Adopt Karika

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 8 years

Name: Karika born: approx. 01.01.2018 Gender: female dog Breed: mixed breed rescued: found Size: 30-35 cm Weight: 15-20 kg Social behavior: Behavior towards men: (x) very good ( ) good ( ) okay ( ) not interested ( ) shy Behavior towards women: (x) very good ( ) good ( ) okay ( ) not interested ( ) shy Behavior towards children: not known ( ) very good ( ) good ( ) okay ( ) not interested ( ) shy Compatible with male dogs: very dominant ( ) very good (x) good ( ) okay ( ) not interested (x) no Compatible with female dogs: very dominant ( ) very good ( ) good ( ) okay ( ) not interested (x) no Compatible with cats: not known ( ) very good ( ) good ( ) okay ( ) not interested ( ) no Has already lived in a house: not known ( ) yes ( ) no Additional information: In September 2023, this now completely emaciated mixed-breed female dog with crooked legs came into the care of the NOAH animal shelter in Hungary. We had already noticed her before, but now we could finally help her. She must have already had puppies, but we unfortunately do not know what happened to them. We have named her Karika. She was born around 2018 and already as a puppy had crooked front legs, and there was talk of us taking her in and trying to help her get her legs a bit straighter, but then she disappeared unfortunately. Now she is safe with us and we will have her examined by an orthopedist to see if anything can still be done. Karika is in fact a very affectionate, people-oriented female dog who is delighted with any attention. Despite her crooked front legs, or maybe because of them, Karika can climb fences very well. Karika is very dominant towards other dogs, so she needs a single home. Karika is microchipped, vaccinated and spayed and is eagerly waiting for her humans. Gets along with other dogs.

Wir waren schon früher auf sei aufmerksam geworden, aber nun konnten wir ihr endlich helfen. Sie muss auch schon Junge gehabt haben, aber wir wissen leider nicht, was mit ihnen geschehen ist. Wir haben sie Karika genannt. Sie ist ca. 2018 geboren und hatte schon als Welpe so krumme Vorderbeine und es war die Rede davon, dass wir sie übernehmen und versuchen, ihr zu helfen, ihre Beine etwas gerader zu bekommen, aber dann verschwand sie leider. Jetzt ist sie bei uns in Sicherheit und wir werden sie von einem Orthopäden untersuchen lassen, ob da noch etwas zu machen ist. Karika ist im Übrigen eine sehr liebe, menschenbezogene Hündin, die sich über jede Aufmerksamkeit freut. Trotz ihrer krummen Vorderläufe, oder vielleicht mit deren Hilfe kann Karika sehr gut über Zäune klettern. Anderen Hunden gegenüber ist Karika sehr dominant, daher kommt für sie nur ein Einzelplatz in Frage. Karika ist gechipt, geimpft und kastriert und wartet sehnsüchtig auf ihre Menschen.

About Karika

What life with Karika looks like

Karika is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Noah Tierheim Ungarn in Germany.

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 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 Karika, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Karika?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Noah Tierheim Ungarn 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 — Noah Tierheim Ungarn 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 Noah Tierheim Ungarn 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 (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.
