HIRA - KENT

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 6 years

This loverly girl is Hira and she has been in kennels for the last 6 months. She was originally taken into care due to an issue in the family home with the neighbours who were complaining about the barking. We believe that she spent a significant amount of time outside. The owner was hoping to take her back but has now been encouraged to allow her to find a new home. Hira is spayed and microchipped, but we are unsure whether her vaccinations are up to date. Children: we think that she will be fine with older children over 10 years who have experience of living with a large breed dog. Dogs: she has mixed with all dogs at the kennels without issue. In a new home sensible introductions, but she could live with another dog or happily be the centre of someones world as an only dog. She did live with another dog. Cats: She has not lived with cats, so a cat free home please. Hira loves a ball and also loves to bark at it....maybe she thinks it will do as she asks !! She loves all the girls at kennels , has shown no aggression to anyone, or any other dogs. A beautiful girl who would suit most homes, if you think that she could jopin your familly please get in touch.

About HIRA - KENT

What life with HIRA - KENT looks like

HIRA - KENT is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at German Shepherd Dog Rescue in United Kingdom.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇬🇧Adopting from United Kingdom

UK shelters work under the Pet Travel Scheme (post-Brexit, the EU pet passport is not valid; a UK Animal Health Certificate is required for travel into the EU). Most UK rescues focus on domestic placements but some work with EU partners.

Frequently asked

Adopting HIRA - KENT, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about HIRA - KENT?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. German Shepherd Dog Rescue handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw HIRA - KENT on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt HIRA - KENT if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — German Shepherd Dog Rescue 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. UK adopters: post-Brexit travel into the EU requires an Animal Health Certificate. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is HIRA - KENT 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 HIRA - KENT 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 German Shepherd Dog Rescue early rather than rehoming privately; they know HIRA - KENT 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 (EN). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically.
