Mocca

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 13 years

I am very active and very curious about everything. I love running and playing. Birth date: 11.04.2013 size: small-medium My life story: I was taken to the shelter as a puppy, along with three brothers. Two of them were adopted, but me and my brother Galão stayed and we still live at the shelter today. My temperament: I am a friendly and very active dog. One of my favorite games is to chase distracted volunteers and escape through the gate. Then I run around the shelter to see who catches me first. It's always fun. I get along well with my companions and I love playing and having fun. I would like to find a home and a family because I have been at the shelter for many years. I know I would behave well.

Eu sou muito ativo e muito curioso em relação a tudo. Adoro correr e brincar. Data de nascimento: 11.04.2013 Porte: médio-pequeno A minha história de vida: fui levado para o abrigo ainda cachorro, com mais três irmãos. Dois deles foram adotados, mas eu e o meu irmão Galão fomos ficando e ainda hoje vivemos no abrigo. O meu temperamento: eu sou um cão simpático e muito ativo. Uma das minhas brincadeiras favoritas é apanhar os voluntários distraídos e escapar-me pelo portão. Depois dou várias voltas à volta do abrigo a ver quem me apanha primeiro. É sempre divertido. Dou-me bem com os meus companheiros e adoro brincadeira e diversão. Gostava de encontrar uma casa e uma família porque já estou há muitos anos no abrigo. Eu sei que me ia portar bem.

About Mocca

What life with Mocca looks like

Mocca is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at Cadela Carlota & Companhia in Portugal.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇵🇹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 Mocca, answered.

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