KATIE

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy · 7 months

Katie was abandoned at the shelter along with her two sisters, Kiki and Khaleesi. Katie is shy on first contact, likely due to not being properly socialized while younger, but she is also a very sweet and gentle dog. She wants to trust people and, if given the chance, we believe she will flourish in a loving home with a patient family. She is very sociable and gets along well with other dogs. She will be surrendered vaccinated, dewormed, spayed, and microchipped.

A Katie foi abandonada no abrigo juntamente com as suas duas irmãs, Kiki e Khaleesi. A Katie é tímida no primeiro contacto, provavelmente por não ter sido devidamente socializada enquanto era mais nova, mas é, ao mesmo tempo, uma cadela muito meiga e doce. Quer confiar nas pessoas e, se tiver essa oportunidade, acreditamos que irá florescer num lar cheio de amor e com uma família paciente. É muito sociável e dá-se muito bem com outros cães.Será entregue vacinada, desparasitada, esterilizada e com microchip.

About KATIE

What life with KATIE looks like

KATIE is a medium-sized puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at O Cantinho da Milu in Lisbon.

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.

🇵🇹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 KATIE, answered.

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