Kora

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy · 7 months

This is Kora. Seven months old, 19 kg. She will be a large size in the future. She is the puppy that was brought to the yard in Corigliano and that we have taken in. At first, she was a bit shy (she has been with us since the end of July), but then she learned to trust us … she’s not a dog who celebrates with you if she doesn’t know you yet, but she will be friendly soon … she loves the company of other dogs and has no problem with children, quite the opposite … we would say that she adores them and respects them very much. Of course, a big black dog in Italy has no chance, but the thought that she would have grown up in that miserable yard and been irredeemable is an incomplete thought for us. She is fully immunized with two vaccinations and vaccinated against rabies. Who has a free spot for the sweetie?

Das ist Kora. 7 Monate alt, 19 kg. Zukünftig grosse Grösse. Sie ist der Welpe, den sie in den Zwinger in Corigliano gebracht haben und den wir übernommen haben. Am Anfang war sie etwas schüchtern (sie ist seit Ende Juli bei uns), aber dann hat sie gelernt, uns zu vertrauen … sie ist kein Hund, der mit dir feiert, wenn sie dich noch nicht kennt, aber sie wird schnell freundlich … sie liebt die Gesellschaft anderer Hunde und sie hat kein Problem mit Kindern, im Gegenteil … wir würden sagen, dass sie sie sehr mag und sie sehr respektiert. Natürlich hat ein großer schwarzer Hund in Italien keine Chance, aber der Gedanke, dass sie in diesem lausigen Zwinger aufgewachsen wäre und unrettbar gewesen wäre, ist für uns ein unvollstellbarer Gedanke. Sie ist mit zwei Impfungen grundimmunisiert und gegen Tollwut geimpft. Wer hat einen freien Platz für die Süsse?

About Kora

What life with Kora looks like

Kora is a large puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at SOS Strassenhunde in Sos Strassenhunde.

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 Switzerland

Swiss shelters require a home visit (Platzkontrolle) and proof of suitable accommodation. Cantons each have their own additional dog-keeping requirements (e.g. SKN training in some areas). Animals leave sterilized and chipped.

Frequently asked

Adopting Kora, answered.

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