Kid

Male · Puppy · 2 months

I was born in a factory where several dogs regularly have litters... Now the situation is being controlled with the sterilization of the female dog, thanks to the intervention of the Bianca Association and the owner's willingness. I was born there, and someone took me at 2 months old, supposedly to keep me, but after 4 months they put me back in...and look how I returned, scared and with a sadness that marks my eyes. If I could explain to you what I have been through...I like people, but first I want to trust and then I give myself 100%, which is normal after my bad experience... I promise to be a gentle dog and loyal friend, I just want to have a chance, I don't want to stay in a kennel forever because of my fear. I just want you to trust me. Also available for sponsorship!

Características: vacinado e desparasitado Existem várias cadelas numa fábrica, que têm regularmente ninhadas… Agora a situação está a ser controlada, com a esterilização das cadelas, graças à intervenção da Associação Bianca e da vontade do dono da fábrica. Eu nasci ali, e alguém, levou-me com 2 meses de idade, supostamente para ficar comigo, mas ao fim de 4 meses voltou a colocar-me lá…e vejam como eu regressei, com medo e uma tristeza que marca os meus olhos. Se eu conseguisse explicar-vos o que já passei…Gosto de pessoas, mas primeiro quero confiar e depois entrego-me a 100%, o que é normal depois da minha má experiência… Prometo ser um cãozinho dócil e amigo fiel , só quero ter uma oportunidade, não quero ficar para sempre num canil, devido ao meu medo. Só quero que confiem em mim. Também disponível para apadrinhamento !

About Kid

What life with Kid looks like

Kid is a large puppy/kitten dog waiting at Bianca APS in Portugal.

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 Kid, answered.

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