Kira

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 14 years

Kira is already an older dog; she was born in July 2012 and is spayed. As befits her age, Kira has a few minor health issues, but she’s still happy to go for not-too-demanding walks. At first, Kira was wary of strangers. Kira very much hopes to spend her remaining days in a loving home.

DE·Show original

Kira ist schon eine alte Hündin; sie ist im Juli 2012 geboren und ist kastriert. Dem Alter entsprechend hat Kira einige Wehwehchen, aber für nicht zu ambitionierte Spaziergänge ist sie noch gerne zu haben. Anfangs ist Kira Fremden gegenüber misstrauisch. Kira wünscht sich sehr noch ihre letzte Zeit in einem liebevollen Zuhause zu verbringen.

About Kira

What life with Kira looks like

Kira is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Brunn am Gebirge in Brunn am Gebirge.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇦🇹Adopting from Austria

Austrian shelters follow the federal Tierschutzgesetz framework: adopters sign a Schutzvertrag (protection contract) committing to the animal's welfare. Spay/neuter, microchip, and vaccinations are included; fees typically range €150–€350.

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. Tierheim Brunn am Gebirge 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 — Tierheim Brunn am Gebirge 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 Tierheim Brunn am Gebirge 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.
