PER

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 10 years

PER was found on the street and taken to a municipal dog shelter, where he lived for several months. We were then asked for help to take the animal in and promote him for adoption. PER is nervous and has a particular taste for ankles! He attacks even! It is not easy to gain his trust. Only an experienced and patient family. However, he is sociable with other dogs. PER will be delivered vaccinated, dewormed, neutered, and with a microchip.

O Per foi encontrado na rua e levado para um canil municipal, onde viveu vários meses. Foi-nos depois pedido ajuda para receber o animal e divulgá-lo para adoção. O Per é nervoso e tem um gosto particular por tornozelos! Ataca mesmo! Não é fácil ganhar a confiança dele. Só uma família experiente e paciente. Contudo ele é sociável com outros cães. O Per será entregue vacinado, desparasitado, esterilizado e com microchip.

About PER

What life with PER looks like

PER is a small senior mixed breed dog waiting at O Cantinho da Milu in Lisbon.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

Note from the shelter: Behavioral issues - bites ankles, nervous temperament, requires experienced handler

🇵🇹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 PER, answered.

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