Adopt MINDY

Poodle · Female · Puppy

A MINDY was found on the street with Milo. Both were severely neglected, with fur full of knots and extremely long. The MINDY is very sweet and loved. She adores attention and is used to being held. She is very social with other dogs. Since she and Milo are great friends, we would very much like them to be adopted together. She will be delivered vaccinated, dewormed, spayed, and microchipped.

A Mindy foi encontrada na rua juntamente com o Milo. Ambos estavam muito negligenciados, com o pelo cheio de nós e extremamente comprido. A Mindy é muito doce e querida. Adora atenção e está habituada a estar no colo. É muito sociável com outros cães. Como ela e o Milo são grandes amigos, gostaríamos muito que fossem adotados juntos. Será entregue vacinada, desparasitada, esterilizada e com microchip.

About MINDY

What life with MINDY looks like

MINDY is a small puppy/kitten poodle dog waiting at O Cantinho da Milu in Lisbon.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇵🇹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 MINDY, answered.

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