Kira

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 3 years

mixed breed Kira – large-hearted hound dog seeking her home for life The wonderful Kira has lived in a Spanish animal shelter since December 2025. At first, the unfamiliar environment, the noise, and the many new impressions unsettled her greatly. But Kira has shown how adaptable she is and has settled into shelter life well over time. She shares her kennel problem-free with the male dog Porto and is social and compatible when interacting with other dogs. Her excellent development became particularly clear when she temporarily moved to a foster home in February due to floods. There, she handled life in the house with panache, lived peacefully with other dogs, and enjoyed the closeness of her people. In May, Kira even participated in a large event. Despite many people, chaos, and unfamiliar noises, she showed her best side. She greeted every visitor, whether large or small, with friendliness and openness and proved that she can remain calm and sovereign in exciting situations. Kira is a large female dog with a friendly nature and a loving character. She is looking for people who will give her the time to continue developing and show her the beautiful sides of life. For her, we wish for a home in the countryside where she has enough space and can leave the hustle and bustle of city life behind. Anyone who wants to give a loyal companion with a big heart a loving home will find in Kira a wonderful lifelong friend.

Mischling Kira – große Herzenshündin sucht ihr Zuhause fürs Leben Die wunderschöne Kira lebt seit Dezember 2025 in einem spanischen Tierheim. Die erste Zeit fiel ihr nicht leicht: Die ungewohnte Umgebung, der Lärm und die vielen neuen Eindrücke verunsicherten sie zunächst sehr. Doch Kira hat gezeigt, wie anpassungsfähig sie ist, und konnte sich nach und nach gut im Tierheimalltag einleben. Ihren Zwinger teilt sie sich problemlos mit dem Rüden Porto und zeigt sich im Umgang mit anderen Hunden sozial und verträglich. Besonders deutlich wurde ihre tolle Entwicklung, als sie im Februar aufgrund von Überschwemmungen kurzzeitig auf eine Pflegestelle umziehen durfte. Dort meisterte sie das Leben im Haus mit Bravour, lebte entspannt mit anderen Hunden zusammen und genoss die Nähe zu ihren Menschen. Im Mai durfte Kira sogar an einer großen Veranstaltung teilnehmen. Trotz vieler Menschen, Trubel und ungewohnter Geräusche zeigte sie sich von ihrer besten Seite. Freundlich und offen begrüßte sie jeden Besucher – ob groß oder klein – und bewies, dass sie auch in aufregenden Situationen gelassen und souverän bleiben kann. Kira ist eine große Hündin mit einem freundlichen Wesen und einem liebevollen Charakter. Sie sucht Menschen, die ihr die Zeit geben, weiter anzukommen und ihr die schönen Seiten des Lebens zeigen. Für sie wünschen wir uns ein Zuhause im ländlichen Bereich, wo sie ausreichend Platz hat und die Hektik des Stadtlebens hinter sich lassen kann. Wer einer treuen Begleiterin mit großem Herzen ein liebevolles Zuhause schenken möchte, wird in Kira eine wunderbare Freundin fürs Leben finden. Hier geht’s zu Kiras Video Hier geht’s zu Video 2

About Kira

What life with Kira looks like

Kira is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at SALVA Hundehilfe e.V. in Germany.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 Kira, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Kira?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. SALVA Hundehilfe 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 — SALVA Hundehilfe 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 SALVA Hundehilfe 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.
