Giza

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 6 years

Giza, a sweet and gentle dog, was found wandering alone outside Kecskemét, Hungary. Her past is unknown, and no one reported her missing. She has been a resident of the Kecskemét animal shelter since June 29, 2026. Giza is a friendly, calm, and loving dog, but understandably overwhelmed by her new life in the shelter. She is still very lost and her sad eyes say it all. Giza is a nice, gentle, friendly, and sweet dog, but understandably quite overwhelmed with her new life situation. She is still quite uncertain, reserved, and shy. It is not easy in a shelter, so many other dogs, the noise, the hustle and bustle. We care very much about her and we wish for Giza a paradise on earth. Many petting, a loving home, a soft bed, fine food, regular grooming, beautiful walks, and spending unforgettable hours with her humans, that is what Giza should finally experience. She wants to determine her own pace and explore her new life with the help of her new humans, step by step. She needs a lot of love, closeness, and above all security. Patient people on which she can rely and which give her guidance. Of course, Giza also needs to do some schoolwork at some point, because she has some catching up to do. But under clear and loving guidance, she will definitely have the missed material soon. Giza gets along well with her fellow dogs and is currently (August 11, 2026) integrated into a mixed pack. We are looking for understanding and empathetic dog friends for our lovely Giza, who will let Giza arrive without making demands on her. They will then provide her with a dog-friendly outlet at the right time and offer her a varied and exciting life as a beloved family dog. Where she can go on discovery tours and where she finally gets all the love, security, warmth, and care she has probably never experienced before and where she can lead a happy and fulfilling life. Who can Giza trust? Giza has an underbite and is missing a few teeth. Giza can travel around mid/end of August 2026 if she has found a home or a foster home.

Ursprungsland: Ungarn Und wieder eine bezaubernde Hündin, welche alleine ausserhalb Kecskemét umherirrte. Man fragt sich schon, woher all diese Hunde kommen und warum sie niemand vermisst. Seit dem 29.6.2026 ist die allerliebste Giza eine Bewohnerin des Tierheims in Kecskemét. Über ihre Vergangenheit ist leider nichts bekannt. Bei der Chipkontrolle wurde man nicht fündig und es gab niemand, der sie vermisste. Giza schaut nicht zurück, sondern nur nach vorne und hofft, bald ihr Ticket ins Glück lösen zu dürfen, anzukommen in ihrem neuen Daheim und beschützt in ein neues Leben durchzustarten. Unser Daumen sind gedrückt! Leider ist Giza ist noch sehr verloren im Menhely und ihr trauriger Blick sagt alles. Giza ist eine nette, sanfte, freundliche und liebe Hündin, aber verständlicherweise recht überfordert mit ihrer neuen Lebenssituation. Sie zeigt sich noch recht unsicher, zurückhaltend und schüchtern. Es ist nicht einfach in einem Shelter, so viele andere Hunde der Lärm, die Hektik. Uns liegt sie sehr am Herzen und wir wünschen uns für Giza das Paradies auf Erden. Viele Streicheleinheiten, ein liebevolles Zuhause, ein weiches Bettchen, feines Futter, regelmässige Fellpflege, schöne Spaziergänge und mit ihren Menschen gemeinsam unvergessliche Stunden zusammen verbringen, das alles soll Giza endlich erfahren dürfen. Sie möchte ihr Tempo selber bestimmen und mit Hilfe ihrer neuen Zweibeiner ihr neues Leben erkunden, alles Step by Step. Sie braucht viel Liebe, Nähe und vor allem Sicherheit. Geduldige Menschen, auf welche sie sich verlassen kann und welche ihr Führung geben. Natürlich muss auch Giza zu gegebener Zeit noch etwas die Schulbank drücken, denn da hat sie noch Nachholbedarf. Aber unter klarer und liebevoller Anleitung wird sie das Versäumte bestimmt schnell intus haben. Mit ihren Artgenossen versteht sich Giza gut und wird aktuell (11.8.2026) in ein gemischtes Rudel integriert. Für unsere entzückende Giza suchen wir verständnisvolle und einfühlsame Hundefreunde, welche Giza in Ruhe und ohne Anforderungen an sie zu stellen, ankommen lassen. Sie dann zu gegebener Zeit hundegerecht auslasten und ihr ein abwechslungsreiches und spannendes Leben als geliebter Familienhund bieten. Wo sie auf Entdeckungstour gehen kann und wo sie endlich all die Liebe, Sicherheit, Geborgenheit und Fürsorge bekommt, welche sie vermutlich noch nie erfahren durfte und wo sie ein glückliches und erfülltes Leben führen darf. Wem darf Giza ihr Vertrauen schenken? Giza hat einen Vorbiss und es fehlen ihr ein paar Zähne. Bitte keinen Fragebogen an animal-happyend senden. Bei Interesse dürfen Sie sich gerne an Frau Edith Bruhin wenden. oder per E-Mail:

About Giza

What life with Giza looks like

Giza is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Animal Happyend in Animal Happyend.

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 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 Giza, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Giza?
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 Giza on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Giza 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Giza 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 Giza 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 Giza 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.
