Buzz

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 6 years

Hi, I'm Buzz and I am looking for a brand new family to call my own! I used to be a little support dog, so I am an expert at bringing comfort. One day a very nice gentleman visited my kennel. His own dog had passed away and because he was sick he couldn't adopt a new pet full time but he still wanted to walk us! We became fast friends and soon I started going for special sleepovers at his house to keep him company between his medical treatments. Sadly he became too ill to take care of me so I had to pack my bags and head back to the kennel. I took it all in my stride and adapted right back to kennel life like a brave boy. I think I would perfectly suit an older family's lifestyle. I absolutely love my walks and I get along great with other dogs. If you are looking for a loyal, easy-going companion I am right here waiting for you. Needs someone home most of the day

About Buzz

What life with Buzz looks like

Buzz is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Louzanimales in Portugal.

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 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 Buzz, answered.

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