Quim

Mixed Breed · Male · 5 years

Characteristics: Vaccinated, dewormed, and neutered. I am Quim, Quinzinho to my friends, and now I have many. I never expected in my life to have so many friends, so much comfort, and no one to harm me. They still don't quite understand what happened to me that day, but they think I was hit by a car and rolled on the ground, as well as having a broken leg, my body was also scraped and cut. Anyone who touched me gave a lot of trouble to the two ladies who rescued me, and I even bit one. I think I have already apologized. If I knew what I know now, I would have surrendered right away, I wouldn't have made those collars! Who knew. Now I have a bed and meals, and they even give me chicken. Long live luxury! Unfortunately, I suffer from heart issues.

Características: Vacinado, desparasitado e esterilizado. Sou o Quim, o Quinzinho para os amigos e agora tenho muitos. Nunca esperei na minha vida ter tantos amigos, tanto conforto e não ter ninguém a fazer-me mal. Ainda não perceberam bem o que me aconteceu naquele dia, mas acham que fui atropelado e rolei pelo chão, pois além da minha pata estar partida eu tinha o corpo esfolado e cortado. Ai de quem me tocasse, e dei muito trabalho às 2 senhoras que me resgataram, e ainda mordi numa. Acho que já lhe pedi desculpa. Se eu soubesse o que sei hoje, tinha-me entregado logo, não fazia aquelas fitas! Sabia lá eu. Agora tenho cama e mesa e até franguinho me dão. Viva o luxo! Infelizmente sofro do coração. Também disponível para apadrinhamento !

About Quim

What life with Quim looks like

Quim is a small 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.

Note from the shelter: Heart condition

🇵🇹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 Quim, answered.

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