Adopt Flor

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 4 years

Flor was severely emaciated and so weak that she could barely walk when discovered in Sto. Amaro at the end of 2022. After we secured her, Flor was immediately checked at the animal clinic. The blood test was negative, so she did not have heartworms, which was feared given her extreme thinness. She must have been on her own for a long time with little to no food intake. In the meantime, "the Flower" has gained a little weight—she is still very slender—but she has been vaccinated and spayed. She would be ready for a new life with a family that loves her! As soon as we have more information, we will update the description...

Flor wurde Ende 2022 komplett abgemagert und so schwach, dass sie kaum laufen konnte in Sto. Amaro entdeckt. Nachdem wir sie sichern konnten, wurde Flor umgehend in der Tierklinik durchgecheckt. Der Bluttest war negativ, sie hatte also keine Herzwürmer, was befürchtet wurde, da sie so dünn war. Sie muss seit langer Zeit allein auf sich gestellt gewesen sein und kaum Nahrung zu sich genommen haben. Zwischenzeitlich hat die "Blume" etwas zugenommen - ist aber immer noch sehr schlank - wurde geimpft und kastriert. Sie wäre bereit für ein neues Leben bei einer Familie, die sie liebt! Sobald wir mehr wisssen, aktualisieren wir die Beschreibung...

About Flor

What life with Flor looks like

Flor is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Streetdogs Madeira e.V. in Illingen.

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 Germany

German rescues typically require an in-person home visit (Vorkontrolle) or detailed video home check before approving adoption. Animals leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with a valid EU pet passport. Adoption fees usually fall between €250 and €450, covering veterinary preparation.

Frequently asked

Adopting Flor, answered.

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