das Beste aus seiner neuen Lebenssituation, aber das Tierheimleben ist nicht einfach und die härteste Zeit für die Tierheimhunde steht bevor: Der Winter. Zsongor ist ein feiner Kerl, in den ersten paar Minuten ist er etwas schüchtern, taut aber mit Streicheleinheiten und lieben Worten auf, sobald er merkt dass man es gut mit ihm meint und ihm nichts Böses will. Er ist ein lieber, freundlicher, sensibler und netter Bursche, welcher nun gerne gemeinsam mit seinen Menschen Step by Step die Welt erkunden möchte und sich über Zuneigung und Aufmerksamkeit freut. Der Kleine braucht viel Liebe und Nähe und möchte dies nie mehr missen. Das an der Leine laufen ist er am Lernen und muss noch weiter ausgebaut werden, ebenso sollte er noch die Schulbank drücken, um einige Dinge vom Hundeeinmaleins zu lernen, doch er ist smart und wird das Versäumte schnell intus haben, wenn man ihn liebevoll anleitet, denn er will nichts falsch machen. Zsongor wird seinen neuen Menschen bestimmt ein toller Gefährte sein und es wird Spass machen, mit ihm seine Zeit zu verbringen und ihm ein paar Tricks beizubringen. Auch wenn Zsongor ein kleiner Hund ist, möchte er nicht als Souvenir angesehen werden, sondern als richtigen Vierbeiner mit all seinen Bedürfnissen. Genauso wichtig für ihn sind Regeln, Struktur, Führung und Zweibeiner, auf welche er sich verlassen kann. Mit seinen Artgenossen versteht sich Zsongor gut. Für unseren bezaubernden Zsongor suchen wir liebe und hundebegeisterte Menschen, welche Zsongor als richtiges Familienmitglied aufnehmen, ihm ein glückliches und sorgloses Leben schenken und wo er zeigen kann, was in ihm steckt. Nette Zweibeiner, welche ihm die Zeit geben welche er braucht, um anzukommen, wo er sein Tempo selber bestimmen darf und wo ihm endlich all die Liebe, Fürsorge, Sicherheit und Geborgenheit gegeben wird, welche er so vermisst. Hundegerechte Auslastung, abwechslungsreiche Spaziergänge und ein kuschliges Bettchen, würden Zsongor sehr glücklich machen. Zsongor wird sich bestimmt zu einem treuen Begleiter entwickeln, der viel Freude machen wird und viel Liebe mit in sein neues Daheim bringt. Wem darf Zsongor sein Herz schenken? Zsongor hat einen Vorbiss. Zsongor kann ab ca. Ende November 2026 reisen, wenn er ein Zuhause oder eine Pflegestelle gefunden hat.

About Zsongor

What life with Zsongor looks like

Zsongor is a small young adult yorkshire terrier dog waiting at Animal Happyend in Animal Happyend.

A young 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 Switzerland

Swiss shelters require a home visit (Platzkontrolle) and proof of suitable accommodation. Cantons each have their own additional dog-keeping requirements (e.g. SKN training in some areas). Animals leave sterilized and chipped.

Frequently asked

Adopting Zsongor, answered.

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