Irisz

Mixed Breed · Female

Irisz lived as a street dog with many other dogs and was then brought to the killing shelter in Egyek. There she waited a long time for a home, but no one wanted to take the charming female dog. As a former street dog, Irisz is very shy and anxious. We hope that she will soon realize that she can trust us. With the other dogs at the animal shelter, she gets along very well. For Irisz, we are looking for a quiet and experienced home with a house and garden in a quiet area, preferably with an already established confident dog.

Irisz lebte mit vielen anderen Hunden auf der Straße und wurde dann in die Tötungsstation nach Egyek gebracht. Dort wartete sie eine lange Zeit lang auf ein Zuhause, aber niemand wollte die liebe Hündin adoptieren. Nun versuchen wir es für sie ein Zuhause zu finden. Anfangs war Irisz in unserem Partnertierheim noch schüchtern und ängstlich. Jedoch konnte sie im Laufe ihres Aufenthalts Vertrauen entwickeln und ist offner geworden. Natürlich muss sie noch einiges lernen, wenn sie in einem Zuhause ankommen darf, aber wir sind sehr zuversichtlich, dass sie das gut schaffen kann. Mit den anderen Hunden im Tierheim kommt sie sehr gut zurecht und ist regelmäßig mit einer großen Gruppe im Zwinger zusammen. Für Irisz suchen wir ein ruhiges und mit Tierschutzhunden erfahrenes Zuhause mit Haus und Garten in ländlicher Umgebung, möglichst mit einem bereits vorhandenen souveränen Hund, an dem sie sich zusätzlich orientieren kann.

About Irisz

What life with Irisz looks like

Irisz is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Herz für Ungarnhunde e.V. in Nörten-Hardenberg.

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 Germany

German rescues typically require an in-person home visit (Vorkontrolle) or detailed video home check before approving adoption. Animals leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with a valid EU pet passport. Adoption fees usually fall between €250 and €450, covering veterinary preparation.

Frequently asked

Adopting Irisz, answered.

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