How do I contact the shelter about CANDELA?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Galgos en Familia handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw CANDELA on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt CANDELA if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Galgos en Familia 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 CANDELA 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 CANDELA 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 Galgos en Familia early rather than rehoming privately; they know CANDELA 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.

CANDELA

Galgo Español · Female

Candela is a very pretty girl who is coming back, returned by the family that adopted her one day. After five years living with her adoptive family, they return Candela to us because they tell us that she has problems with her other dog, which is older, that they do not know how to control the situation and they cannot stay with her. When Candela arrived at the shelter, she was scared, insecure and very sad. She wouldn't stop crying and wouldn't eat anything, and her only intention was to escape. For fear that Candela would get sick or something happened to her, we quickly looked for a foster home for her. In this foster home, Candela quickly gained confidence. She showed herself to be close and affectionate with the people in her foster family and also gets along very well with all the dogs they have at home. They gave us Candela with a description of her, but what we can see is completely different. Candela, when she gains confidence with her family, is all love and sympathy and gets along well with other dogs. Candela needs a new opportunity, a family that really loves her.

Candela es una chica muy guapa que viene de vuelta, devuelta por la familia que un día la adoptó. Después de cinco años viviendo con su familia adoptiva nos devuelven a Candela porque nos dicen que tiene problemas con su otro perro, que es más mayor, que no saben cómo controlar la situación y no se pueden quedar con ella. Cuando Candela llegó al refugio se mostraba asustada, insegura y muy triste. No paraba de llorar y no quería comer nada, y su única intención era escaparse. Por miedo a que Candela enfermara o le pasara algo, rápidamente buscamos una casa de acogida para ella. En esta casa de acogida Candela rápido cogió confianza. Se mostraba cercana y cariñosa con las personas de su familia de acogida y también se lleva muy bien con todos los perros que tienen en casa. Nos entregaron a Candela dando una descripción de ella, pero lo que podemos ver es totalmente diferente. Candela, cuando coge confianza con su familia, es todo amor y simpatía y se lleva bien con los demás perros. Candela necesita una nueva oportunidad, una familia que la quiera de verdad.

About CANDELA

What life with CANDELA looks like

CANDELA is a adult galgo español dog waiting at Galgos en Familia.

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.
