Kira

Mixed Breed · Female · 2 years

"Learny but unsure whirlwind" Date of Birth: Jan. 2024 Size: under knee-high Compatible with dogs: yes Compatible with children in the same household: no Home sought: outskirts or countryside The 2024-born, learny mixed-breed female dog Kira needs a get-to-know phase with people to build trust. Kira is well-compatible with other dogs. She knows apartment life, is house-trained, and could also stay alone for some time in her last home. Kira rides politely in the car and knows basic commands. When Kira is stressed, she snaps – so Kira is not rehomed to households with children. For the whirlwind, we are looking for a childless home in the outskirts or countryside.

„Lernfreudiger, aber unsicherer Wirbelwind“ Geburtsdatum: Jan. 2024 Größe: unter kniehoch Mit Hunden verträglich: ja Kinder im selben Haushalt: nein Zuhause gesucht: Stadtrand oder Land Die 2024 geborene, lernfreudige Mischlingshündin Kira benötigt bei Menschen eine Kennenlernphase, um Vertrauen aufzubauen. Mit anderen Hunden ist Kira gut verträglich. Sie kennt das Leben in einer Wohnung, ist stubenrein, konnte in ihrem letzten Zuhause auch einige Zeit alleine bleiben. Kira fährt brav im Auto mit und kennt die Grundkommandos. Wenn Kira gestresst ist, neidt sie zum Schnappen – zu Kindern wird sie daher nicht vermittelt. Für den Wirbelwind suchen wir ein kinderloses Zuhause am Stadtrand oder Land.

About Kira

What life with Kira looks like

Kira is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutz Austria in Vienna.

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 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.

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. Tierschutz Austria 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 — Tierschutz Austria 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
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 Tierschutz Austria 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.
