FRANKIE

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 6 years

Frankie arrived at the kennels with her sister Lexi, December 2020. Both were very scared and when we picked them up, they would pee and pooh themselves through fright. With time and patience, they became different girls, much more confident, and Lexi was adopted a couple of months later. However, Frankie is still waiting for her forever home. She loves to go out for walks and walks well on the lead, gets on well with other dogs, loves cuddles and sitting on your lap but can still be nervous with new people, so does need time and patience with the right family. She is a crossbreed of around 12 kilos, who like all our adult dogs is fully vaccinated with a passport, microchipped, sterilized; blood tested and receives treatment for fleas and ticks, deworming and prevention of the heartworm.

About FRANKIE

What life with FRANKIE looks like

FRANKIE is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at SAT Animal Rescue Torrevieja.

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 FRANKIE, answered.

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