Elvis

Mixed Breed · Unknown

Finally a happy story. Unlike many of our rescues, Elvis had a nice home for his whole life and has a very different story. He was a companion pony and had a lovely home. His previous owner wanted to create a small refuge to rescue other horses in need. Unfortunately, due to personal reasons, this wasn't possible. Despite this, they wanted to make sure that Elvis spends his final years in a happy place. And Elvis is lucky enough to spend it here with his new pony friends, showered with love every day from our volunteers. And you can make Elvis even more lucky by sponsoring him!

About Elvis

What life with Elvis looks like

Elvis is a small adult mixed breed horse waiting at Tenerife Animal Sanctuary in Santa Cruz de Tenerife.

Adopting a horse is a long-term commitment that almost always requires either land or a boarding stable. The shelter will discuss the horse's training level, vet history, and what kind of work or companionship they're suited for. Expect ongoing costs: feed, farrier, vet, and stabling.

🇪🇸Adopting from Spain

Paperwork, vet checks and transport rules differ by species and by country. Ask the shelter what is included and what you will need to arrange before you commit.

Frequently asked

Adopting Elvis, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Elvis?: 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 Elvis on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Elvis if I live in another country?: Sometimes. Whether a horse can move between countries depends on the species and the rules in both countries, and some species need permits or have restrictions. Ask Tenerife Animal Sanctuary what paperwork and transport they require, and check the import rules of your country before you commit.
Is Elvis already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: What a horse comes with (vet checks, vaccinations, identification, paperwork) varies by shelter and species. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask Tenerife Animal Sanctuary directly what is included and what Elvis still needs.
What happens if Elvis 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 Elvis 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.
