Lora

Female, Mixed breed, small, born approx. 05.02.2026

Characteristics:

  • Observant, thoughtful and intelligent — she watches before she leaps
  • Sweet and gentle, with a very special sensitivity
  • Still opening up to the world, at her own pace
  • Absolutely beautiful, inside and out

History and personality:

Not long ago, four tiny lives arrived at the sanctuary after being found inside a sealed cardboard box, abandoned in a public space. Alone. Without their mother. Without anyone watching over them. But these little ones have an incredible strength: they managed to chew through the box themselves, making a hole to get out, to be seen, to ask for help in their own way. And that is how they were found in time.

They are four puppies of approximately 11 weeks, small mixed breeds (terrier or miniature pinscher type): one boy and three girls. They arrived covered in fleas and with irritated skin, clear signs of neglect. But that is all in the past now. After arriving at the shelter and resting for a full day, their true personalities began to shine. They are brave, sweet and full of life, taking their first steps toward a better future.

Lora is the smaller of the two brown and black sisters. She is a shyer puppy, one of those who watches before jumping in. She analyses, thinks and then decides, already showing a very special intelligence. She is sweet, gentle and absolutely beautiful. She has not yet fully opened up to the people caring for her, but we know that when she does, they will discover one of the most beautiful souls imaginable. Lora is like a flower just beginning to bloom, in her own time.

What she needs:

We are looking for a responsible, committed and loving family for her. People who understand that a puppy is a whole lifetime of companionship, guidance and care, and who will show her the world with patience, respect and tenderness. Lora needs someone who will respect her pace and be by her side as she blossoms. Because she didn’t just survive… she fought to be seen. And now she deserves to be chosen, forever.

Veterinary information:

Will shortly be fully vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped and with an EU passport.
