Boby

Mixed Breed · Male

Bobi is a dog trapped in his own insecurities and fears, but with a huge heart to be discovered. When he goes for walks, he's a completely happy dog: he loves exploring new paths, sniffing every square inch, running and enjoying the freedom of the countryside. With dogs, at first **he has no problem**. He is extremely loyal to his own; when he meets his godmother, he gives her an amazing party of jumps and tricks! However, due to his fears, **he has problems with some people if there isn't a good introduction**, and can even bite out of pure insecurity if he feels cornered. Bobi needs experienced adopters, patient and willing to understand his times. Once he passes the barrier of fear and gains confidence, he is a wonderful dog.

Bobi es un perro atrapado en sus propias inseguridades y miedos, pero con un corazón enorme por descubrir. Cuando sale de paseo, es un perro totalmente feliz: le encanta recorrer caminos nuevos, olisquear cada centímetro cuadrado, correr y disfrutar de la libertad del campo. Con los perros, en principio, **no tiene ningún problema**. Es un perro sumamente leal con los suyos; cuando se encuentra con su madrina, ¡le hace una súper fiesta de saltos y mañas! Sin embargo, debido a sus miedos, **tiene problemas con algunas personas si no se hace una buena presentación**, llegando a poder morder por pura inseguridad si se siente acorralado. Bobi necesita adoptantes experimentados, con paciencia y dispuestos a entender sus tiempos. Una vez que pasa la barrera del miedo y coge confianza, es un perro maravilloso.

About Boby

What life with Boby looks like

Boby is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Refugio Canino Torres 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 (typically €250–€400 for a dog, €100–€180 for a cat). Many maintain partnerships with rescue transport providers across the EU.

Frequently asked

Adopting Boby, answered.

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