GRIMM

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 3 years

Grimm arrived at our shelter in December 2023, at just 1 year and a half old. He is a beautiful Malinois mix: active, playful, and fond of good walks and cuddles. Once he gets to know you, he gives you his whole heart. Although he is very well cared for at the shelter, with daily walks and volunteers who give him time and affection, Grimm needs something more: the peace and stability of a home. A quiet place, a person who trusts him and lets him be the ideal companion we know he is. Unfortunately, a few days ago he went through a difficult episode. During one of his walks, a sudden noise from a car, which sounded like firecrackers, frightened the group of dogs who were enjoying the walk. In the midst of the panic, one of the dogs redirected its fear toward Grimm, biting him badly. We had to rush him to the veterinary hospital, where he was seen quickly. The diagnosis: fractures of the radius and ulna, and deep bite wounds. The next day he underwent surgery, which was successful, but unfortunately the wounds on his paw had a very guarded prognosis. Today we explained to him that, despite all our efforts, and with all the love in the world, we made the decision to prioritize his life, even though that meant losing his paw. Grimm is a fighter. He is recovering with incredible strength and great spirit, but now more than ever he needs that peaceful home where he can recover, learn to live with his new condition, and above all, be happy. If you believe you can offer him this special place... write to us. Grimm is waiting for you.

Descripción Grimm llegó a nuestra protectora en diciembre de 2023, con apenas 1 año y medio de vida. Es un precioso cruzado de Malinois: activo, juguetón, amante de los buenos paseos y mimos, cuando te conoce, te entrega su corazón. Aunque en el refugio está muy bien atendido, con paseos diarios y voluntarios que le dedican tiempo y cariño, Grimm necesita algo más: la paz y la estabilidad de un hogar. Un lugar tranquilo, una persona que confíe en él y que le permita ser ese compañero ideal que sabemos que es. Desgraciadamente, hace unos días vivió un duro episodio. Durante uno de sus paseos, un ruido repentino de un coche �que sonó como si estallaran petardos� asustó mucho al grupo de perros que estaba disfrutando del paseo. En medio del pánico, uno de los perros redirigió su miedo hacia Grimm, mordiéndole gravemente. Tuvimos que llevarlo de urgencia al hospital veterinario, donde le atendieron rápidamente. El diagnóstico: fractura de radio y cúbito, y heridas profundas por mordedura. Al día siguiente le operaron con éxito, pero, desgraciadamente, las heridas en su patita tenían un pronóstico muy reservado. Hoy le explicamos que, a pesar de todos los esfuerzos, con todo el amor del mundo, tomamos la decisión de priorizar su vida, aunque eso significara perder su patita. Grimm es un luchador. Se está recuperando con una fortaleza increíble y mucho ánimo, pero ahora más que nunca necesita ese hogar tranquilo donde poder recuperarse, aprender a vivir con su nueva condición y, sobre todo, ser feliz. Si crees que le puedes ofrecer este sitio especial... escríbenos. Grimm te está esperando.

About GRIMM

What life with GRIMM looks like

GRIMM is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at ADAM Protectora El Masnou in Spain.

A 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. Many maintain partnerships with rescue transport providers across the EU.

Frequently asked

Adopting GRIMM, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about GRIMM?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. ADAM Protectora El Masnou handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw GRIMM on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt GRIMM if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — ADAM Protectora El Masnou 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is GRIMM 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 GRIMM 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 ADAM Protectora El Masnou early rather than rehoming privately; they know GRIMM 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.
