CONAN

Rhodesian Ridgeback · Male · Senior · 11 years

Sex: Male - Age: 10 years - Size: Large - Suitable for city living: Yes - Can live on a floor (without outdoor space): Yes - Suitable with dogs: No - Suitable with cats: No - Suitable with children: No - Daily exercise needs: Moderate - Health: Good - Special needs: CONAN is very reactive. He needs an experienced person. We found CONAN wandering through a village 5 years ago and took him in. Shortly after, he became inseparable from another female dog in our care who was more fortunate and was adopted. After much time, CONAN finally had the same luck, but it didn't last long. This was many years ago. CONAN has spent more than half his life in foster care. Don't you think it's time to find his permanent family? CONAN is a 10-year-old large mixed breed of Rhodesian Ridgeback. With people, he usually shows a lot of affection and respect, although children make him quite nervous. On the street, he is reactive to some stimuli, something his foster care is already working on. He has lived with dogs and cats but in his last foster care, he didn't quite tolerate them. For now, we are looking for a family without children or other animals for CONAN, until we see some progress. We believe that an experienced person who sets clear boundaries from the start will make CONAN an amazing dog. CONAN is only adoptable in Zaragoza (not for shipping). This animal is not suitable for homes with children. This animal is for adult-only homes.

Encontramos a Conan vagando por un pueblo hace 5 años y nos hicimos cargo de él. Después de mucho tiempo a Conan le llegó la misma suerte pero le duró muy poco. De esto hace ya muchos años. Conan ha pasado más de la mitad de su vida en adopción. No creéis que que ya es hora de encontrar a su familia definitiva? Conan es un mestizo de Rhodesian Ridgeback de 10 años de edad y tamaño grande. Con personas se suele mostrar muy cariñoso y respetuoso aunque los niños le ponen bastante nervioso. En la calle es reactivo ante algunos estímulos, algo que ya está trabajando su casa de acogida. Ha llegado a convivir con perros y con gatos pero en su última casa de acogida no los acababa de tolerar. Por el momento buscamos para Conan una familia sin niños ni otros animales, hasta que vayamos viendo algunos progresos. Creemos que una persona con experiencia en perros y que le marque muy bien los límites desde el principio hará de Conan un perro espectacular. Conan busca adopción únicamente en Zaragoza (no se envía) Anímate a conocerlo!! Conan busca una tercera oportunidad en la vida, quieres dársela tú? Copyright © 2026 ADALA - All Rights Reserved.

About CONAN

What life with CONAN looks like

CONAN is a large senior rhodesian ridgeback dog waiting at ADALA Zaragoza in Zaragoza.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇪🇸Adopting from Spain

Spanish protectoras generally include sterilization, all vaccinations, microchip ID, and EU pet passport in the adoption fee. Many maintain partnerships with rescue transport providers across the EU.

Frequently asked

Adopting CONAN, answered.

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