Gru

American Bully · Male · Adult · 8 years

5 years ago, on the day Gru was rescued... "We were notified that there were several dogs in poor condition in the mountains of Almuñécar. We alerted Seprona and went with them to rescue them. In the enclosure there was a pitbull, a podenco with poor health and a mongrel. All scared and in very bad condition. In the album photos you will find more details of the rescue." Gru is now well socialized... sometimes he seems a bit grumpy, but it's just for the camera. As he is getting older, he would really benefit from his own family. It's time after so much suffering.

El día del rescate de Gru, hace ya 5 años… "Nos avisaron de que había varios perros en mal estado en las montañas de Almuñécar. Avisamos a Seprona y fuimos con ellos a rescatarlos. En el recinto había un pitbull, un podenco con mala salud y un mestizo. Todos asustados y en muy mal estado. En las fotos del álbum encontrarán más detalles del rescate." Gru ahora está bien socializado… a veces parece un poco gruñón, pero es solo para la cámara. Como se está haciendo mayor, le vendría muy bien una familia propia. Ya es hora después de tanto sufrimiento.

About Gru

What life with Gru looks like

Gru is a medium-sized adult american bully dog waiting at Sos Animales Salobreña in Granada.

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

Frequently asked

Adopting Gru, answered.

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