Gal - 10 ano(s) e

Female · Puppy · 6 months

Gal is a brave and courageous princess. She came to us very sick, with advanced leishmaniasis. Fortunately, she managed to stabilize but will always have visible marks from the suffering life she had before being rescued. Now Gal is in good health, but will always need medication and monitoring. Gal is a small dog with more fragile health compared to a "normal" dog. She has very sensitive skin, which easily gets injured. Despite not having perfect health, Gal's personality is one of the greatest kindnesses you can meet. She has immense joy and sweetness. There is no one who knows her and does not love her. She is a love. Gal is sociable with most dogs. She is a medium-small sized dog, loves affection and cuddles, is also very expressive and tender, and takes advantage of everything she can have recovered the opportunity to live. All she needs now is a family that gives her a life full of love and comfort. Learn how to adopt at www.uniaozoofila.

A Gal é uma princesa corajosa e valente. Chegou até nós muito doente, com leishmaniose avançada. Felizmente conseguiu estabilizar mas ficará para sempre com marcas visíveis da vida de sofrimento que teve antes de ser resgatada. Agora a Gal está de boa saúde, mas terá sempre de ser medicada e vigiada. A Gal é uma miúda de sáude mais frágil em comparação com um cão "normal". Tem uma pele muito sensivel, facilmente faz ferida. Apesar de não ter uma saúde perfeita, de personalidade a Gal é das maiores ternuras que se pode conhecer. Tem uma alegria e doçura imensas. Não há ninguém que a conheça e não a adore. É um amor. A Gal é sociável com a maioria dos cães. É uma miúda de porte médio-pequeno, adora mimo e colo, é também muito expressiva e ternurenta, e aproveita tudo o que pode ter recuperado a oportunidade de viver. Só lhe falta agora uma família que lhe dê uma vida com todo o amor e conforto possível. Saibam como adoptar em www.uniaozoofila.org

About Gal - 10 ano(s) e

What life with Gal - 10 ano(s) e looks like

Gal - 10 ano(s) e is a medium-sized puppy/kitten dog waiting at União Zoófila in Lisboa.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

Note from the shelter: Leishmaniasis survivor requiring ongoing medication and monitoring. Sensitive skin prone to wounds. Requires regular veterinary care.

🇵🇹Adopting from Portugal

Portuguese rescues coordinate extensively with European rescue networks for cross-border placements, especially for galgos and podencos. Sterilization, vaccinations, and microchip ID are standard. Adoption fees typically cover the full vet workup.

Frequently asked

Adopting Gal - 10 ano(s) e, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Gal - 10 ano(s) e?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. União Zoófila handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Gal - 10 ano(s) e on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Gal - 10 ano(s) e if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — União Zoófila 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 Gal - 10 ano(s) e 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 Gal - 10 ano(s) e 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 União Zoófila early rather than rehoming privately; they know Gal - 10 ano(s) e 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 (PT). 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.
