How do I contact the shelter about Mia?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Triple A Marbella handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Mia on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Mia if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Triple A Marbella 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 Mia 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 Mia 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 Triple A Marbella early rather than rehoming privately; they know Mia 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 (EN). 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.

Mia

Female · Young · 2 years

Mia's world was turned completely upside down. From one day to the next, her family surrendered her to our Spanish partner shelter Triple A, claiming a sudden allergy. Without any warning she lost her home and ended up in a cold kennel. Understandably, the noisy shelter routine makes her extremely nervous. The constant stress and restlessness take a heavy toll on this sensitive girl, which is why she has become very thin and is visibly struggling. She urgently needs a loving environment to process the shock of being given up, to finally find some calm, and to put weight back on. As is typical for her breed and her young age, Mia is an active girl full of drive. She loves to run and watches everything around her with curiosity. She is very loyal and bonds closely with her people once she has learned to trust them. She can be placed as an only dog and enjoy all the attention, but she is also happy to join a friendly resident dog she can take her cues from. At the moment she shares her kennel with a large male. On a recent trip into the city she showed her affectionate and curious side. She scans her surroundings a lot, but never loses contact with her people. She handled a visit to a café beautifully and was able to settle down there without any trouble. For this sporty girl we are looking for committed people who appreciate her qualities and her energy. She is absolutely not a dog for pure couch days. She wants to be challenged both physically and mentally. A home that gives her the security she needs to overcome her current confusion and let go of her stress will be rewarded with a loyal and bright companion. Since she is still very young, she is right at the beginning of her training and is looking forward to learning the basics together with her people. Mia's shoulder height is 65 cm.

About Mia

What life with Mia looks like

Mia is a large young adult dog waiting at Triple A Marbella in Marbella.

An young 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.

Note from the shelter: Currently confused and nervous due to sudden abandonment, bonded with another dog named Noa

🇪🇸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.
