Descrição
I am a specialist for really difficult dogs but also for normal ones. I get the most dangerous dogs from Austria and neighboring countries and resocialize them. The animal shelter-like facility for problem dogs that have bitten badly and therefore no one wants to or can own, train or look after them anymore.
The volunteers can learn for life at my place.
In areas of life in general, the topic of problem dogs, improving craftsmanship, learning to take responsibility, and so on...
I was in the special unit for 9 years and since around October 2023 I have resigned for my animals in order to then stay with them continuously and take care of them personally. I put every free minute and every cent into my animals and the more help I receive, the more good I can do for dogs. I am a very honest person and you can actually have anything from me if you help well and take good care of my dogs.

Deixado pelo Workawayer (Karolin) para o anfitrião

The last two and a half weeks I stayed with Georg and his dogs, and it was a really valuable time for me. Work started every day between 6am and 8am, depending on what was on the agenda and the weather. Georg introduced me cleverly to the work at the dog socialisation centre. On the first day, he let me clean the house to familiarise myself with… read more the structure and layout. This meant I knew exactly where all the necessary utensils were. Then he introduced me with feeding the dogs and removing faeces every day, which became part of my routine. It was very interesting to see how the dogs' reactions to me changed over time. I also fed his horses every day; standing in the pasture every morning and watching them eat had a meditative effect on me :D.
Otherwise, the work consisted of a lot of tidying up, cleaning and also construction projects such as building fences. Every task offered the opportunity to learn something new, even if the workload could be challenging at times. However, if you are willing to expand your comfort zone, this is not a problem. It is important to communicate openly when it comes to days off or the length of work - however, at least five effective hours per day is the rule. Anything more than that is appreciated.
Georg can definitly take a harsher tone, but if you don't take it personally or generally don't have a problem with it, you'll get on well. For myself, I learnt a lot from it. He shows his appreciation by rewarding you for good work with activities. I really enjoyed going to the swimming pool with him and his friends, eating in restaurants, watching films together or picking plums. If you can ride a horse, he also takes you on rides. But my personal highlight were the evenings around the campfire and the many entertaining conversations.
There are training sessions on Fridays and Saturdays, where you can watch after the work is done. Different people with different problems and yet you could see a pattern as to where these behavioural problems of the dogs came from. Furthermore, one of the ways Georg funds the centre is by providing holiday care for dogs in order to support the resocialisation of dogs with behavioural problems.
For me personally, my time there was a great opportunity to develop more self-confidence in dealing with dogs. I gained interesting insights into mantrailing and could have learnt even more if I had asked more actively. My tip for future workawayers: If you are interested, you should definitely ask questions - Georg gives you the freedom to decide for yourself how much you want to learn and take away with you.
The surrounding area offers some beautiful places, such as a small stream, where I took dogs, or the swimming pool, which is only a five-minute walk away. The centre is located in an industrial area, but the peace and quiet there and the beautiful sunrises and sunsets are definitely a plus. Another highlight for me was that Georg tackles problems immediately. When my container had a leak, we started repairing the roof in the dark at 9 o'clock in the evening, which I definitely enjoyed since it is a uncommon thing to do at this time.
Georg also showed a lot of trust in me and left the centre to me for a total of three days when he had appointments. So you shouldn't shy away from responsibility here! At one point I was even allowed to spend three days with Margareta, a lovely friend of Georg's, who has three dogs, five sheep and three horses. She was incredibly hospitable and even gave me a home-made farewell present at the end - a beautiful sheep yoga mat.
All in all, it was an eventful time in which I learnt a lot and was able to strengthen aspects of myself that I wanted to be strengthend. Thanks for everything again!

I was staying with Georg at this dog centre for 8 days. He picked me up from Vienna.
There are different tasks with the dogs, in the house, and also some construction work, mainly building doghouses and fence construction. You start work at 7.30am with the dogs, picking up waste, feeding and giving them water, and then moving onto cleaning.
