Algaé

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 5 years

Algaé was found wandering the streets of Parque de la Reina with her sister. Despite this uncertain start, she has grown into a lovely young girl with a very affectionate nature. She is wonderful with people and loves attention. Although her puppy years are behind her, she can still have the occasional boisterous moment , especially when she’s excited about going out for a walk, but she soon settles once she’s had a chance to burn off that initial excitement. Kennel staff describe her as having a fantastic temperament. She is social with both people and other dogs and thoroughly adores her walks. We believe Algaé would adapt well to a home environment. As far as we know, she hasn’t lived in a home before, so she would need time and guidance to learn the rules, but with her loving nature and willingness to please, she should settle in beautifully.

About Algaé

What life with Algaé looks like

Algaé is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Live PAWS Tenerife in Spain.

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 Spain

Spanish protectoras generally include sterilization, all vaccinations, microchip ID, and EU pet passport in the adoption fee (typically €250–€400 for a dog, €100–€180 for a cat). Many maintain partnerships with rescue transport providers across the EU.

Frequently asked

Adopting Algaé, answered.

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