Adopt GiTANA

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 3 years

GiTANA is one of our special cases, but we are not ready to give up on her. We know that somewhere there is a family willing to give her a chance. GiTANA spent more than 3 years alone on the streets, trying to make a life as best she could, which has made her a wary dog. It breaks our hearts to see her in a corner, not moving, trying to go unnoticed while we are at the animal shelter. She has been with us for more than a year and still cannot eat when we are around. She has never given us or any of her furry friends a bad gesture; she just wants to stay in a quiet corner and let the days pass. It saddens us that she is getting older without the enjoyment of affection, love, and the warmth of living with a family. GiTANA is 5 years old, and we are searching for a family with patience, without stress, who will give her space and know that this is a matter of time and love. Time that unfortunately we cannot dedicate to her at the animal shelter. She will be delivered vaccinated, spayed, and microchipped.

GiTANA es uno de nuestros casos especiales, pero no estamos dispuestos a tirar la toalla, sabemos que en algún lado hay una familia dispuesta a darle una oportunidad. GiTANA se llevó más de 3 años sola, en la calle, buscándose la vida cómo podía, eso ha hecho de ella una perra desconfiada. Se nos parte el alma verla en un ricon, sin moverse, intentando pasar desapercibida mientras nosotros estamos en el refugio. Lleva más de un año con nosotros y todavía no es capaz de comer cuando estamos delante. Nunca ha tenido un gesto malo hacia nosotros ni hacia ninguno de sus compis peludos, ella solo quiere quedarse en un rincón tranquila y que pasen los días. Nos da mucha pena que se haga mayor sin disfrutar de las caricias, el amor y el calor de vivir con una familia. GiTANA tiene 5 y buscamos para ella una familia con paciencia, sin agobios, que le dé su espacio y sepa que esto es cuestión de tiempo y amor. Tiempo que por desgracia no podemos dedicarle nosotros en el refugio. Se entregará vacunada, castrada y con chip.

About GiTANA

What life with GiTANA looks like

GiTANA is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Puntanimals 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 GiTANA, answered.

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