LANESSA

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

A LANESSA arrived with us when she was just a baby. Her mother was found on the street with the puppies. She was adopted at just 2 months old, but a year later was returned because, according to the adopters, she is "too active" and not happy in an apartment. The LANESSA is a very sweet, gentle, and sociable female dog. She has a lot of energy like any dog. A home or farm with another dog for her to run with would be ideal. She gets along well with all dogs, loves to play, and walks nicely on a leash. She is house-trained, having lived in an urban apartment. She was well-groomed. The LANESSA will be delivered vaccinated, dewormed, spayed, and microchipped.

A Lanessa chegou até nós quando era apenas um bebé. A mãe foi encontrada na rua com as crias. Foi rapidamente adotada, com apenas 2 meses de idade, mas um ano depois foi devolvida porque, segundo os adotantes, é “demasiado ativa” e não é feliz num apartamento. A Lanessa é uma cadela muito meiga, dócil e sociável. Tem muita energia como qualquer cachorra. Uma vivenda ou quinta com a companhia de outro cão para ela correr seria o ideal. Dá-se bem com todos os cães, gosta de brincar e passeia bem à trela. Está habituada a viver em casa, viveu num apartamento em meio urbano. Era asseada. A Lanessa será entregue vacinada, desparasitada, esterilizada e com microchip.

About LANESSA

What life with LANESSA looks like

LANESSA is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed 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 LANESSA, answered.

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