Adopt Nando

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

Nando arrived at our shelter on September 29, 2025. From the first day, he displayed a cheerful and energetic personality. He is a social dog who loves interacting with both people and other dogs, and he especially enjoys walks and any activity that allows him to move and explore. He has a very active temperament, ideal for families or individuals who enjoy a dynamic lifestyle and are willing to dedicate time to play, exercise, and stimulation. Even when he relaxes, Nando shows his softer side: he seeks closeness, affection, and enjoys quiet companionship. He is a dog that needs attention, activity, and affection, and in return, offers a charming personality and a great disposition to coexist and share moments with his future family.

Nando llegó a la protectora el 29 de septiembre de 2025. Desde el primer día ha mostrado una personalidad alegre y llena de energía. Es un perro sociable, al que le encanta interactuar tanto con personas como con otros perros, y disfruta especialmente de los paseos y de cualquier actividad que le permita moverse y explorar. Tiene un carácter muy activo, ideal para familias o personas que disfruten de un ritmo de vida dinámico y estén dispuestas a dedicarle tiempo para juegos, ejercicio y estímulos. Aun así, cuando se relaja, Nando saca su lado más cariñoso: busca cercanía, mimos y disfruta mucho de la compañía tranquila. Es un perro que necesita atención, actividad y afecto, y que, a cambio, ofrece una personalidad encantadora y una gran disposición para convivir y compartir momentos con su futura familia.

About Nando

What life with Nando looks like

Nando is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Protectora Villena in Spain.

An young 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 Spain

Spanish protectoras generally include sterilization, all vaccinations, microchip ID, and EU pet passport in the adoption fee (typically €250–€400 for a dog, €100–€180 for a cat). Many maintain partnerships with rescue transport providers across the EU.

Frequently asked

Adopting Nando, answered.

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