José - 6 ano(s) e

Male · Puppy · 10 months

Jose is a lovely, gentle and playful dog with people he knows and trusts and where he feels safe and comfortable. Outside of the environments that are comfortable for him and in the presence of strangers or people he does not know well, he shows himself to be still very cautious and timid. Jose has made great progress over time and becomes each step a more confident dog.

PT·Show original

O José é um cão adorável, meigo e brincalhão com as pessoas que conhece e confia e onde se sinta seguro e à vontade. Fora dos amibentes que lhe são confortáveis e perante pessoas desconhecidas ou que não conhece tão bem mostra-se ainda muito desconfiado e medroso. O José tem feito grandes progressos ao longo do tempo e torna-se a cada passinho um cão mais confiante. Saibam como adoptar ou apadrinhar em uniaozoofila.org

About José - 6 ano(s) e

What life with José - 6 ano(s) e looks like

José - 6 ano(s) e is a large 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: Fearful and distrustful of strangers, needs patient socialization

🇵🇹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 José - 6 ano(s) e, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about José - 6 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 José - 6 ano(s) e on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt José - 6 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 José - 6 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 José - 6 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 José - 6 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.
