Karika

Staffordshire Bull Terrier · Female · Adult · 8 years

A staff female dog arrived with a thin body and completely deformed legs. She had already come to our attention before, but she was taken away. She also had puppies, or had them, but we don't know what happened to them. She was given the name Karika here. She was born around 2018. Her leg was already bent when she was a puppy, and it was already mentioned that she would come to us, but they didn't give us a chance to possibly correct her leg deformity. Now she is under our care and we will take her for an orthopedic examination soon, where it will be determined if our Karika still has a chance to correct her bent leg. Very kind little girl, who happily wags her tail and lives her life despite her bent leg. We hope this physical disability won't hinder her adoption, but we must admit that it's not easy to live here with such a leg, so for her it would be even more important to have a permanent family.

Nálunk a Karika nevet kapta. Valamikor 2018 körüli születésű. Már kölyöknek görbült volt a lába és akkor is szó volt róla, hogy jön hozzánk, de eltüntetésével esélyt sem adtak arra, hogy talán lába görbülését esetleg korrigálni lehetett volna.Most már gondozásunkan van és hamarosan ortopédia vizsgálatra visszük, ahol kiderül Karikánknak van-e még esélye, hogy görbe lábán javítani lehet-e.Nagyon kedves kislány, aki a görbe lába ellenére boldogan csóvál és éli az életét. Reméljük ez a testi hiba nem fogja örökbefogadását hátráltatni, de be kell látnunk ilyen lábbal a menhelyen nem egyszerű élni, így számára még fontosabb lenne egy végleges család.Érdeklődni róla és személyes találkozóra időpont foglalás a 06 30 221 12 99 telefonszámunkon, hétfőtől szombatig 10 és 15 óra között, vagy az További képek ITT!

About Karika

What life with Karika looks like

Karika is a small adult staffordshire bull terrier dog waiting at Noé Állatotthon in Budapest.

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.

Note from the shelter: Deformed legs requiring orthopedic evaluation and possible corrective surgery

🇭🇺Adopting from Hungary

Hungarian shelters operate at high capacity given the country's stray population. Animals leave sterilized, chipped, and with a passport. Many shelters coordinate transport to Germany, Austria, and the Nordics.

Frequently asked

Adopting Karika, answered.

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