Chacal

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 3 months

The Chacal is up for adoption. The Chacal was born in a hole, along with his two brothers. We managed to rescue two, and we are trying to rescue the other one, but without success so far. We have never seen the mother and therefore could not rescue her either. They lived in an isolated place and were scared, they didn't let anyone touch them. They came a bit scared, but surprisingly and quickly became gentle and playful. Male, medium size, 3 months old, dewormed. Anadia, Aveiro. Contact to adopt at 918570448 or 919952784 (calls to national mobile networks)

About Chacal

What life with Chacal looks like

Chacal is a medium-sized puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Quatro Patas e Focinhos in Portugal.

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 Chacal, answered.

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