Mourinho

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 3 months

Mourinho was rescued from the streets, along with his siblings. We are still picking up the rest of the litter, so one by one they are being reunited at our our shelter and recovering their health to be ready for adoption. Mourinho is a puppy who, despite being very afraid, is very photogenic and incredibly beautiful (the photos do not do him justice). We know that with patience and lots of love, he will grow into a handsome pup who will reveal his lovely personality. He is about 3 months old and will likely be medium-sized (we cannot guarantee the exact size). Male, with his first vaccine dose and deworming completed.

O Mourinho foi resgatado das ruas, juntamente com os seus manos. Ainda estamos a apanhar o resto da ninhada, por isso aos poucos e poucos estão a ser reunidos no nosso abrigo e a recuperar a sua saúde para estarem prontos para adoção. O Mourinho é um cachorrinho que apesar de muito medo, é muito fotogénico e lindíssimo (as fotos não fazem jus à sua beleza). Sabemos que com paciência e muito amor, será um patudinho que vai crescer e revelar a sua linda personalidade. Tem cerca de 3 meses e ficarão de porte médio (não podemos garantir o tamanho certo). Macho, com primeira dose da vacina e desparasitação tomada. Mealhada, Aveiro Para adotar contacte o 918570448

About Mourinho

What life with Mourinho looks like

Mourinho is a medium-sized puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Quatro Patas e Focinhos in Portugal.

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 Mourinho, answered.

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