Lindo

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 7 years

I am very smart and curious and I really like freedom. Birth date: 01.01.2019 size: medium My life story: I lived my whole life in freedom, in the area of Praia do Camilo. I lived with my family but, little by little, they were caught and given for adoption. I was alone for more than a year, being cared for and fed by the people in the area, until the dog shelter of Lagos caught me. I ended up being taken to the shelter in January 2022. My temperament: I am a peaceful dog, not aggressive with people. I like some dogs more than others, but I don't get into problems. Since I lived my whole life in freedom, I don't like being kept in the shelter. I also don't like being put on a leash, I'm not used to it. What I really liked would be to find a home where they gave me the freedom to come and go, because I always end up coming back. Maybe one day this will happen and I will be able to be happy again.

Eu sou muito inteligente e curioso e gosto muito de liberdade. Data de nascimento: 01.01.2019 Porte: médio A minha história de vida: vivi toda a minha vida em liberdade, na zona da Praia do Camilo. Vivia com a minha família mas, pouco a pouco, foram sendo apanhados e dados para adoção. Fiquei sozinho durante mais de um ano, a ser cuidado e alimentado pelos habitantes da zona, até que o Canil de Lagos me apanhou. Acabei por ser levado para o abrigo em janeiro de 2022. O meu temperamento: eu sou um cão pacífico, nada agressivo com as pessoas. Gosto de alguns cães mais do que outros, mas não arranjop problemas. Como vivi toda a vida em liberdade não gosto de estar preso no abrigo. Também não gosto que me ponham uma trela, não estou habituado. O que eu gostava mesmo era de arranjar uma casa onde me dessem a liberdade de ir e vir, pois eu acabo sempre por voltar. Talvez um dia isso aconteça e eu consiga voltar a ser feliz.

About Lindo

What life with Lindo looks like

Lindo is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Cadela Carlota & Companhia in Portugal.

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 Lindo, answered.

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