Benedict

Male · Adult · 5 years

Benedict is a beautiful large dog that we rescued from the euthanasia station. He was there with his mom (Genevieve), who has already found a home. He is a bit reserved at first, but once he knows you, he loves to cuddle. He is a large dog, so we are looking for adopters who have the space for him and who also have the time to work on his trust. We are sure that he will grow into a wonderful dog, both inside and out, and we would love to see him happy with a family who is always there for him!

Benedict is een prachtige grote loebas die we gered hebben uit het dodingstation. Hij zat er samen met zijn mama (Genevieve), die ondertussen al een thuis vond. Hij is in het begin wat afwachtend, maar eens hij je kent, komt hij graag knuffelen. Hij is een grote hond, dus we zoeken adoptanten die hiervoor de plaats hebben en die ook de tijd hebben om aan zijn vertrouwen te werken. We zijn er zeker van dat hij zal uitgroeien tot een prachtige hond, zowel vanbuiten als vanbinnen, en we zouden hem graag gelukkig zien bij een familie die altijd voor hem klaar staat!

About Benedict

What life with Benedict looks like

Benedict is an adult dog waiting at ACE / SHIN (Animal Care Espana) 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 Benedict, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Benedict?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. ACE / SHIN (Animal Care Espana) handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Benedict on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Benedict if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — ACE / SHIN (Animal Care Espana) 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 Benedict 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 Benedict 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 ACE / SHIN (Animal Care Espana) early rather than rehoming privately; they know Benedict 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 (NL). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically.
