Mixed Breed · Unknown

Apadrina a Mercurio per 1€ al mes Català Any de naixement: 06/2025 Sexe: Mascle Raça: Mestiç Mida: Mitja Coneix en Mercurio: Un Cor Petit que Encara Ha d’Aprendre què És l’Amor En Mercurio va arribar al refugi provinent d’una situació de desatenció extrema, sense cap contacte amb l’ésser humà. No sabia què era caminar amb corretja, ni que una mà també pot servir per donar amor. De mica en mica, els nostres educadors l’han anat socialitzant, i en Mercurio és un dels que més ha evolucionat. És sociable amb altres gossos i, amb les persones, ja s’intueix que serà un gos molt amorós un cop superi les seves últimes pors. El seu procés no ha estat fàcil. Encara li costa confiar del tot en els humans, i necessita temps i paciència durant els passejos i el contacte físic. Amb gats no hi ha conviscut, així que de moment no sabem com hi reaccionaria. Adoptar un gos amb por és un repte, però també és un dels gestos més gratificants que existeixen. Cada petit avanç es viu com una victòria, i ajudar en Mercurio a conèixer la cara més bonica de la vida seria un regal per a tots dos. El que en Mercurio Necessita: Descobrir el Món des de Zero: Mai ha après les coses més bàsiques de la vida amb humans, i tot serà nou per a ell. Una Llar sense Presses: Necessita temps per entendre que ja no viu en aquell lloc fosc i brut. Algú que Celebri les Petites Victòries: Un primer contacte, un primer joc, un primer moment de calma: cada pas serà motiu de festa. Companyia Canina: Es porta bé amb altres gossos, i tenir-ne un altre a casa podria ajudar-lo a agafar confiança més ràpid. Introducció Gradual a les Persones: Especialment amb desconeguts, visites o entorns nous. Si voleu conèixer en Mercurio, us esperem al refugi. Ajudeu-lo a trencar les últimes barreres que li queden.

No sabía qué era caminar con correa, ni que una mano también puede servir para dar amor. Poco a poco, nuestros educadores lo han ido socializando, y Mercurio es uno de los que más ha evolucionado. Es sociable con otros perros y, con las personas, ya se intuye que será un perro muy cariñoso una vez supere sus últimos miedos. Su proceso no ha sido fácil. Todavía le cuesta confiar del todo en los humanos, y necesita tiempo y paciencia durante los paseos y el contacto físico. Con gatos no ha convivido, así que de momento no sabemos cómo reaccionaría. Adoptar a un perro con miedo es un reto, pero también es uno de los gestos más gratificantes que existen. Cada pequeño avance se vive como una victoria, y ayudar a Mercurio a conocer la cara más bonita de la vida sería un regalo para los dos. Lo que Mercurio Necesita: Descubrir el Mundo desde Cero: Nunca ha aprendido las cosas más básicas de la vida junto a humanos, y todo será nuevo para él. Un Hogar sin Prisas: Necesita tiempo para entender que ya no vive en aquel lugar oscuro y sucio. Alguien que Celebre las Pequeñas Victorias: Un primer contacto, un primer juego, un primer momento de calma: cada paso será motivo de fiesta. Compañía Canina: Se lleva bien con otros perros, y tener otro en casa podría ayudarle a coger confianza más rápido. Introducción Gradual a las Personas: Especialmente con desconocidos, visitas o entornos nuevos. Si queréis conocer a Mercurio, os esperamos en el refugio. Ayudadle a romper las últimas barreras que le quedan. Para más información llama al o envía un e-mail a English Age: Año de nacimiento: 06/2025 Gender: Male Breed: Mixed Breed Size: Medium Meet Mercurio: A Small Heart Who Still Has to Learn What Love Is Mercurio arrived at the shelter from a situation of extreme neglect, with no contact with humans at all. He didn’t know what it meant to walk on a leash, or that a hand can also be used to give love. Little by little, our trainers have been socializing him, and Mercurio is one of the dogs who has made the most progress. He’s sociable with other dogs, and with people, it’s already clear he’ll be a very loving dog once he overcomes his last fears. His journey hasn’t been easy. He still struggles to fully trust humans, and needs time and patience during walks and physical contact. He hasn’t lived with cats, so we don’t yet know how he’d react. Adopting a fearful dog is a challenge, but it’s also one of the most rewarding things you can do. Every small step forward feels like a victory, and helping Mercurio discover the most beautiful side of life would be a gift for you both. What Mercurio Needs: A World Learned from Scratch: He’s never learned the most basic things about life alongside humans, so everything will be new to him. A Home with No Rush: He needs time to understand he’s no longer in that dark, dirty place. Someone Who Celebrates Small Wins: A first touch, a first game, a first calm moment — every step will be worth celebrating. Canine Company: He gets along well with other dogs, and having one at home could help him build confidence faster. Gradual Introduction to People: Especially strangers, visitors, or new environments. If you’d like to meet Mercurio, we’ll be waiting for you at the shelter. Help him break down the last barriers standing in his way.

About Mercurio

What life with Mercurio looks like

Mercurio is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Protectora d in Spain.

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 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 Mercurio, answered.

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