Kiwi

Mixed Breed · Female

Kiwi was found in the industrial area of Plasencia. He was undernourished, full of worms, and full of ticks. However, his blood tests showed no signs of illness. He was simply super thin. Kiwi has since recovered well and is super friendly, loving people totally. He enjoys the attention of the caretakers and can't get enough of cuddles and affection. Kiwi goes for walks very willingly and reads the dog newspaper intensively. He shows no hunting ambitions. Kiwi needs time and patience to learn all the new things in his new life. Kiwi is a smart guy and with the right people by his side, he will make it in no time. Applications can be made at www.pfotenhilfe-sachsen.

Kiwi wurde im Industriegebiet von Plasencia gefunden. Er war unterernährt, voller Würmer und voller Zecken. Seine Bluttests zeigten jedoch keine Anzeichen einer Krankheit. Er war einfach nur superdünn. Kiwi hat sich inzwischen gut erholt und ist superfreundlich, liebt die Menschen total. Er genießt die Aufmerksamkeit der Pfleger und kann nicht genug bekommen von Streicheleinheiten und Zuwendungen. Kiwi geht sehr gern spazieren und liest intensiv die Hundezeitung. Jagdambitionen zeigt er nicht. Kiwi braucht Zeit und Geduld, um all das Neue in seinem neuen Leben zu lernen. Kiwi ist ein schlaues Kerlchen und mit den richtigen Menschen an seiner Seite wird er es in Handumdrehen schaffen. Bewerbung unter www.pfotenhilfe-sachsen.de

About Kiwi

What life with Kiwi looks like

Kiwi is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Pfotenhilfe Sachsen e.V. in Germany.

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 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.

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. Pfotenhilfe Sachsen e.V. 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 — Pfotenhilfe Sachsen e.V. 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 Pfotenhilfe Sachsen e.V. 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 (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.
