Kiwi

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 4 years

Eigentlich sollte Kiwis Geschichte ganz anders verlaufen. Ursprünglich hatte Monica, die Tierschützerin, nur vorgesehen, sie kastrieren und anschließend wieder auf die Straße zu lassen. Doch Kiwi zeigte sich so menschenbezogen, offen und freundlich, dass schnell feststand, die Hündin nicht mehr den Gefahren der Straße auszusetzen. Wer Kiwi kennenlernen darf, versteht diese Entscheidung! Die junge Hündin geht freundlich auf Menschen zu, freut sich sehr über Aufmerksamkeit und genießt jede Streicheleinheit. Auch andere Hunde findet sie gut. Über ihr Leben, bevor Monica sie fand, wissen wir leider nichts. An einem Vorderbein hat sie eine kleine, alte Verletzung, weshalb sie manchmal etwas humpelt. Das Bein wurde geröntgt. Der Tierarzt, dem sie vorgestellt wurde, betont, dass die Wunde verheilt sei und es aktuell keinen Hinweis auf Schmerzen gäbe. Dennoch kann nicht ausgeschlossen werden, dass sich im Laufe der Zeit Begleiterscheinungen einer Arthrose einstellen.

About Kiwi

What life with Kiwi looks like

Kiwi is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Waisenhunde e.V. in Wöllstadt.

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. Waisenhunde 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 — Waisenhunde 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 Waisenhunde 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.
