NANA

Female · Adult · 6 years

A NANA was found on the street and, although it had a microchip, its owner could not be contacted. It was taken to a municipal dog shelter and, after the required period, became available for adoption. NANA has a wonderful temperament. It is very sociable and loves human attention. It is not at all shy, on the contrary, it is quite confident, does not worry about anything and shows curiosity about everything new. It walks well on a leash. We hope it is already used to living in a home. NANA is friendly with other dogs. It runs happily and plays with them. NANA will be delivered vaccinated, dewormed, spayed, and with a microchip.

A Nana foi encontrada na rua e, embora tivesse microchip, a sua tutora não pôde ser contactada. Foi levada para um canil municipal e, após cumprido o tempo regulamentar, ficou disponível para adoção. A Nana tem um temperamento maravilhoso. É muito sociável e adora atenção humana. Não é nada tímida, pelo contrário, é bastante confiante, não se preocupa com nada e mostra curiosidade por tudo o que é novo. Passeia muito bem à trela. Esperamos que já esteja habituada a viver num lar. A Nana é amigável com outros cães. Corre feliz e brinca com eles. A Nana será entregue vacinada, desparasitada, esterilizada e com microchip.

About NANA

What life with NANA looks like

NANA is a large adult dog waiting at O Cantinho da Milu in Lisbon.

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.

Frequently asked

Adopting NANA, answered.

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