Patrick

Mixed Breed · Male · 1 year

Breed: Podengo cross (adult): ± 15kg Characteristics: Vaccinated and dewormed I've heard that many people like Podengos. I am a Podengo from my mother's side and a Rafeiro from my father's side. We were separated from our mother and left here at the animal rescue association Bianca. In fact, I think it was the best thing that happened to us. If you want a deliciously adorable and devoted little dog, then I'm already here, or one of my brothers. We are perfect.

Raça: cruzado de Podengo Peso (adulto): ± 15kg Características: Vacinado e desparasitado Ouvi dizer por aí que há muita gente que gosta de podengos. Eu sou um podengo da parte da mãe e rafeiro da parte do pai. Separaram-nos da nossa mãe e abandonaram-nos aqui na Associação Bianca. Na verdade acho que foi o melhor que nos aconteceu. Se quer um cãozinho deliciosamente meigo e dedicado, então já aqui estou, ou algum dos meus irmãos. Nós somos perfeitos. Também disponível para apadrinhamento !

About Patrick

What life with Patrick looks like

Patrick is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Bianca APS 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 Patrick, answered.

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