PINOCHO

Mixed Breed · Female

PINOCHO El Pinocho is a beautiful puppy, who is barely two years old. We don't know much about his past or how he was treated where he lived before, but we can put our hand on the fire when we think that probably not very well because he shows quite insecure and shy with everyone. ❤️‍🩹 👤With people he doesn't know at all, he is initially shy and insecure, but you can gradually win him over with the help of food. Once he knows you a bit, he is not so scared and doesn't run away, but it's noticeable that he still feels insecure. 🐕 Due to his insecurities, he hasn't gone out for a walk yet, we are making a lot of progress in his shyness towards us, when we can put him a harness and go out of the animal shelter we will explain! 🏡 We have not yet been able to test him in the city, because of his fears, everything makes us think that he probably feels more comfortable in a rural environment, but we cannot rule out that he surprises us and is actually an urbanite. 🐶 He is suitable with other dogs, curious and playful with them. At the animal shelter he has interacted in the play area with different types of dogs and has not shown any fear or aggressiveness. We think it would be good for him to have a furry brother who can provide security and trust. 🐱 We have not yet tested him with cats. 💊 He is negative for leishmania.

Per a més informació clica al botó ADOPTA'M El Pinocho és un bodegueret preciós, que amb prou feines té els dos anys d’edat. No sabem gaire res del seu passat ni com el devien tractar allà on vivia abans, però podem posar la mà la foc quan pensem que segurament no gaire bé perquè es mostra bastant insegur i tímid amb tothom. ❤️‍🩹 👤Amb les persones que no coneix de res, de primeres, es mostra tímid i insegur però te’l pots anar guanyant mica en mica amb l’ajuda del menjar. En quant et coneix ja una mica no es mostra tant poruc i no et fuig, però es nota que segueix sentint-se insegur. 🐕 Degut a les seves inseguretats, encara no ha sortit de passeig, estem fent molts avenços en la seva timidesa vers nosaltres, en quan puguem posar-li un arnés i sortir del refugi us explicarem! 🏡 A ciutat encara no l’hem pogut provar, per les seves pors tot ens fa pensar que segurament se senti més còmode a un entorn rural, però no podem descartar que ens sorprengui i sigui tot un urbanita. 🐶 És apte amb altres gossos, es curiós i juganer amb ells. Al refugi ha interaccionat al pati d’esbarjo amb diferents perfils de gossos i no ha mostrat cap mena de por ni agressivitat. Creiem que seria bo que tingués un germà pelut que li pugui aportar seguretat i confiança. 🐱 Amb gats encara no l’hem provat. 💊 És negatiu en leishmania. QUINS PASSOS HAS DE SEGUIR PER ADOPTAR-ME?

About PINOCHO

What life with PINOCHO looks like

PINOCHO is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at APAN — Protectora d in Spain.

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 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 PINOCHO, answered.

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