MARFY

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 6 years

A MARFY was found on the street. She was very scared. Initially, she was fed by neighbors who, after some time, managed to earn her trust and capture her. We accepted her into the our shelter. She is gaining confidence day by day. She no longer runs away from us and even enjoys going for walks on a leash. She is gentle and gets along well with all the other dogs. The MARFY will be delivered vaccinated, dewormed, spayed, and microchipped.

A Marfy foi encontrada na rua. Estava muito assustada. Começou por ser alimentada por vizinhos que conseguiram, após algum tempo, ganhar a confiança dela e capturá-la. Aceitámos acolhê-la no abrigo. Está a ganhar confiança de dia para dia. Não foge de nós e até gosta de ir passear de trela. É meiga e dá-se bem com todos os cães. A Marfy será entregue vacinada, desparasitada, esterilizada e com microchip.

About MARFY

What life with MARFY looks like

MARFY 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 MARFY, answered.

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