Kira

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 5 years

Shy Kira is waiting for her family!🏡🐕💜 Kira and her siblings did not have an easy start in life. The litter was found on a garbage dump. Luckily, they were rescued from that place and have been living at Lumi's animal shelter in Borsa, Romania ever since. Unfortunately, the siblings cannot tell us what they experienced, but it has left its mark. Kira is very shy and only lets Lumi pet her. She also cuddles with Lumi and seeks her closeness. With strangers, she now takes a treat from their hand. Kira, however, is afraid of being touched; she freezes and runs away. She shows herself friendly and social to other dogs. With patience, love, and training, you will surely win Kira's heart. We are looking for people with dog experience for Kira. Do you want to be Kira's strong partner? 🐕🐾❤️ This is our assessment of Kira's current behavior; we cannot predict how she will show herself in Germany. Like us humans, every dog can change and develop. YouTube Video Link to playlist:

Schüchterne Kira wartet auf ihre Familie!🏡🐕💜 Kira und ihre Geschwister hatten keinen leichten Start ins Leben. Die Rasselbande wurde auf einer Müllkippe gefunden. Zum Glück konnten sie von diesem Ort gerettet werden und leben seitdem bei Lumi im Tierheim in Borsa, Rumänien.. Was die Geschwister erlebt haben, können sie uns leider nicht erzählen aber es hat Spuren hinterlassen. Kira ist sehr ängstlich und lässt sich nur von Lumi streicheln. Mit Lumi kuschelt sie auch und sucht ihre Nähe. Bei fremden Menschen nimmt sie mittlerweile auch schon ein Leckerchen aus der Hand. Kira lässt sich aber nicht anfassen, da hat sie leider noch Angst und erstarrt und läuft weg. Den anderen Hunden gegenüber zeigt sie sich freundlich und sozial. Mit viel Geduld, Liebe und Training wird man sicher das ❤️ von Kira gewinnen können. Für Kira suchen wir Menschen mit Hundeerfahrung. Möchtest du Kira‘s starker Partner sein? 🐕🐾❤️ Dies ist unsere Einschätzung des aktuellen Verhaltens von Kira, wie sie sich in Deutschland zeigen wird, können wir nicht voraussagen. Jeder Hund kann sich genau wie wir Menschen verändern und entwickeln. YouTube Video Link zur Playlist:

About Kira

What life with Kira looks like

Kira is an adult mixed breed dog waiting at Mischlingsliebe e.V. 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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

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. Mischlingsliebe 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 — Mischlingsliebe 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
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 Mischlingsliebe 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.
