Adopt Caspar

Podenco · Male · Puppy · 7 months

Caspar was found by the nightwatch, tied up in the bushes not in front but behind the shelter, luckily she heard Caspar, poor boy was shaking and so hungry. Caspar is still a bit shy with people when in new situations or when approached by new people, but he gathers courage really quickly, and is such a happy, social, playful young boy! He is great with other dogs, and having other dogs around him, gives him a lot of confidence, and brings him out of his shell much faster. At the moment Caspar is looking for a home with one or more dogs already waiting for him, and since he does not seem to have a lot of "life experience" yet, he would like to live close to the nature, in a quiet neighborhood, with easygoing daily routine - at least until he feels safe & secure in his new life, and becomes more familiar with the "human world". Caspar is a mixed Podenco boy, and like Podencos do, he loves to jump around in the bushes, looking for bugs and mice, but he also loves to stay around the humans, search your pockets for snacks, and invite his canine friends to play. At the moment he is still shy to walk on the leash, but his dog friends are helping him become more confident about walking on the leash. While he is running around in the dog park, he forgets all shyness or worries, and becomes just a cheerful puppy! His current shoulder height is 51cm, and he still has some growth left in him.

About Caspar

What life with Caspar looks like

Caspar is a medium-sized puppy/kitten podenco dog waiting at Triple A Marbella in Marbella.

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 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 Caspar, answered.

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