AMY

Female · Adult · 4 years

Hello! I'm Amy, a beautiful Kokoni dog who is eager to leave my past behind and start a new life with a family who truly loves me. My story began in Quel (La Rioja), where in July 2025 I was one of 35 dogs found living in terrible conditions inside a house. A very difficult situation that none of us should have had to experience. But now I want to look forward. I deserve to discover what it means to have a home, receive affection, enjoy walks and rest peacefully knowing I am safe. I am a sociable dog with people and get along great with other dogs, both males and females. I like company and can share my life with other dog companions. Now I just need to find that family who wants to give me the opportunity I so deserve. A family that will show me that life can also be full of beautiful things. Will you help me find my forever home? I'm eager to start my new story with you! For more information about adoptions: DISCOVER HOW TO HELP US

¡Hola! Soy Amy, una preciosa perrita de raza Kokoni que está deseando dejar atrás su pasado y comenzar una nueva vida junto a una familia que me quiera de verdad. Mi historia comenzó en Quel (La Rioja), donde en julio de 2025 fui una de los 35 perritos que fuimos encontrados viviendo en unas condiciones terribles dentro de una vivienda. Una situación muy difícil que ninguno de nosotros debería haber tenido que vivir. Pero ahora quiero mirar hacia delante. Me merezco descubrir lo que significa tener un hogar, recibir cariño, disfrutar de los paseos y descansar tranquila sabiendo que estoy a salvo. Soy una perrita sociable con las personas y me llevo estupendamente con otros perros, tanto machos como hembras. Me gusta la compañía y puedo compartir mi vida con otros compañeros perrunos. Ahora solo me falta encontrar a esa familia que quiera darme la oportunidad que tanto merezco. Una familia que me enseñe que la vida también puede estar llena de cosas bonitas. ¿Me ayudas a encontrar mi hogar definitivo? ¡Estoy deseando empezar mi nueva historia contigo!

About AMY

What life with AMY looks like

AMY is an adult dog waiting at Animales Rioja 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. Many maintain partnerships with rescue transport providers across the EU.

Frequently asked

Adopting AMY, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about AMY?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Animales Rioja handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw AMY on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt AMY if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Animales Rioja 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is AMY 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 AMY 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 Animales Rioja early rather than rehoming privately; they know AMY 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 (ES). 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.
