How do I contact the shelter about Muki?

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 Muki on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Muki 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 Muki 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 Muki 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 Muki 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.

Muki

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

I am very happy and have lots of energy. I love to play and run. Birthday: 14.05.2021 size: medium My life story: I was taken to the shelter in May 2022 to look for my owners. I had entered a house in the Mexilhoeira-Grande area and stayed there. But those people could not keep me. I ended up in the shelter because my owners never came to take me back. My temperament: I am very affectionate and always call for attention. Sometimes I am a bit clumsy because I always want to climb on people and other dogs, but I am still young, and very big and awkward. Also, no one has ever taught me to have manners. But I am affectionate with everyone, people and dogs, and I like to kiss everyone. I love to walk and play. I would like to have a family that gives me a lot of attention and has time to play with me and teach me to behave, because I know I need to learn good manners, but they will not regret it because I am a very gentle dog and have a good heart.

Eu sou muito alegre e tenho imensa energia. Adoro brincar e correr. Data de nascimento: 14.05.2021 Porte: médio A minha história de vida: eu fui levado para o abrigo em maio de 2022 para procurarem os meus donos. Tinha entrado numa casa na zona da Mexilhoeira-Grande e ali fiquei. Só que aquelas pessoas não poderam ficar comigo. Acabei por ficar no abrigo pois os meus donos não apareceram para me levarem de volta. O meu temperamento: eu sou muito carente e estou sempre a chamar atenção das pessoas. Às vezes sou um pouco trapalhão pois quero sempre subir para cima das pessoas e dos outros cães, mas ainda sou novo, e muito grande e desajeitado. Além disso, nunca ninguém me ensinou a ter maneiras. Mas sou afetuoso com todos, pessoas e cães, e gosto de dar beijinhos a todos. Adoro passear a brincar. Gostava de ter uma família que me desse muita atenção e tivesse tempo para brincar comigo e me ensinasse a comportar-me pois sei que preciso de aprender a ter boas maneiras, mas não se iriam arrepender pois sou um cão muito dócil e tenho um bom coração.

About Muki

What life with Muki looks like

Muki is a extra-large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Cadela Carlota & Companhia in Portugal.

An 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.

🇵🇹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.
