Adopt Floyd

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 7 years

The life of Floyd has had to be sad. At two years old, we imagine she ended up in a dog pound due to her blindness. Being in a kennel enclosure surrounded by barking and noises is very hard for any animal, let alone one who is blind. She is a well-behaved dog, compatible with other dogs (for now, she hasn't been tested with other animals) and is looking for a special family that will help her realize that not all humans are the same.

La vida de Floyd ha tenido que ser triste. Con sus dos años acabó en una perrera imaginamos que por su ceguera. Estar en un chenil rodeado de ladridos, ruidos...es muy duro para cualquier animal, más para uno ciego. Es un perro de buen carácter, compatible con otros perros (de momento no está testado con más animales) que busca una familia especial que le ayude a ver que no todos los humanos somos iguales.

About Floyd

What life with Floyd looks like

Floyd is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Protectora Defensa Animal Palentina 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 (typically €250–€400 for a dog, €100–€180 for a cat). Many maintain partnerships with rescue transport providers across the EU.

Frequently asked

Adopting Floyd, answered.

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