NELINHA

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy · 4 months

A Nelinha e os seus irmãos foram abandonados no abrigo juntamente com a mãe, Nina. São cachorros muito doces e meigos, um pouco tímidos no primeiro contacto, mas ganham confiança rapidamente. São ainda muito jovens, têm muito para aprender e, com tempo e carinho, irão certamente deixar para trás este início de vida menos feliz. Numa família, cada um deles terá a oportunidade de ganhar confiança e revelar toda a sua personalidade. Dão-se muito bem com outros cães e são muito brincalhões. A Nelinha será entregue vacinada, desparasitada e com microchip.

About NELINHA

What life with NELINHA looks like

NELINHA is a medium-sized puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at O Cantinho da Milu in Lisbon.

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 NELINHA, answered.

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