PICO

Pointer · Male · Senior · 18 years

PICO entered in poor condition, directly to the veterinarian who is currently overseeing its recovery. It's a little better, but surely its age and lack of veterinary care have taken their toll.

About PICO

What life with PICO looks like

PICO is a senior pointer dog waiting at Animals Sense Sostre in Spain.

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.

🇪🇸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 PICO, answered.

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