KOLDO

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 8 years

Rescued by ERA after many months living abandoned on the outskirts of a town in Madrid. KOLDO arrived with us as a puppy, growing up abandoned on the streets, scavenging from trash bins. As of today, after many months with us, he still doesn't let us touch him, and we don't know what trauma he carries from his early months of abandonment. But thanks to some volunteers who work with him with constancy, patience, and love, he is slowly advancing. We have already managed to get him to accept the leash so we can take him for walks, which he enjoys immensely; he also loves playing fetch; he gets happy when he sees the ball and leaves it at your feet, waiting for you to throw it. With his fellow sheltermates, who unfortunately have been many since he came to us, he has an enviable, sociable, and balanced behavior. We don't know exactly what happened to KOLDO to not allow contact with us, but we do know that he loves being with people, learning, and interacting with us. So we are looking for that person who wants to discover and help bring out... this adorable dog. >>>>><<< From ACUNR, we will provide full support, assistance, and follow-up for his adaptation. This includes a pre-adoption period where, to build a bond with KOLDO, we consider it very important for the adopters to get to know him at the shelter. We will organize some pre-adoption visits where you can walk him, play with him, etc., always with one of the volunteers who knows him best, and who will also be the one to follow up and support the adoption. He is dewormed, vaccinated, microchipped, tested for diseases, neutered, and comes with an adoption contract.

Rescatado por ERA tras muchos meses viviendo abandonado en las afueras de un pueblo de Madrid. Koldo llegó a nosotros siendo un cachorro aun, creció abandonado en la calle comiendo en los contenedores. A día de hoy, después de muchos meses ya con nosotros aun no nos deja tocarle, no sabemos qué trauma arrastra después de pasar sus primeros meses abandonado. Pero gracias a unos voluntarios que con constancia, paciencia y cariño trabajan con el, poco a poco va avanzando, ya hemos conseguido que acepte que le pongamos la correa para poder sacarle a pasear, de lo cual disfruta enormemente, también le encanta jugar a la pelota; se pone feliz cuando la ve y te la deja a los pies esperando a que la lances. Con sus compañeros de recinto, que lamentablemente ya han sido muchos desde que está con nosotros, tienen un comportamiento envidiable, sociable y equilibrado. No sabemos exactamente que le pasó a Koldo para no permitir el contacto con nosotros, pero si sabemos que por el contrario, es un perro al que le encanta estar con las personas, aprender e interactuar con nosotros, así que buscamos a esa persona, que quiera descubrir y ayudar a salir a la superficie... a este bombón de perro. >>>>><<< Desde ACUNR PRESTAREMOS TODO NUESTRO APOYO, AYUDA Y SEGUIMIENTO PARA SU ADAPTACIÓN, esto incluye un periodo previo a la adopción en el que para crear vínculo con Koldo consideramos muy importante conocerle en el albergue, organizaremos con los adoptantes algunas visitas previas destinadas a que os conozcáis, le paseéis, juguéis con él, etc. Visitas compartidas siempre con uno de los voluntarios que mejor conoce a Koldo, y que será a su vez quien haga el posterior seguimiento y apoyo a la adopción. Se entrega desparasitado, vacunado, chipado, con las pruebas de enfermedades hechas, castrado y con contrato de adopción.

About KOLDO

What life with KOLDO looks like

KOLDO is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at ACUNR - Animales Con Un Nuevo Rumbo in Spain.

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 (typically €250–€400 for a dog, €100–€180 for a cat). Many maintain partnerships with rescue transport providers across the EU.

Frequently asked

Adopting KOLDO, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about KOLDO?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. ACUNR - Animales Con Un Nuevo Rumbo handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw KOLDO on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt KOLDO if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — ACUNR - Animales Con Un Nuevo Rumbo 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 KOLDO 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 KOLDO 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 ACUNR - Animales Con Un Nuevo Rumbo early rather than rehoming privately; they know KOLDO 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. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
