Chakala

Female · Adult · 7 years

Hello! I'm Chakala, a Caucasian Shepherd. I turned up on the streets of Alcalá, alongside my brother Coyote, in quite an advanced state of malnutrition. As you can see today, I'm in perfect health and absolutely beautiful. I'm a playful teenager with a bit of a personality when it comes to other dogs (nothing that some good socialization can't fix). I love walks and exploring, and I melt for attention. Would you be the one to brush me every day?

¡Hola! Soy Chakala, una Pastora del Cáucaso. Aparecí por las calles de Alcalá, junto a mi hermano Coyote, en un estado de desnutrición bastante avanzado. A día de hoy, como podéis ver, estoy sanísima y bellísima. Soy una adolescente juguetona con un poco de carácter hacia otros perros (nada que no se arregle con un buen trabajo de socialización). Me encantan los paseos y explorar, y me derrito con los mimos. ¿Quieres ser quien me cepille cada día? 🙂

About Chakala

What life with Chakala looks like

Chakala is a adult dog waiting at Con Alma Protectora in Spain.

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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Chakala, answered.

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