Phoebe

Spanish Mastiff · Female · Adult · 6 years

Phoebe is een prachtige Mastin Español met een groot hart en een sterke band met mensen. Ze is ontzettend lief, knuffelig, en altijd op zoek naar affectie. Na een jaar bij ons verblijft ze nog steeds met hoop op een vaste plek waar ze kan genieten van liefde en aandacht. Ze is slim en leert snel, vooral als ze vertrouwen in haar baasje heeft. Phoebe houdt van beweging en uitdaging, maar kan ook heerlijk ontspannen op haar kussen. Ze heeft een beschermend instinct en waakt trouw over haar thuis, wat haar tot een uitstekende waakhond maakt. Toch is ze vriendelijk naar mensen en ontdooit snel, vooral als je haar laat zien dat je haar leuk vindt. Phoebe zoekt een thuis waar zij de enige hond is. Ze is dol op mensen, maar andere honden kunnen voor haar een uitdaging zijn. Ze heeft een ervaren baasje nodig die haar stevig kan begeleiden en helpen om haar grenzen te bewaken. Phoebe kan soms onzeker zijn rond andere honden, wat zich kan uiten in dominant gedrag. Daarom zoeken we iemand die haar met geduld en vastberadenheid kan ondersteunen. Als je op zoek bent naar een trouwe, mensgerichte hond die graag je metgezel wordt, maar ook de ruimte en leiding nodig heeft, dan is Phoebe jouw match! Phoebe verdient eindelijk haar eigen plekje, waar ze haar geweldige persoonlijkheid volledig kan laten zien.

About Phoebe

What life with Phoebe looks like

Phoebe is a large adult spanish mastiff dog waiting at ACE / SHIN (Animal Care Espana) in Spain.

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 Spain

Spanish protectoras generally include sterilization, all vaccinations, microchip ID, and EU pet passport in the adoption fee. Many maintain partnerships with rescue transport providers across the EU.

Frequently asked

Adopting Phoebe, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Phoebe?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. ACE / SHIN (Animal Care Espana) handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Phoebe on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Phoebe if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — ACE / SHIN (Animal Care Espana) 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Phoebe 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 Phoebe 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 ACE / SHIN (Animal Care Espana) early rather than rehoming privately; they know Phoebe 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 (NL). 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.
