GIULIA

Labrador Retriever · Female · Adult · 8 years

Giulia was found on the street. Someone abandoned her. She had an old, dirty collar, a sign that she once belonged to someone... She had large teats, a sign that she had puppies many times. Giulia is extremely sweet and gentle. She loves human attention, is friendly with other dogs, is calm and balanced, and walks well on a leash. An incredible female dog. Whoever adopts her wins the lottery. Giulia will be delivered vaccinated, dewormed, spayed, and microchipped.

A Giulia foi encontrada na rua. Alguém a abandonou. Tinha uma coleira velha e suja, sinal de que em tempos pertenceu a alguém… Tinha as maminhas grandes, sinal de que teve cachorros muitas vezes. A Giulia é extremamente doce e meiga. Adora atenção humana, é amigável com outros cães, é calma e equilibrada e anda bem à trela. Uma cadela incrível. Quem a adotar, ganha a lotaria. A Giulia será entregue vacinada, desparasitada, esterilizada e com microchip.

About GIULIA

What life with GIULIA looks like

GIULIA is a large adult labrador retriever dog waiting at O Cantinho da Milu in Lisbon.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇵🇹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 GIULIA, answered.

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