Kira

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 2 years

ID: w-korfu-marketa-kira-f-1223 Update March 2025: Over a year has passed, and the sweet Kira is still waiting for her chance. When will she finally be discovered by her people? Update January 2024: Kira is such a loving, cuddly little one. She is initially cautious with people she doesn't know, but when she warms up, she is a dream. Gentle, cuddly, and quick to learn :-) December 2023: Kira, Trini & Nora were found on the street together with their mother. Their mother has already found a home. For their own safety, the group was taken in by animal lover Marketa and they are also looking for loving families. They are now about 5 months old and are expected to grow into medium-sized dogs weighing around 20-25kg. Kira is a friendly female dog and already very brave. All three are typically playful puppies and eagerly waiting for their new families to explore the world with them! All dogs are vaccinated, microchipped, and have an EU pet passport.

About Kira

What life with Kira looks like

Kira is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierhilfe Korfu e.V. in Ratingen.

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 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. Tierhilfe Korfu 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 — Tierhilfe Korfu 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 Tierhilfe Korfu 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.
