Kiwi

Male · Puppy · 3 months

Unlike the rest of my crew, I'm a bit more opinionated and vocal. If something catches me off guard, I'm likely to bark first and think about it later! I like to make my feelings known and I'm not shy about sharing my opinions. I'm also a little cautious when it comes to new people, unfamiliar things, or changes to my routine. I prefer having a chance to observe and process things before deciding they're safe. Once I realize there's nothing to worry about, my confidence starts to grow. I'm not the fastest learner in the world, but that's okay—after all, repetition is the key to learning! With patience, consistency, and a little encouragement, I get there in the end. I may need a few extra reminders, but I'm always trying my best. Beneath my cautious and chatty exterior is a puppy who is learning how to navigate the world one step at a time. With understanding, guidance, and a sense of humor, I'll continue to grow into a wonderful companion.

About Kiwi

What life with Kiwi looks like

Kiwi is a small puppy/kitten dog waiting at 2nd Chance Dogs.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇨🇾Adopting from Cyprus

Cypriot rescues focus heavily on cross-border placements (the island has more strays than local adopters). Animals are fully vetted before flying. The adopter pays the transport, while the shelter coordinates vaccinations, chipping, and the passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Kiwi, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Kiwi?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. 2nd Chance Dogs handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Kiwi on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Kiwi if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — 2nd Chance Dogs 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 Kiwi 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 Kiwi 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 2nd Chance Dogs early rather than rehoming privately; they know Kiwi 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 (EN). 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.
