Adopt BOLOTA

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Puppy · 7 months

I am BOLOTA, 7 months old and I will not grow much more, so I am a medium size. I am cheerful, energetic and I like to run with people or other dogs. I was adopted as a puppy, but my family returned me, now I am looking for my second chance. I have some vaccines and a microchip.

About BOLOTA

What life with BOLOTA looks like

BOLOTA is a medium-sized puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Associação Quatro Patas e Focinhos in -387 Mealhada.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇵🇹Adopting from Portugal

Portuguese rescues coordinate extensively with European rescue networks for cross-border placements, especially for galgos and podencos. Sterilization, vaccinations, and microchip ID are standard. Adoption fees typically cover the full vet workup.

Frequently asked

Adopting BOLOTA, answered.

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