Roman

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

Roman is brother to Brian, who is also up for adoption. Both appeared near the animal shelter and have been waiting for a home ever since. Despite being a big boy, he's incredibly noble and good. He loves playing with other dogs, especially his brother Brian, with whom he has the most fun. They make a very funny pair 🙂 Roman is a healthy dog; he has no diseases or ongoing treatments as of today.

Roman es hermano de Brian, que también está en adopción. Ambos aparecieron cerca del refugio y desde entonces están esperando un hogar. Todo lo que tiene de grandullón, lo tiene de noble y de bueno. Le encanta jugar con otros perros, en especial con su hermano Brian con el que más disfruta. Son una pareja muy graciosa 🙂 Roman es un perro sano, no tiene ninguna enfermedad ni tratamiento a día de hoy.

About Roman

What life with Roman looks like

Roman is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at UPRODEA (Unión Protectora de Animales) 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 (typically €250–€400 for a dog, €100–€180 for a cat). Many maintain partnerships with rescue transport providers across the EU.

Frequently asked

Adopting Roman, answered.

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