Adopt Lira

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 6 years

General Name: Lira Gender: female dog neutered: Yes Born around: 2020 Size around: 50 cm Residence: Public animal shelter in Sighetu since November 2024 Sponsors: no Reserved: no Character Lira has lived since mid-May at her foster home in 32429 Minden. Here, she lives peacefully with other female dogs and male dogs. Lira came from a Romanian animal shelter. Since she had to live in a small pen there with little movement, she is currently a bit overweight. But that should be manageable with sufficient walks. Lira is a ray of sunshine, a happy-go-lucky dog that shows you every day how much she enjoys life. Lira has no big demands. She loves rolling in the grass, finding a shady spot, and watching the caregiver work in the garden. She especially enjoys the walks. The sounds in the house or on the street don't impress her. She is house-trained and walks well on a leash. Staying alone with other dogs is no problem. Due to her friendly and open nature, we can imagine Lira very well with fit seniors, but she would also be a good fit for beginner dog owners. And the hustle and bustle of playing children don't bother her. Lira had to endure over 2 years in the Romanian animal shelter before she was allowed to leave. And yet, she hasn't lost her good mood. That's why we are looking for a very loving, appreciative home for this treasure. Lira is neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped and will be rehomed through the Friends Circle Emergency Aid e.V. Past We are not aware of any past. Likely she came from the street or was abandoned there. Notes The parent dogs are not known, so no information can be given about the included breeds.

About Lira

What life with Lira looks like

Lira is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Freundeskreis Notfellchen e.V. in Dorsten.

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 Lira, answered.

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