Adopt BLUEBELL

Mixed Breed · Female

Bluebell arrived with 3 other dogs, all of whom had to be captured using a trap as they were too nervous to approach people. With time and patience, they slowly gained confidence and became more comfortable around us. None of them had ever worn a collar or lead before, so a lot of work went into helping them adjust. Bluebell would panic at anything placed on or around her neck, but slowly she became comfortable with a harness. She can still be a little unsure but once she feels secure, off she goes and enjoys her walk. Bluebell loves running around with kennel mate Bugsy and we truly hope to find the right homes for this beauty, where she will need patience, understanding, and of course lots of love. She is fully vaccinated with a passport, microchipped, sterilized, blood tested, treated for fleas and ticks, wormed and heartworm prevented.

About BLUEBELL

What life with BLUEBELL looks like

BLUEBELL is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at SAT Animal Rescue Torrevieja.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 BLUEBELL, answered.

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