LILLY

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 4 years

The life of LILLY has been a constant change… First, she was brought to the shelter because her owner fell ill. Then she was adopted and returned a few months later because the adopter also fell ill. Later, she was adopted by a family who returned her after six months, saying she was too active to live in an apartment. Poor LILLY deserves better. She deserves stability, a home full of love, and people truly committed to her. LILLY is a gentle dog, very attached to her people, obedient, and sociable. She is used to living indoors and walks well on a leash. She gets along well with other dogs. She will be handed over vaccinated, dewormed, spayed, and microchipped.

A vida da Lilly tem sido uma constante mudança… Primeiro foi trazida para o abrigo porque a dona ficou doente. Depois foi adotada e devolvida alguns meses mais tarde porque a adotante também ficou doente. Mais tarde voltou a ser adotada por uma família que a devolveu após 6 meses, dizendo que era demasiado ativa para viver num apartamento. A pobre Lilly merece melhor. Merece estabilidade, um lar cheio de amor e pessoas realmente comprometidas com ela. A Lilly é uma cadela gentil, muito ligada às suas pessoas, obediente e sociável. Está habituada a viver dentro de casa e anda muito bem à trela. Dá-se bem com outros cães. Será entregue vacinada, desparasitada, esterilizada e com microchip.

About LILLY

What life with LILLY looks like

LILLY is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at O Cantinho da Milu in Lisbon.

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 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 LILLY, answered.

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