Adopt Kira

Husky · Female · Young · 1 year

Kira is a beautiful mixed breed (medium size) of just 1 year old. She came to us due to a seizure. Here we got to know Kira as a kind, affectionate and stubborn lady. She lived with another dog and it went well. Kira is a very active lady and needs sufficient exercise daily. She is absolutely not a couch potato! Now Kira is looking for her golden bed. She can be placed with children from 12 years old. She can be tested with a dog of her own. Kira is looking for an active owner who can give her the necessary exercise daily. She is looking for owners who will include her in all activities daily and take her everywhere. Kira really likes to be 100% part of the family. Who can give her a warm home?

Kira is een prachtige kruising (kniehoogte) van net 1 jaar oud. Ze kwam bij ons terecht vanwege een inbeslagname. Hier mochten we Kira leren kennen als een lieve, aanhankelijke en eigenwijze dame. Ze leefde samen met een andere hond en dit ging goed. Kira is een enorm actieve dame en heeft dagelijks voldoende beweging nodig. Ze is absoluut geen bankhanger! Nu mag Kira op zoek naar haar gouden mandje. Ze kan geplaatst worden bij kinderen vanaf 12 jaar oud. Ze kan getest worden met een eigen hond. Kira gaat op zoek naar een actief baasje die haar dagelijks de nodige beweging kunnen geven. Ze gaat op zoek naar baasjes waarij ze dagelijks betrokken wordt in alle activiteiten en ze overal mee naar toe mag gaan. Kira maakt graag 100% deel uit van het gezin. Wie kan haar een warme thuis geven? Kennismakingen verlopen steeds op afspraak en na het invullen van onze vragenlijst via mail. Het heeft dus geen zin om zonder afspraak langs te komen alsook niet om telefonisch contact op te nemen.

About Kira

What life with Kira looks like

Kira is a young adult husky dog waiting at Dierenasiel Sint-Hubertus in Aalst.

An young 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 Belgium

Belgian shelters operate under regional law (Flanders, Wallonia, Brussels each have their own rules). All adoptions include the Eurochip, vaccinations, and a stewardship contract. Several Flemish shelters partner with Dutch and German rescue networks.

Frequently asked

Adopting Kira, answered.

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