Adopt BARKU

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

He was taken from a pickup center BARKU. BARKU has arrived with us fearful of people, currently avoiding us or sitting very still if you approach him without daring to trust. He is very young, barely a year old, and the company of his pen mates is helping him a lot, giving him security. A family where he would have a furry brother would be great for him. He tested very mildly positive for leishmaniasis and is already receiving his treatment. He is dewormed, vaccinated, microchipped, tested for leishmaniasis and 4DX (Heartworm disease, Ehrlichiosis -Lyme disease and Anaplasmosis), neutered, with a passport, and adoption contract.

About BARKU

What life with BARKU looks like

BARKU is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at ACUNR - Animales Con Un Nuevo Rumbo in Spain.

An young 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 BARKU, answered.

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