How do I contact the shelter about Kita?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Northeim handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Kita on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Kita if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Northeim 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 Kita 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 Kita 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 Northeim early rather than rehoming privately; they know Kita 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.

Kita

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 9 years

With a heavy heart, we are searching for a new home for the wonderful Akita-Inu female dog (NAME0), where she can finally receive the love, security, and attention she deserves. She is 4 years old, white-red, healthy, well-groomed, and an incredibly loyal soul. Unfortunately, she was left behind by her previous owner. Since then, she has been waiting for someone to show her that she can once again be a full-fledged family member. Our female dog is very people-oriented, cuddly, and loves any form of attention. She enjoys spending time with her humans, seeks closeness, and simply wants to belong. She is kind and patient with children and delights in every pat. However, there is one small quirk: when she was still a puppy, she was bitten by a small dog. Since then, she has been insecure around other dogs and not always friendly. Therefore, we would like her to have a home without other dogs or with people who have experience dealing with Akitas. As this was missed by her former owners, NAME0 is currently neither microchipped nor vaccinated and does not have a vaccination card. Additionally, she is not registered at the moment. If you would like to give her a second chance and provide her with a loving home, please get in touch. We wish for her a family that keeps her forever and shows her how wonderful dog life can be.

Mit schwerem Herzen suchen wir für die wunderschöne Akita-Inu-Hündin ( Kita) ein neues Zuhause, in dem sie endlich die Liebe, Geborgenheit und Aufmerksamkeit bekommt, die sie verdient. Sie ist 4 Jahre alt, weiß-rötlich, gesund, gepflegt und eine unglaublich treue Seele. Leider wurde sie von ihrem bisherigen Besitzer zurückgelassen. Seitdem wartet sie darauf, dass jemand ihr zeigt, dass sie wieder ein vollwertiges Familienmitglied sein darf. Unsere Hündin ist sehr menschenbezogen, verschmust und liebt jede Form von Aufmerksamkeit. Sie genießt gemeinsame Zeit mit ihren Menschen, sucht Nähe und möchte einfach dazugehören. Kindern gegenüber ist sie lieb und geduldig und freut sich über jede Streicheleinheit. Eine kleine Besonderheit gibt es jedoch: Als sie noch ein Welpe war, wurde sie von einem kleinen Hund gebissen. Seitdem ist sie anderen Hunden gegenüber unsicher und nicht immer freundlich. Deshalb wünschen wir uns für sie ein Zuhause ohne andere Hunde oder bei Menschen mit Erfahrung im Umgang mit Akitas. Da dies durch ihre ehemaligen Halter versäumt wurde, ist Kita aktuell weder gechippt noch gültig geimpft und besitzt keinen Impfpass. Außerdem ist sie derzeit nicht angemeldet. Wenn du ihr eine zweite Chance geben möchtest und ihr ein liebevolles Zuhause bieten kannst, melde dich bitte. Wir wünschen uns für sie eine Familie, die sie für immer behält und ihr zeigt, wie schön ein Hundeleben sein kann. Mail: WhatsApp:

About Kita

What life with Kita looks like

Kita is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Northeim.

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 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.
