How do I contact the shelter about Kira?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierischgeholfen e.V. 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 — Tierischgeholfen 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 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 Tierischgeholfen e.V. 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 (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.

Kira

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy

Description Our Spanish animal welfare workers report: This small female dog Kira arrived in a pitiful condition at our shelter. Her ears were full of wounds and ravaged by leishmaniasis. She has now recovered after being treated with Glucantime and continues to take Allopurinol 100 mg every 12 hours (as of October 2022). Kira is, like many Bodegueros, very people-friendly and cuddly. She also gets along well with other dogs. She is a very pleasant, more quiet female dog. Kira can go on a leash well, travels without problems in the car, and is house-trained. We know all of this because she was in the home of a shelter volunteer during her leishmaniasis treatment. Who will give this lovely female dog a chance despite her illness? Kira is an attached and sociable dog who gets along with all dogs and people. She has been waiting so long! Update 18.02.2026 Photos from the November visit. Unfortunately, Kira has now gained some weight. She would need regular walks. She is otherwise doing well. The leishmaniasis is perfectly controlled and Kira has no problems.05.09.2025 New video12.02.2025 New video: Kira is very patient, even with young dogs10.07.24 New photos11.06.24: New videos (with the little Tika)08.09.23: New description, new pictures, new videos18.11.22 New videos26.11.22 New photos Please note:

Beschreibung Unsere spanischen Tierschützer berichten: Diese kleine Hündin Kira kam in einem jämmerlichen Zustand zu uns. Ihre Ohren waren voller Wunden und von den Leishmanien zerfressen. Sie hat sich jetzt erholt, nachdem sie mit Glucantime behandelt wurde und nimmt weiterhin Allopurinol 100 mg alle 12 Stunden (Stand Oktober 2022). Kira ist, wie viele Bodegueros, sehr menschenfreundlich und verschmust. Mit anderen Hunden kommt sie auch gut zurecht. Sie ist eine sehr angenehme, eher ruhigere Hündin. Kira kann gut an der Leine gehen, fährt ohne Probleme im Auto mit und ist stubenrein. All das wissen wir, weil sie während ihrer Leishmaniose-Behandlung im Haus einer Tierheimhelferin war. Wer gibt dieser tollen Hündin trotz der Krankheit eine Chance? Kira ist ein anhänglicher und geselliger Hund, der mit allen Hunden und Menschen verträglich ist. Sie wartet schon so lange! Update 17.06.2026 mittlerweile wurde Kira negativ auf Leishmaniose getestet. Sie benötigt keine Medikamente mehr. Es geht ihr gut!18.02.2026 Fotos von dem Besuch im November. Leider hat Kira mittlerweile Übergewicht. Sie bräuchte dringend regelmäßige Spaziergänge. es geht ihr ansonsten gut. Die Leishmaniose ist perfekt eingestellt und Kira hat keine Probleme.05.09.2025 neues Video12.02.2025 neues Video: Kira ist sehr geduldig, auch mit Junghunden10.07.24 neue Fotos11.06.24: neue Videos (zusammen mit der kleinen Tika)08.09.23: neue Beschreibung, neue Bilder, neue Videos18.11.22 neue Videos26.11.22 neue Fotos Bitte beachten Sie:Die Rückmeldungen der Tierheime spiegeln das aktuelle Verhalten der hier zur

About Kira

What life with Kira looks like

Kira is a puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Tierischgeholfen e.V. in Germany.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇩🇪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.
