Celine

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

If I had space for one more dog then Celine would stay Celine is a one year old fila/Podengo mix - she inherited the sweet, gentle fila character and face shape and Podengo colouring and longer legs. She is the most gentle, loving dog, she is confident at home and now gets excited to meet visitors. Celine is very laid back most of the time, she sleeps on my bed, rolls over for belly rubs when I wake up then stays in bed until I'm ready to go downstairs. If you are interested in adopting Celine, please send a message.

About Celine

What life with Celine looks like

Celine is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Azores Dog Rescue in Portugal.

A young 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 Celine, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Celine?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Azores Dog Rescue handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Celine on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Celine if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Azores Dog Rescue 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Celine 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 Celine 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 Azores Dog Rescue early rather than rehoming privately; they know Celine 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.
