Adopt Antoine

American Staffordshire Terrier · Male · Senior · 9 years

NEW VIDEO - VIDEO NUEVO Antoine was found on the street. The family that found him had him living among other dogs for 15 days (so he is suitable with other dogs) until they finally called us to pick him up. He is a very clean and calm dog. We put him together with Candida and they immediately started playing. He walks very well on a leash and does not jump into cages. Although he entered very thin he has already gained weight and every day he is more handsome. He is a good-natured boy.

La familia que lo encontro lo tuvo 15 dias viviendo entre otros perros ( Así que es apto con otros perros) Hasta que finalmente nos llamo para ir a recogerlo. Es un perro muy limpio y tranquilo. Lo juntamos con candida y enseguida se pusieron a jugar. Pasea muy bien con la correa y no se tira a las jaulas. Aunque entro muy delgado ya ha cogido peso y cada dia esta mas guapo. Es un bonachón.

About Antoine

What life with Antoine looks like

Antoine is a senior american staffordshire terrier dog waiting at Protectora Oriolana in Spain.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇪🇸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 Antoine, answered.

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