Kira

Mixed Breed · Unknown

Kira - finally, her life can begin. Like Jordi, Kira was also traded by her hunter for a sack of food. Together with two other female dogs, she was finally able to leave this place - a place where she apparently never experienced what it means to be loved and cared for. The secretly taken photos of her accommodation tell it all. For her owner, these dogs were not feeling beings, but merely hunting tools. Behind Kira's beautiful eyes, however, is a heart that can feel. A heart that knows fear, but hopefully will soon also know a lot of joy and trust. Kira has hardly experienced anything of a normal dog life so far. No own home, no walks, no cozy evenings on the couch, no little adventures with her humans.

DE·Show original

Kira – endlich darf ihr Leben beginnen. So wie Jordi wurde auch Kira von ihrem Jäger gegen einen Sack Futter eingetauscht. Gemeinsam mit zwei weiteren Hündinnen durfte sie diesen Ort endlich hinter sich lassen – einen Ort, an dem sie offenbar nie erfahren durfte, was es bedeutet, geliebt und umsorgt zu werden. Die heimlich aufgenommenen Fotos ihrer Unterbringung erzählen eigentlich alles. Für ihren Besitzer waren diese Hunde keine fühlenden Lebewesen, sondern lediglich Jagdwerkzeuge. Dabei steckt hinter Kiras wunderschönen Augen ein Herz, das fühlen kann. Ein Herz, das Angst kennt, aber hoffentlich bald auch ganz viel Freude und Vertrauen kennenlernen darf. Kira hat bisher kaum etwas von einem normalen Hundeleben erleben dürfen. Kein eigenes Zuhause, keine Spaziergänge, keine gemütlichen Abende auf dem Sofa, keine kleinen Abenteuer mit ihren Menschen.

About Kira

What life with Kira looks like

Kira is a extra-large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein Europa in München.

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. Tierschutzverein Europa 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 — Tierschutzverein Europa 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 Tierschutzverein Europa 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.
