Nairobi

Mixed Breed · Female

A Nairobi is one of those animals who chooses happiness every day. Friendly with other animals and affectionate, she adapts well and enjoys being part of a group. She loves to go out, each outing is a happy moment, an opportunity to explore the world with curiosity and enthusiasm. Nairobi has a chronic condition (at the level of the chewing muscles) that requires regular medication. This condition has not taken away her will to live, nothing takes away her good mood, the shine in her eyes or her ability to love. She is a real warrior!! She needs a committed family, that understands that caring is also loving, and that medication is part of this commitment. She is looking for a responsible, informed home with a available heart. A place where she can continue to go out, share moments... and live with the joy she has never lost. 📅 Date of birth:

About Nairobi

What life with Nairobi looks like

Nairobi is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Associacao Midas in Portugal.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Nairobi, answered.

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