History : When Hira was about 7 months old, she was found in an old trash can with her brother Fredy. They were alone and without their mother. Fortunately, the nearby animal shelter was called immediately and the two pups were taken care of. Hira and Freddy were immediately taken to the vet. They tested positive for leishmaniasis. However, with such a low titer that we assume they got the antibodies from their mother. They receive a Leishguard syrup treatment four times a year. This allowed the titer to be lowered to such an extent that the test is now negative. The blood test should be repeated annually to ensure that it remains the case and that the titer does not rise again. We will be happy to advise you in detail on this matter.

Description : Hira always happily greets people, loves to be paid attention to, and likes to be hugged. She is eager to learn and wants to please : the best prerequisite to learn a lot and become a very good human-dog team. Now this beauty is looking for someone who will be there for her and whom she can count on, forever. Hira is a great companion for life. Without a doubt, you would also like to walk, jog and train together with a dog training professional. Hira has a lot of energy, so a family with small children is not suitable. Cats should also not be in the home. If you are enthusiastic about the beautiful Hira and are looking for a companion for an active life, please contact us.

All animals available for adoption have a microchip and passport. They have been tested for common diseases (Leishmania for dogs, FeLV and FIP for cats). Adult animals are fully vaccinated and castrated.

* Until complete adaptation, adult supervision with small children is essential.

** This means we have tested the dog with cats in the shelter and has shown no reactive behaviour, but this does not guarantee 100% compatibility with cats. Therefore, we always advise that cats and dogs are together only under surveillance.
