Lycos

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 7 years

Este precioso perro, de aspecto similar a un podenco de tamaño grande, llegó al refugio hace muy poco en unas condiciones delicadas. Le hemos puesto Lycos. Lycos, presentaba una úlcera en el ojo que tuvimos que operar, pero ha demostrado ser todo un luchador y se está recuperando muy bien, rodeado de cuidados y cariño. A pesar de lo que ha pasado, su carácter es simplemente maravilloso. Es un perro extremadamente bueno, tranquilo y noble, de esos que transmiten paz con solo estar a su lado. Disfruta de la compañía sin ser demandante y se adapta con facilidad, mostrando una dulzura que enamora a cualquiera que lo conoce. Ahora solo le falta lo más importante: un hogar donde seguir recuperándose y ser feliz para siempre.

About Lycos

What life with Lycos looks like

Lycos is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Ribercan in Valencia.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 Lycos, answered.

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