Kara

Mixed Breed · Female

Previously Ecarisaj Box 104 Sponsor: Claudia M. Flyer for Kara to post, distribute, and spread if you would like to help introduce her: In 2015, Kara gave birth to a puppy at the Ecarisaj, the municipal animal shelter in Cluj. No one noticed that she was pregnant. Both came to a veterinary clinic as an emergency, as Kara had an acute uterine infection and was very unwell. After a period of hoping and fearing that both mother and child would survive, Kara recovered enough to move with her offspring to a boarding facility. She has not shed much of that anxiety to this day. Now she lives in the house with Mara and Paul, but preparing her for the world "out there" takes time, patience, and perseverance, because she knows and can do almost nothing. She is currently practicing walking on a leash. A great advantage, however, is that she is very fond of other dogs, whether female or male, large or small. A confident partner at her side would even help her learn that we humans do not wish her any harm, and that "out there" is not as frightening as it may first appear to her. Kara has a problem with one of her hind legs; Mara suspects a cruciate ligament issue. In September she will travel with her to Alesd to see an orthopedic specialist to clarify things further! Walking on the leash is still not one of her favorite activities, and neither is being touched, but she tolerates it bravely without complaint. Kara has discovered the armchair for herself ;-) Kara has moved into the house, and we hope that she is finally thawing a little. Kara likes Codru, although he does not exactly behave like a gentleman :-). ... and Kara is also accepting the "leading strap" more and more. Kara and Inca, two dogs who also cause us great headaches. They will not be able to make any great progress in a boarding facility, nor with Mara and Paul, because they are simply too "special." People truly experienced with fearful dogs need to take them on, people with time and leisure who know what they are getting into with Kara and Inca. Kara and Inca moved to Mara and Paul's yesterday. They now share a free-run area with Alvin and the two Lillys, who have welcomed them wonderfully into their midst h

vorher Ecarisaj Box 104 Paten: Claudia M. Flyer für Kara zum aushängen, verteilen und verbreiten wenn Sie uns helfen möchten, sie vorzustellen: 2015 hat Kara in der Ecarisaj, dem städtischen Tierheim in Cluj, ein Baby geboren, niemand hat bemerkt, dass sie trächtig war. Beide kamen als Notfall in eine Tierklinik, da Kara eine akute Gebärmutterentzündung hatte und es ihr überhaupt nicht gut ging. Nach einiger Zeit des Hoffen und Bangens, dass Mutter und Kind überleben, war Kara soweit genesen, dass sie mit ihrem Nachwuchs in eine Pension umziehen konnte. Und von dieser Ängstlichkeit hat sie bis heute nicht viel abgelegt. Jetzt lebt sie bei Mara und Paul mit im Haus, doch um sie auf die Welt "da draußen" vorzubereiten bedarf es Zeit, Geduld und Durchhaltevermögen, denn sie kennt und kann so gut wie gar nichts. Das Laufen an der Leine übt sie gerade. Ein großer Vorteil ist aber, dass sie ihre Artgenossen sehr gern hat, gleich ob sie weiblich sind oder männlich, groß oder klein. Und ein souveräner Partner an der Seite ihr sogar eine Hilfe wäre zu lernen, dass wir Menschen ihr nichts Böses wollen, und "da draußen" gar nicht alles so unheimlich ist wie es für sie auf den ersten Blick vielleicht erscheinen mag. Kara hat ein Problem mit einem ihrer Hinterbeine, Mara geht vom Kreuzband aus. Im September fährt sie mit ihr nach Alesd zu einem Orthopäden, um weiteres abzuklären! Das an der Leine laufen gehört immer noch nicht zu ihren Lieblingsbeschäftigungen, und sich anfassen zu lassen ebenso wenig, doch duldet sie es brav, ohne dabei zu murren. Kara hat den Sessel für sich entdeckt ;-) Kara ist ins Haus eingezogen, und wir hoffen, dass sie nun doch etwas auftaut. Kara mag Codru, obwohl er sich nicht gerade wie ein Gentleman benimmt :-). ... und Kara akzeptiert das "Gängelband" auch immer mehr. Die Kara und die Inca, zwei Hunde, die uns auch so arg Kopfzerbrechen bereiten. Sie werden in einer Pension, auch nicht bei Mara und Paul, keine großartigen Fortschritte machen können, dafür sind sie einfach zu "speziell". Wirklich angsthundeerfahrene Menschen müssen da ran, Menschen mit Zeit und Muße, die wissen, worauf sie sich bei Kara und Inca einlassen. Kara und Inca sind gestern zu Mara und Paul umgezogen. Sie teilen sich jetzt einen Freilauf mit Alvin und den beiden Lillys, die sie ganz toll in ihrer Mitte aufgenommen h

About Kara

What life with Kara looks like

Kara is a medium-sized mixed breed dog waiting at Fellchen in Not e.V. in Germany.

A 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 Germany

German rescues typically require an in-person home visit (Vorkontrolle) or detailed video home check before approving adoption. Many dogs and cats leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport, but this varies by shelter, so confirm what is included with the shelter.

Frequently asked

Adopting Kara, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Kara?
Use the "View on shelter website" button on this page, which takes you to the shelter's own page. Fellchen in Not e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Kara on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Kara if I live in another country?
Often, but it depends on the shelter and the countries involved. Some rescues place animals abroad and some only adopt out locally, so ask Fellchen in Not e.V. whether they will for Kara, what they require (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 Kara already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Fellchen in Not e.V. lists Kara as spayed. The adoption fee, and what it covers, is set by Fellchen in Not e.V., so confirm with them what is included (vaccinations, microchip, sterilization, paperwork) and ask about specific vaccines, recent bloodwork or chronic conditions.
What happens if Kara isn't the right fit?
Many rescues take an animal back if an adoption doesn't work, but policies differ, so ask Fellchen in Not e.V. about its return policy before you adopt. If things aren't working, talk it through with them early rather than rehoming privately; they know Kara 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.
