Esme

Belgian Malinois · Female

Esme is a young female Belgian Malinois mix with virtually inexhaustible energy. She is VERY active. She loves to run, explore and make the most of every moment outside the kennel, so we are looking for a family that enjoys outdoor life and can offer her long walks, hikes or any activity that allows her to channel all that energy. When she manages to release some of that intensity, she shows her affectionate side and really enjoys the company of people. Due to her mixed breed, Esme needs not only physical exercise, but also mental stimulation and a family that knows the needs of this type of dog and is willing to dedicate time to her education and well-being. She is not a dog for just any home, but in the right hands she will be an exceptional companion for an active and committed family. If you want to adopt ESME, please contact 688 78 82 47.

ES·Show original

Esme es una perra joven, mestiza de pastor belga malinois, con una energía prácticamente inagotable. Es MUY activa. Le encanta correr, explorar y aprovechar cada momento fuera del chenil, por lo que buscamos para ella una familia que disfrute de la vida al aire libre y pueda ofrecerle largos paseos, rutas o cualquier actividad que le permita canalizar toda esa energía. Cuando consigue descargar parte de esa intensidad, muestra su lado cariñoso y disfruta mucho de la compañía de las personas. Por su cruce de razas, Esme necesita no solo ejercicio físico, sino también estimulación mental y una familia que conozca las necesidades de este tipo de perros y esté dispuesta a dedicar tiempo a su educación y bienestar. No es una perra para cualquier hogar, pero en las manos adecuadas será una compañera excepcional para una familia activa y comprometida. Si quieres adoptar a ESME ponte en contacto con el 688 78 82 47.

About Esme

What life with Esme looks like

Esme is an adult belgian malinois dog waiting at Apasos Vitoria 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. Many maintain partnerships with rescue transport providers across the EU.

Frequently asked

Adopting Esme, answered.

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