April, um amor tímido

Mixed Breed · Female

April is one of the victims of abandonment. A female dog that learned to survive on her own and still shows some signs of shyness. At UPPA we are teaching her to trust humans. She has already had her first walk on a leash and we are sure she will have many more. We will not give up on this sweet girl, and we are certain she will be a great companion for whoever adopts her. In due time, April will show when she has overcome her fears. Time and love can work miracles. The ideal family for April will be a family that has a lot of patience and knows how to understand the signals given by April. If you want to meet and learn more about this sweet dog, send an email for photos of April at . If you cannot adopt, remember that you can sponsor April starting from 1€ per month.

Frequently asked

Adopting April, um amor tímido, answered.

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