Adopt KIRA

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 6 years

KIRA is a very dynamic dog who loves long walks and playtime. She is greedy and attentive, which makes her an excellent learner. KIRA does not tolerate other animals of the same species, so she will be the only pet in the house.

Read original (fr)

Kira est une chienne très dynamique, elle aime les longues promenades et les moments de jeu. Elle est gourmande et à l'écoute, c'est un plus pour l'apprentissage. Kira ne tolère pas ses congénères, elle sera donc le seul animal présent dans la maison.

About KIRA

What life with KIRA looks like

KIRA is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at SPA Forbach in Forbach.

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 France

French refuges follow the SPA framework: adopters sign a cession contract that includes sterilization, vaccinations, microchip identification, and rabies passport. Fees are typically €150–€300. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

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. SPA Forbach 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 — SPA Forbach 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 SPA Forbach 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 (FR). 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.
