Rambo

Unknown

Rambo had a good friend whom he cared for and protected. However, he experienced a setback and was unable to care for him for several years. He left the dog in his family's care until he found out that it was being mistreated. Rambo took the dog back but couldn't keep it himself, so he gave it to us to find a new family who would take good care of it again. It is very loving and enjoys giving you hugs and lickings. He is wonderful and deserves a permanent home.

Rambo tenía un amito bueno, lo cuidaba y lo protegía pero, tuvo un bajón y no pudo tenerlo durante varios años y lo dejo al cuidado de su familia hasta que se entero de que estaba siendo maltratado. Lo recogió, pero no podía tenerlo y nos lo cedió para que le buscáramos una familia que volviera a cuidarlo, Es amoroso, le encanta abrazarte y darte lametazos, es buenísimo y merece un nuevo hogar definitivo Mi/M

About Rambo

What life with Rambo looks like

Rambo is a medium-sized adult dog waiting at NuevaVida Adopciones Madrid in Madrid.

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 Rambo, answered.

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