JULIO

Male · Young · 3 years

JULIO came to us from a municipal dog shelter. As far as we know, JULIO and many other small dogs like him were taken from a collector, where they lived in deplorable conditions. JULIO is shy at first contact, but just needs some time to gain confidence. He is a very sweet and gentle dog. He gets along well with other dogs and loves their company. In a home with patient and loving humans, he will surely thrive. The presence of a social dog would be an added value. JULIO will be delivered vaccinated, dewormed, neutered, and with a microchip.

O Julio chegou até nós vindo de um canil municipal. Pelo que sabemos, o Julio e muitos outros pequenos podengos como ele foram retirados a um acumulador, onde viviam em condições lamentáveis. O Julio é tímido no primeiro contacto, mas precisa apenas de algum tempo para ganhar confiança. É um cão muito doce e meigo. Dá-se bem com outros cães e adora a sua companhia. Num lar com humanos pacientes e carinhosos irá certamente florescer. A presença de um cão social seria uma mais-valia. O Julio será entregue vacinado, desparasitado, esterilizado e com microchip.

About JULIO

What life with JULIO looks like

JULIO is a small young adult dog waiting at O Cantinho da Milu in Lisbon.

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 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 JULIO, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about JULIO?
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 JULIO on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt JULIO 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 JULIO 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 JULIO 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 JULIO 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.
