Adopt Doggy

Mixed Breed · Unknown

Doggy finally has his happily ever after! This beautiful dog came to us a couple of years ago with his sweet friend Gizmo, after their loving owner could no longer care for them due to health reasons. Gizmo has found her forever home, so now it's Doggy's turn! Doggy is a Husky x German shepherd mix and a very sweet and cuddly dog. We don't know Doggy's exact age, but he's not young anymore. He is partially blind and has hip dysplasia which is typical with adult German shepherds, meaning he is less active. He is still fit for walks, is curious, and loves to meet and play with new people and dogs. After a life of uncertainty, Doggy has finally found his forever home and companion with one of our dedicated volunteers. And we think they make the perfect pair! He spends his days following his human around the sanctuary and getting lots and LOTS of cuddles from everyone he passes.

About Doggy

What life with Doggy looks like

Doggy is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tenerife Animal Sanctuary in Santa Cruz de Tenerife.

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 Doggy, answered.

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