Faina

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

Faina came to us with her mother, Asia. She is described by kennel staff as an incredibly snuggly, affectionate dog who truly loves the company of both people and other dogs. Because she enjoys companionship so much, we feel she would do best in a home where she isn’t alone for long periods, ideally with another dog for company. Faina can be a little timid at times and doesn’t always push herself forward, but it doesn’t take her long to warm up, especially if cuddles and kisses are on offer. Her wiggly bum of excitement never fails to make everyone laugh once she feels comfortable. She has a beautiful temperament: social, gentle, and soft-natured with both people and dogs. a good all rounder.

About Faina

What life with Faina looks like

Faina is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Live PAWS Tenerife in Spain.

An young 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 Faina, answered.

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